Poison

Sorry for the glum posts as of late.  If you read the very first post of this blog you probably already know that I'm about to talk about my job.

I've been here for 5 going on 6 years.  The first two years I was just a DJ and life was pretty good.   Then one day our Engineer left, through no fault of his own I didn't get the training I should have.  We had had another replacement lined up to take his place but the guy left us high and dry.  They turned to me saying "you can just call in people as needed, if you think you can handle it go for it" that kept escalating less outsourcing more me. This was still pretty ok but at some point I was just getting raises for being here not really for the quality of work (least thats what I assume by the reaction of the owner).

I am now to the point where I get out of my car in the parking lot and my test physically tightens, I get incredibly depressed and just become a general Eeyore of sorts.

"Why don't you quit?"

Well I'm also in school.  I have actually built my schedule for the past 3 years around my job (which is a pretty bad move and should never be done).  But this job allows a decent amount of flexibility... most days.  I have the time as a DJ to finish up homework... usually.

Here are the types of issues I have to deal with.

My email doesn't work.  This was on a 20Gb computer and the person had 5k emails in the outbox and 7k in the inbox.

Windows says a program unexpectedly crashed.  "What do I do"

"Where did the headphone go."  They were within arms reach.



I don't know maybe I'm getting burned out from all my schoolwork (which hasn't been all that much) My job, trying to plan a few events, worrying about trying to get enough money to break my lease, and the documentary which is starting to get some test footage.  But isn't actually getting much of any support.

Now I do have the proper test version uploaded so here it is.  Right now I'm working on where to film the interviews I'm thinking of doing it in the car but I'm not sure how much that would distract me while driving.

Kinda feeling like this guy lately.

Hopefully after a meeting I have today I'll be a bit more upbeat about things.  Hopefully I can have a script ready for the interviews tomorrow.
