My first day
June 6th, 2003 at 12:00 amSmithers: Uh, sir, we found the problem. Some idiot threw this in the reactor core.
Homer: [sees charred doughnut] Success!
Burns: You did this? How could you be so irresponsible?
Homer: Eh… it’s my first day!
Burns: Since I’ve never seen you before, maybe it is your first day. Very well, carry on!
[Mr. Burns begins to walk off, when Smithers catches up with him.]
Smithers: Sir, that’s Homer Simpson. He’s been working here for ten years!
Burns: Ohh, really? Why did you think you could lie to me?
Homer: Uh…It’s my first day??!
Burns: Well, why didn’t you say that befor…[realizes] Wait! You’re fired!
I love that quote. And is describes my first day of work pretty well. I honestly don’t know how I can start getting up at 4:45 AM every morning. I guess by going to bed at 10 like I am tonight will be a good start. My job is…well….I don’t know. The pay is far below minimum wage. (Even after tips.) I’m pretty much staying with it because it’s still some source of income and after this, I’ll finally be able to say I have experience.
In other news…um, no other news really =) I think I might have another job lined up for late afternoons, so starting next week, I’ll be working 14 hour days. Oh yippe! Also, I’m trying to best prepare myself for some bad news that I know will be coming sometime soon. I don’t know from where or when, but trust me, it will be here soon enough. I’ll post again tomorrow after work.
