Jobs, Books, etcetera…

Remember that Brew City job interview? The job I really, really, want to get? I overestimated the efficiency of the Milwaukee County Transit System so I missed the job interview. Apparently it takes more than half an hour to get to downtown Milwaukee from UWM, even when you’re only traveling 4 miles… But hey it wasn’t all bad; I called from the bus and re-scheduled the interview for next Wednesday at 3pm, and when I went to pick up a shirt I had ordered over there (which I need to go back and exchange, I guess I’m large on t-shirts but XL on button down shirts) the guy that sold it to me was actually one of the head managers at the office, and he told me it was all cool. Hell he even said “So you’re the Abraham that’s gonna work for me?” Heh. One thing that still bothers me (being raised catholic left me predisposed to torturing myself over every little mundane thing) is that I know I would’ve probably been hired on the spot, hence I would’ve worked Summerfest, hence I would’ve gotten in for free. Oh well. Anyway, I’m not putting all my eggs in one basket, so I got another interview tomorrow in the downtown area at 2:30pm. I guess I’ll have to skip lunch tomorrow to get there on time…

In other news I have recently gotten into the habit of reading the books on which my favorite movies are based. I finished Trainspotting today and I’m going to start reading Fight Club either tonight or tomorrow. After that I want to get Porno, Irvine Welsh’s sequel to Trainspotting. I just need to know what Begbie is going to want to do to Renton after what he did to him...
