Warehouse manager for a local publishing company.

The_Return 08-11-2006 10:42 AM

I pump gas.

I dont mind it...kinda boring and the hours are kinda nuts (in the course of a normal weekend, I work a total of 24 hours) but the pa isnt bad, and I get most of the week off.

Im trying to get my boss to give me a shift on cash in the store from time to time...I go in and help sometimes if it's slow at the pumps, and Im pretty good at it/enjoy it ALOT more than being cooped up alone in my little booth.

The pay sucks, but after working at a family owned restaurant, there's no way I could switch to corporate.

Niice...

I envy you, i wish i could be writing full time. Im hoping to one day leverage my fiction and my writing for Planet Half Life into something lucrative. Or at least full time.

PR3SSUR3 08-14-2006 06:06 AM

I walk the earth and occasionally stop off to right wrongs, or sometimes wrong rights.

Vodstok 08-14-2006 06:16 AM

With any luck, you look nothing like david carradine...

PR3SSUR3 08-14-2006 06:22 AM

More John Carradine, as Preacher Simms in Cain's Cutthroats.

You and me both. It's hard when you work full time, especially if you want to write novels or screenplays. Between the 9 to 5 and the normal mundane stuff, like mowing the lawn, I'm left little time to do much other than turn out the occasional short story anymore.
