A great time to be working, 8:25 on a Saturday evening and it is pouring with rain and considering it is the middle of April it is feeling cold. I completed an application for another job today, I do not dislike this job but the other one pays about 40% more and the hours sound great, shifts between 8:00 and 20:00 Monday to Friday and some Saturday mornings.
I arrived at work today to discover that as a cost saving measure they are no longer going to pay for a taxi home after a shift that ends at 23:30 because I can get a bus home at midnight. This means that I'll get home about 00:45 instead of about 23:55 by taxi. I hope that I'll still get a taxi after my midnight finishes as there is no reasonable bus home after that time.
I'm off for three days after tonight so if the weather is decent I'll get into my garden and plant out some vegetables.
Work is not too busy today which is good but some of the calls have been weird, (I'll not give any details as the callers deserve confidentiality)
About Me
- John4703
- I am vegan. I do not eat meat or any animal products. I believe that this is one way to reduce my impact on the environment as I know that my diet requires less land and water that one involving meat. I also know that milk and beef production is a major source of greenhouse gasses. I like to keep fit but not by going to a gym I'd rather be in the fresh air. I enjoy cycling to and from work as it is a good way to get some gentle exercise on the way to work and to relax on the way home; it is only about 5 miles each way so not exactly strenuous. I work in a contact centre so spend my working day sitting either talking on the phone or answering emails. I am also helping out a bit with reading the news for a local community radio station, its really enjoyable and very interesting.
