Honestly, how do some people even remember how to breathe?
Currently 3rd shift at Wal-Mart is really understaffed. Tom went to the Jefferson store. Bruce went to Jefferson. Julie is going to Jefferson. And Rob went to jail. I don't know if he still is in jail or not, but either way I know he isn't coming back.
So far they've hired one person. They've tried to hire other people but most of them are failing their drug tests.
Anyway so they hired this guy named Ben. From here on out Ben shall be referred to as Dumbshit.
Dumbshit is without a doubt the stupidest person I have ever met. Now I know what you're thinking, "But Kyle you think everyone is the stupidest person you have ever met!" True. But Dumbshit takes the cake. Allow me to describe him to you. First off he's from Janesville.(Huge tip off right there) He's about my height with a bit of beer gut. He wears Nascar shirts and hats everyday. And wears baggy jeans meant for 12 year olds. He's missing some teeth and he smells horrible.
My job is very very very simple. A monkey could do it. All I do is take a pallet of goods to it's respective department. Then I take the boxes off and empty their contents onto the proper place on the shelves. If there's no room you get an empty pallet and put the box on it, this is known as an "Overstock Pallet" for obvious reasons. So clearly, no matter how stupid someone is they should be able to do this job with little or no difficulty, right?
WRONG! For whatever reason I was given the task of training Dumbshit(By the way I hate training people at any job). So the first night I laid down the basics. I explained to him about the overstock pallet, and how you have to have one overstock pallet for foods and a separate one for liquids. He's been at Wal-Mart for three weeks now and he STILL still puts liquid on the food pallet and vice version. I keep trying to correct him, but he doesn't seem to get it.
I also explained to him that if you go to stock anything and less than half of the box goes out then don't put it out at all. Still, there are boxes on the pallet with one or two things out of them.
When you're first hired by Wal-mart they make you do these things on the computer called CBL's. Basically they're like powerpoints with quizzes at the end. There's about 2 or 3 dozen total. It took me to about 6 hours to do all of them. Dumbshit has spent two entire shifts(16 hours) on them and still hasn't finished them.
When I showed him how to right up damaged goods he asked me "Whats a UPC number? is that my employee number or something?" I said "No, it's the number next to the bar code." He looked around on the bottle he was trying to write up and started to write down an encoded expiration date.
Ok, but here is what really pissed me off today. I was in pets today, and It was the last half hour of the day. My manager wanted me to put the pets pallets I finished up onto the shelves using the forklift. So I say to Dumbshit "Hey can you help me clean up pets?" He says sure. So I tell him "Bring back the pallet with the bags of dog food first." He says ok.
A few minutes later he returns, not with the pallet I asked him to bring back, but with the garbage.
Seriously, how has someone this stupid managed to survive this long? This guy has kids. His kids should be taken away promptly before he gets the anti-freeze and kool-aid mixed up.

Ahem.
Good Afternoon non-existant readers of my livejournal.
I started working 3rd shift at wal-mart. I don't mind it. I don't have much trouble staying up until 7 in the morning, and the only people in the store are the weird people I work with. And I'll be honest, people who work 3rd shift are fucking weird.
Besides that nothing really exciting or interesting. Allie and I have our apartment and thats all going pretty good.
I do however have a humorous story. Yesterday I was walking to the gas station like I do just about everyday. And of course I'm smoking a cigarette on my way there. Well this little kid yells at me "That's bad for you!" I chuckled a little bit and continued walking. Then when I got to the end of the road the kid yells "You're gonna die!!!"
The End.

Welll... I need two more roommates. I'm kind of fucked. But my mom is being really understanding about our roommate situation which is cool.
Otherwise the house is still all good times.
Winter however is not good times. 94 Accords and snow do not mix at all.

Allllright...
I moved into the house saturday night. Marcus moved in saturday night(or sunday morning depending on how you look at it). And everyone else is moving in sometime within the next week or two.
So far the house has been all good times. Seriously...renting this house is going to be fucking awesome.
Also there's a possible Kyle and Marcus housewarming party on saturday. We're probably going to have a couple housewarming parties. Ha.
Ok paper writing time.

Alright I haven't updated in a little while but whatever a lot has been going on.
School could be going better but oh well.
I'm still incredibly excited. I finally got the balls to talk to my mom about renting the old house and she actually went for it and said it was a good idea. So yea I've got to finish figuring out who all my roommates are going to be though. Nick is most likely backing out due to unforseen financial difficulties. Brad is for sure which is awesome. Hopefully Jesse will be for sure and I've got to talk to Marcus some more tomarrow, but I'm pretty sure he will move in.
I still have a couple weeks until December 1st when our first rent is due, so I still have time to figure everything out.
The point is I am incredibly excited to rent this fucking house.

Sunday I finally moved out of the old house.
I don't like the new house at all. I moved into the basement so I can be away from everything.
My mom is driving me absolutely fucking nuts. After living by myself last week all I can think about now is moving out. I'm not even kidding.

I went out to Culvers with Allie today because I haven't seen her in awhile.
Later on I was at Ross's house and Allie came over to hang out with Rilea. And Ross and was trying to think of someone who could defeat Spawn because I was arguing that Spawn is THE best and could defeat anyone if need be. Anyway Ross was pretty stumped and Allie came in and I told her what we were talking about and expected her to say we were stupid or that i was a nerd or something and she said "I wouldn't fuck with Spawn he can kick anybody's ass."
And this sounds really dumb but that reminded me of a lot of things I really liked about Allie and i think I just overlooked the really little things she always did. I don't know it's really hard to explain. It just reminded me that Allie always thought my nerdy habits and interests were cute. And it reminded me of how she'd let me tell her all about Spawn and Walking Dead and Y the Last Man and how she'd watch zombie movies with me. And I guess I forgot how much those really little things had meant to me at the time. I can't really imagine a lot of girls that would think my comic book reading is anything besides stupid and I cant think of any girls I know that would sit down with me and watch Dead Alive or even Dawn of the Dead.
It's really hard for me to explain, but I really appreciate those really little things like that she used to do.

Let's see...
I took my Philosphy test today. I used to think i didn't get hang overs, but apparently I do. Just not bad ones. So that was fun.
I skipped English because we're not even fucking doing anything in that class today.
So I went and got my pay check and cashed it. Then i went to Best Buy because I felt like buying a new Zombie movie, but I already have all the movies they have their(Except for the crappy ones no one wants to watch i.e. Day of the Dead 2.) So I bought the Kids in the Hall DVD instead.
And now I'm home. And of course I have to work until close later. Oh Well.

My car FINALLY works again.
It's so nice to drive my own car again.
And thats all.

Lets see...
My car didn't get fixed last night because greg got the wrong radiator, so he's coming back tomarrow with the right one. HOPEFULLY anyway.
I'm so broke off my ass I just sold one of my guitar amps to G Man, and all I got was $50.
Pignose I will miss you. You were good to me over the years. But you've been replaced by the superior Peavey Valveking 212. But still....I will miss you Pignose GV40.
Otherwise nothing is going on. I have no direction and my life is boring.

I thought that if I took a year off I'd have a better idea of what I wanted to do with my life.
All through high school I really had no idea what I wanted to do.
That entire year off I had no idea what I wanted to do.
And now I'm back in school and I still have no idea what I want to do with my life. I still have no direction and no motivation. It's hard to take school seriously when i still have no idea what I want to do with my life.
If anyone has any suggestions they would be much appreciated because I'm obviously to indecisive to figure out what i want to do. I can't let life pass me by. I'm only 19, but pretty soon I'll be 30 and i still won't know what I want to do.
The future scares the shit out of me.

It's been so long since I've had a smile. I've stayed sad for a such a long while. If you could cheer my up I could learn to love you.
Don't wanna spend the rest of my days in yesterday's daydreams.

Yea my car is still not fixed. Gay. My mom says Greg is coming to fix it tomarrow.
BUT Sarah lent me her car until the weekend so at least I have some wheels for a couple days. So that's a good deal.
Otherwise not a whole lot is going on. I went out to Whitewater tonight and monday night I was out there. Tuesday I worked, and tomarrow and friday I work. But saturday I have off. I dont know, not a whole lot is going on really.
