Hard Work

For the past couple of months, I've been searching for an escape from my old place of work, Staples. I did however, want to stay away from the somewhat wrist slitting world of retail and went looking for a warehouse or even construction job.

Well, after months of searching, I found my new job. I now work on foundations for houses! ( I beleive its called cribbing) Now, at the time, I was just happy that I had found a new job. I was warned that this job was tough but the pay could potentially be good.

After going to pick up my work material (200 bucks total). I went on to my first day. My first day was 12 hours. When I got home, I took a shower and just went to bed cause i literally could hardly move.

Supposedly, this job can pay anywhere from as low as$5 an hour to as high as $70 an hour depending how hard you work on the job, how fast and how well you get it done.

Right now, I am locked in at $10 an hour for two weeks while I learn how to do the job and to get conditioned for the work I need to do. My boss says that Ill be getting a pretty good work out everyday until the end of the summer. I dont know wether to call that a plus or a minus at this point, but we will soon find out.

Until then, this is Falcon, Signing off.
