1:27 AM

So yeah, it's pretty late. I don't know why I tend to stay up so late, but for some reason I just couldn't sleep tonight. Anywho, today was a pretty good day. I'm really loving my new job, it's probably the first time in a LONG time that I don't mind going to work. I'm actually finding myself looking forward to it - to a certain extent ha-ha. Crazy concept that one could actually like a job, huh?

Random:

Larry: Shaun, they're looking for someone that espeaka espanol.

Shaun: Dang, ok ok. I'll take it. *picks up phone* Bueno? En que le puedo ayudar?

Confused lady with a thick asian accent: Um...do you speak english?

Shaun: Yes...Did you not need a someone that speaks spanish?

Lady: No, I said to the other guy that I was seeking Danielle. Does she work here?

Sooo...big gulps huh? Well see you later!

I just woke up, so this might make no sense whatsoever. But I'm bored, and facebook was being boring. Then I remembered I had started this awesome blog a long time ago, and have not written on it since.

Things are going pretty well, I work at a credit union now and it is sweet. Well, I guess my definition of sweet is any sort of job that's not a *shudder* call center, but it is a pretty fun job. Yesterday the computers were down for most of the day, so all we could do was sit there and entertain ourselves. I.E. making paper airplanes and chucking them at the girls in the other two windows. The branch and assistent manager decided to go shopping at Target (they go shopping randomly every day, regardless of the computers working or not working. *Note to self, become a branch manager*)

Then this really awnry lady came into the branch, and she just happened to choose my window. Lucky me. She wanted me to cash a check for her, which the most we can do is give her 100 dollars and deposit the rest while the computers are down. When I told her this, she freaked. She started swearing and saying she wanted to end her account with us right now, which I also couldn't do because of the whole computer thing. I tried to explain to her that there was another branch a mile from our location that would be happy to help her, but that just made her angrier, and she threatened to call the police on our "illegitimate business" that would steal peoples money and refuse to give it back. So luckily the branch manager came back just then, and was able to approve us cashing the whole check. The lady complained to her the whole time we were doing it about what poor service this was, and how the credit union always seemed to have computer glitches when she came in - yeah right. After she finally turned around and started to leave, the branch manager caught mine and the teller next to me's attention, and behind the counter flipped the lady off. Repeatadly. It was pretty funny. And then the lady had trouble getting into her truck, setting off the alarm and couldn't seem to figure out how to turn it off. Finally 3 or 4 minutes later she just drives off with the alarm still going off; everyone in the branch was lol'ing. And ROTFLing, or however you say the stupid textish for laughing hysterically.

Well anyways, that was my day yesterday. And I get to go back today :D I love it though, my branch is awesome. It's me, one other guy and about 10 girls. That's 5 for each of us. Well more like 3 for each of us, the others are engaged or already married. Oh well.

Allison a las 23:15, el 17 de septiembre
Alas, it is only possessed by flirtatious, beautiful women. And slightly related to the force.
