someone must be out to get me.... Things have been pretty uneventful since my last post where I turned to the dark side, damn cell phone and WoW. Too bad the same can't be said for the past few days.... >.< -_-;;;
So I'll start with Friday morning, started off normal with me waking up at my parent's house after spending the night there Thursday after closing the arcade, shoveling the driveway and Dad driving me to work. Sadly, only that first hour or two awake was normal as when I walked in the bell, Greg asked if I talked to Casey yet, since he said there was some sort of an emergency. So I went to the arcade to see Casey expecting something along the lines of asking me to close or something of the sort since he would do something like that, but this was an actual emergency. Our safe was cleared out sometime between when Paul and I left the night before, and when Casey got in that morning. That made for a GREAT start to the day, dealing with asshole cops and incomptent mall security. And I don't exgarrate by adding the asshole to the last sentence, I was practically crying after being questioned by him. Held my own during the questioning, then pretty much emotionally broke down after he left the store (it was in the bell since I was working at the time and we were behind). So that pretty much had me off my element the whole day, I was functional after 10 - 15 minutes, but the weight of the situation just stayed with me throughout the day. I just wanted to get home, relax and try to clear my head of the situation so I could be somewhat calm. Things can never be that simple.
I got home to see two pieces of mail from the school. First one I opened up was a notice saying I have a refund check waiting for me at student accounts, to which I started cursing at as I had been there last week to pick up a check which had already been sent out (and just arrived at my parents' yesterday), though I later learned that this notice was for another one. I didn't know why I was getting refund checks, my best guess was that it was my student loan but why would I be given any money from that without going to school? My question finally started to get an answer when I opened the next piece of mail. This one was from the regristar's office, and it was my schedule as of when that was printed and sent out. Apparentaly I am currently enrolled as a part time student. What I have figured out is that somewhere along the line, someone accepted my student loan and bill for the semester. I say someone since it sure as hell wasn't me. While I did register for classes as at the time I wasn't sure if I was taking the semester off or not and wanted to be safe and be registered in the case I did decide to attend school this semester, I never accepted the charges for the bill or student loan for the semester. So somehow the loan and bill was accepted so I was enrolled in my classes, and two of the professors for my classes decided to deregister me as many do when students don't show up for the first bunch of classes to free up space for people who want to get in the class. This deregistering dropped me down to part time status, and my refund checks pay the difference between my full time loan and part time status. So now I'm screwed, since if this doesn't get fixed, this will hurt my GPA. Not that last semester didn't do that, but this time it's not my fault. So I'll be raising hell in Culkin Hall (the building with all the offices) getting this shit straightened out. If for some reason those classes can't be taken away and have everything for this semester ewrased or whatnot, then I'm just going to give the two middle fingers to the school, cash in my refund checks, take the Es for my grades, and not continue school. I've already stated I've gotten pretty much everything I want from college minus the degree, and that I wanted to take this semester off to relax and clear my head so I could finish off strong. This situation has done the opposite, since now I'm more stressed out, and it's honestly not worth it if I'm just going to be screwed like this. So hell will be raised on Thursday, as I have that day free for at least the next couple weeks because......
.....I was fired from the arcade yesterday. Pretty much expected though still stings a bit. I am partially to blame because of a slight bit of carelessness (forgot to turn the combination knob) though Casey does say most of it is his fault. He didn't want to fire me, but he didn't have much of a choice, which I understand. At least it wasn't too bad since I had kind of expected it, and that I'll still be able to get free tokens since I was such a great employee. Kinda sucks since I had finally gotten my Namco shirt, but I can't complain too much with still being allowed free tokens for the time being. I say foir the time being not because I fear being cut off from this since I don't abuse the system, but because I don't see any of the staff there being around for too much longer. Once our district manager get's back from vacation, what will probably happen is that Casey will be sent to work in the warehouse since he's a master of fixing up games, and that whoever takes over our store will probably can the rest of the staff eventually. It's really sad that someone decided to rob the store and really fuck things up for everyone working there.
So yeah, I'm pretty fucking pissed off right now. So far in 2005, I've had my house robbed, one of my workplaces robbed, been unwillingly enrolled in school, and fired from a job that I loved. Fucking great start to the year, all I need now is for Kere to screw us over here which will lead us to be kicked out of this house, then this shitty weekend will be complete. >.
