You know how hard it is to find a reasonably inexpensive apartment when you have a dog? They either don’t allow pets at all or they only allow stupid cats. I don’t know about you but most of the time when I go to someone’s place who has a cat the place smells like cat piss. How are cats better? I don’t get it. The place I was thinking about renting from doesn’t allow pets (even though the friend I know who lives there says she has a bird and she has seen people with dogs). Oh well. I will keep looking. I got a line on a place from looking on the internet but they have very narrow office hours during the week when I can’t call so I have to wait till the weekend when they have office hours most of the day. They probably charge $20 a month for “pet rent” which is just a half assed way to collect a $240 non refundable pet deposit per year.

I got an email back from my online application at Duncan Aviation for the “Line Service Representative” position. That’s a fancy name for a guy who fuels and tows around the planes. They need a copy of my driving record by Thursday at 5pm. My record isn’t that bad. the only thing current is the crappy week I had 2 years ago when I got in a wreck and got a speeding/seatbelt ticket within a 6 day period. Hopefully they won’t think that is too bad. The only problem is that it’s hard to get down to take care of this crap during their office hours. I can’t get any time off, especially now since we are so busy. I always have something to do when we get a short lunch or no lunch at all. I’ll figure something out. That’s all I got for now.

Boy time flies doesn’t it? It’s been a month now since I put something up. I guess it’s because I am pretty miserable and don’t have anything new to post. The new boss that I have that I thought was ok turned out to be a total dick. It sucks so bad to go to work now. The guy couldnt manage his way out of a paper bag. Add to that the fact that we are swamped with more work than we can ever finish without working 80 hours a week and me and another guy are the only qualified ones there to do it. I’ve got the flu right now but I am not allowed to call in sick like everyone else can. Apparently I am so important that the place will grind to a halt without me. Funny how when it comes to more money I am not that important at all. That’s the way it is at almost every job I’ve ever had. I put in an application at Duncan Aviation for the fuel team. It’s not what I wanted and it doesn’t pay much more than I get now but I can move up from there and test for my A&P licence and make some decent money. I think I am going to move out of this place. I think having a change of scenery will give me a little boost. I thought about moving back to Columbus but I decided not to. There isn’t really any work there besides factory crap. A friend at work told me about the apartments she lives at in the Havelock area of Lincoln. Only $370 a month for rent for a one bedroom which I can afford and the utilities are cheaper than I pay here even though I pay half the bills here. I just need to have my own place again so I have some say over my own home and have some privacy. Just waiting to hear back from them to see if they allow pets.

As you can see I upgraded the site with the newest version of wordpress. I don’t know if I will stick with this theme or use something totally different but this works for now. You now need to log in to post comments though. Sorry about that but I am getting sick of all the spammers that put up advertisements for texas hold-em, and cialis and other crap in the comments area. That’s all I have for now. I will try to get out of the funk I am in and update more.
