Today's timeline

Post by waahoohah »

4:00 AM - Wake up.
5:00 AM - Make it to work.
5:00 - 5:30 AM- Watch besumedly while bosses argue over where I should be going and whom I should be helping.
5:31 AM - Volunteer to go home. Instead, get sent to help other driver who only has 75 cases of beer to deliver.
5:32 - 10:00 AM - Pretend to work. At some time, I calculate that if we split the case load evenly, the other driver and I will both net $3.07 for each case delivered.
10:00 - 10:45 AM - Gloat about how easy my day was to all the poor peons back at the warehouse.
11:00 AM - Crack first beer of the day. Think about Bloody Marys for lunch.

My job can make for some really horrible days. Today was not one of them.

I spend my days splitting time between anger and indifference.Glad to see someone is living the good life, if only for a day.

Salute.

12 noon - Wake up, scratch balls, fart, go back to sleep
4:31 pm (or so) - First beer of the day
7 pm - Greet Ethiopian singers and my studio partner. Collect paltry studio rent, feign interest for awhile, smoke spliffs, then retire to my office while they work on tunes that I will help mix later
9:14 pm - Open 6th beer
Not a bad day so far and I've got lots of beer left
Cheers!

Just getting started, Slee. I'm in for the long haul. I'm now officially off work (2:10 am), starting on the 2nd sixer of Bock, had a few Grolsch's with the Africans in between, and likely will finish all the beer in the house before I pass out sometime around daylight

Actually, I probably won't make it to daylight, or all the way through the 2nd sixpack of Bock. This stuff is filling, and pretty strong, but I'm not that drunk, just full, plus the 3 or four Grolsch I downed kinda helped to bring the night to an early close.

That's the good (and bad) thing about beer - I can never get really drunk on it anymore, but I never get a hangover.
2 liters of cheap wine, now, that's a horse of a different color...
