I finally did it! I am no longer an employee of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc….. I am no longer the manager of a department severely understaffed and overworked. I no longer have to put up with the lack of respect granted by the coprporate pigs in the largest discount retailer in the world.
I am free of Wal-Mart.
So far so good… had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled… I opted not to be put under. Not too bad… with just the novacaine, i felt only a little pain. Now, I’m on advil…getting some Vicadin (woohoo!!!) Hopefully I won’t need it though.
I had a great day yesterday. I took the day off work to go to the International Auto Expo at the Jaxitz Center in the city. It was awesome. Lots of new vehicles and concept cars. I’ll post a link to all the pictures as soon as I get them up.
In the evening we tracked down the approximate location of a Pirate Radio station operating out of the Bronx. We didnt find their exact location, but have it narrowed down to 2 apartment buildings.
In about a half hour, I have to leave to get my wisdom teeth pulled (arrrrrrgghhhh)…All 4 are coming out. I still have to call my dentist. I didnt realize that when I made an apt for Tuesday to have a filling replaced that I would be pulling the same tooth today. lol
So I finally got in touch with the recruiter today! I got the job 🙂
I begin on the day I get back from vacation. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! (and about time! I’ve been trying to get into the company since 2001!!!!!
I figure it’s a good time to turn my desktop into a Linux Workstation…. My laptop runs XP and is much more capable of gaming/performance computing so I can afford to turn my desktop into a Redhat system.
It’s primary function is to surf the web anyways.
I’ll be able to set it up as a DHCP, SMB and FTP server as well as an experimental development platform for web development
