Hello from the Future.

Posted on August 17, 2008 | Leave a comment

I am in Michigan right now for work. Since I’m three hours ahead, does that mean if I publish this now, you will see it in three hours? I think the Internet has time zones too, right?

I’m tired from travelling all day after being at a wedding. I flew into Chicago, drove through Indiana, and here I am. Originally my dad was going to drive us, and we were going to leave the car at the airport. This morning he popped his head into the room to change the plans.

Dad: Mom is going to drop us off instead.
Me: That’s great, but it’s 5:00 AM. Turn off my light and close my door.
Dad: I saw the clock. I thought it said 6:00 AM.
Me: It’s not. Leave me alone for another half hour.
Dad: I was wondering why it was so dark outside.
Me: You’re still here? I’m trying to sleep!

I’m beat, like a little red headed stepchild. See you guys tomorrow.

Off to Work

I’ve got my bags in my car, my maps are printed, and I’ve got my iPod. Thank god I’ve got my iPod! Best Western was kind enough to have local attractions listed on their site when you look at their different motels.

You just click this link to find all the happening places.

See how far down I am typing? There is about five times more white space on the website. I think this is the space, where they normally list the fun things to do in a town. There is this much nothing to do where I will be working. Fortunately Best Western offers high speed Internet access. Now if there was only a way to get there in less than four hours….

Work in the Middle of Nowhere

Posted on September 26, 2007 | Leave a comment

Last time I was working in the middle of nowhere, it was here. You see how there are only the major highways visible in the middle of California? There are tons of food plants in this area. All the money for production plants is in producing with the lowest overhead. So what do they do? They put their plants in the middle of nowhere, so rent is cheaper and so is labor. Cal State Fresno is the closest university around. I wanted out of there so badly, we finished our job and I drove home and almost crashed my car about a hundred times on the way home.

Look where I get to go for work now. That is right. This one is even more in the middle of nowhere, if it’s even possible to more in the middle than the last trip tot he middle of nowhere. Unfortunately this job is a two day job this time. There will be no escaping. Maybe I can stay here when I head up there. Then I can make a lot of money the first night and pay someone else to do my work, maybe one of those bright Cal State Fresno alumni.
