Problems

What would life be without them? I bit the bullet and bought a factory computer, only to discover that the video card was not fit for purpose as a gaming card. I redeemed some geek cred by immediately buying a new mid-level card and a new power supply and installing them myself. When I say not fit for purpose, I mean it was overheating in 20 minutes every time I tried to play something more graphically demanding than Solitaire.

There are problems with Multinational Pizza Corporation as well. We had three drivers leave in a week, two fired and one had given his two weeks notice two weeks ago. This puts the store in a bad position – we are down to five drivers, and two of us are working as little as possible because we have other jobs that we need to focus on. It's looking like it will be another 60 hour week for me this week. On top of that problem, I am seriously burned out on working there. It has gotten to the point where I hate going in, and hate being there. It's started affecting my attitude as well, which I do not care for at all. I've seen other drivers going through this, and I am going to do my best to not be as much of a pain as some of the others have been.

To top it all off, my sinuses are waging war against the rest of my body, resulting in my having had a headache for the last week. It's getting better slowly – at first, it was near the level of a migraine in terms of disabling pain, but now it's down to a dull throb. Still a pain though, and I can't wait for it to get gone.

Maybe next post will be better. I can always hope, at any rate...
