I’ve noticed for a couple days the strong smell of cat urine in the living room. I thought I had fixed it but it seems to keep coming back. Thanks to Mr. BLU I am dealing with this. Back when he was broken, he peed on anything and everything. We tried constantly to keep the house clean but obviously you don’t see him every moment of every day. I am glad I got him fixed. One of the many places he went was in the air ducts. Well that could be the problem. I got that cleaned out and the smell is still back. I’m waiting until darkness falls and then out comes the black light and it should help me figure out this mystery. I really want to kill him because that smell is not only foul, it stirs up my allergies. Everyone but me (the human) seems unaffected by it. Cats, they are a lot of work!
I had my phone interview this morning. Things went very well and the lady I spoke with was down to earth, relaxed and empathized with me on my circumstances. She told me that she was going to pass my application along to the hiring manager and that I should hear something from her next week. They (the hiring managers) like to do their own phone interviews and then if they think you’re a fit, they will bring you in. This is a great opportunity, pay is not an issue but it would be a little bit of a commute everyday. All perfectly okay, this sounds like a great place to work based upon what I heard today. I’ve got my fingers crossed.
A few minutes after 2 the phone rang and it was the recruiter I was supposed to meet with. She called but didn’t leave a message. Waited a minute or two and called back, then left a message. She wanted to know if I was on my way or if I needed to reschedule. I didn’t talk to her and have no plans on returning her call. She promised to send me her address and well I can’t go someplace that I don’t know where it is. The bigger reason here is that this is a total time waster. She will see me for 15 or 20 minutes and then I will never hear from her again. Meanwhile I have driven 30 or 40 miles one way and wasted my time. I see no reason to go any further with this. I mean maybe I am looking at this all wrong but this has been my experience and I figure why waste my time. Deal with the companies that are hiring directly.
Speaking of which that place that said I wasn’t a cultural fit. Well one of their recruiters reached out to me on a social job network. He said I would be a good fit for the position. I took one look at him and figured he would be a good fit for me. Man, so cute. Anyway I wrote him and told him that I was already submitted and rejected. I really wanted to work for them, but it didn’t look like that was going to happen.
I got me a good nap on today. I woke up to the sound of a lawn mower. I knew it was my neighbor and jerked my head up (a slight neck injury occurred from that) and headed to the window. I expected to see a fit and trim young buck shirtless mowing the grass like last time. Instead I saw a fat fuck in his moo moo mowing the lawn. Holy crap talk about buzz kill. Perhaps better luck next time, if I am here to see it. Hopefully, I am not. I’d rather be back at work. I can find cute guys to look at on the computer.
I was all set to go see Melissa McCarthy’s new film but decided to delay that until tomorrow. I just lounged around the house today, watching TV. I dug into the movie collection and dug up 3 Day Weekend. It’s a good gay film and helped to pass some of the time today. I did little things and tried to get rid of that odor while the movie was on. I found a toy that Big Boy was interested in, so we got to play a little bit today. I never knew that he had it in him. I always figured he was worn out and tired. Who knew!
Yesterday I got a call from the Government about a complaint I submitted regarding my former employer. Turns out what they always thought was illegal is perfectly legal and I really had no complaint. I almost feel like telling them, but why should I be helpful. I have also been thinking about exposing my old boss and the affair he is having with one of the office workers. I would of course be telling his son. Part of me says yeah, go for the gold and maybe get the bitch fired. The rest of me says let things be and let her continue to bilk them. If she does ever get fired, she has one hell of a sexual harassment claim and who knows what other kind of trouble she can stir up. I would like to see them made miserable and the business crumble. I mean it is total bullshit that I am sitting here unemployed. It’s all because the lady my boss was screwing didn’t like me. She got me fired and planted ideas in his head. He of course is love struck and will do anything to keep her legs open and available to him, so what she wants is what she gets. The business in fact isn’t going out of business, they are actually expanding and everyone’s jobs are now secure. If I would be there I would reap that benefit. While I am happy to be free of the negativity, toxic environment and petty bullshit – I still would like to be collecting a paycheck. Plus the idea of things getting busy again would be appealing. Ah well, I have no choice but to move on. Think about my situation, then tell me what you would do. I’m curious.
Tomorrow will be the last work day of the week, since Friday is Independence Day (a holiday) here in the US. Most businesses are closed and people will either work 1/2 days tomorrow or at the very least get out of work early. I have nothing scheduled for tomorrow. I am hoping that I get invited to some friends house for the holiday. Otherwise, it will be a boring old time here. Given my last experience I won’t be soon to return to my mom’s place. Who wants burnt burgers and no BBQ Sauce, not me.
Since I have stayed in my hope for tomorrow is that I can have some fun at the movies, get answers regarding food stamps and just have a good day. Next week is open. I will have to reschedule my ‘unemployment training’ on how to go back to work. Another time waster but they won’t be paying me unemployment until I complete this little task. So I will be working on getting that rescheduled and hope that I get more calls asking for interviews next week. Until then it’s seek and apply.
I hope all is well in your world. Talk with you peeps later.
