Well let’s see here… it’s time again for another jam-packed adventure of… *ahem*
EET’S SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAL!
Yep… high heat life, baseball, and community service.
So I started my community service on Monday. Let me tell ya… that’s an experience. So, for an hour and a half on Monday… I cleaned a library. Then I smoked. Then I rode around in a city van for about half an hour. Then I emptied public trash cans. Then I threw them in a dumpster. After that… I spent the rest of the time watchin’ my supervisor dig through the trash bags in the dumpster for empty cans and stuff. The fun just never ends for four hours in East Grand Rapids.
Tuesday was a whole other adventure. I cleaned the library again. Watched one of the guys on community service with me try hitting on a couple of librarians. Listened to him and another community service guy talk about starting an escort service and getting a website together for it. Then we rode around in the van for a while. We stopped at a bakery so they could eat. Then we stopped at a liquor store so I could get some smokes. Cleared some dirt from around a fence gate that wouldn’t open all the way. Then we sat on a bench for a while. Then we just sat around in the van while our supervisor spray painted water main cutoffs for repairs.
So I’m paying my debt to society, and the East Grand Rapids library is clean as a whistle.
Beyond that… there’s not really a lot going on. I got to work at one today because one of the guys called in. Then I got my hour lunch at 1:45. I’m closing tonight, and I’m only allowed 2 smoke breaks besides my lunch. This fucking blows. I get another 6 hours and 45 minutes… and only TWO smoke breaks…
Anyway… that’s it. I’m done for the day. I have to punch back in, and try not to punch any customers as I feen for smokes.
Peace out suckas.
and remember… spandex is a privilege, not a right.
