| To put it lightly. ....FUCK Universal Studios |
[Dec. 9th, 2006|11:32 pm] |
I have been done with this job a long time ago.....I used to really enjoy it. I was very content and happy. But now I cannot stand another minute of it while im there. It is a major source of my dissatisfaction for some time. My body has been telling me so for a while. I need another job.
I potentially have a chance to get something real in January as a Graphic Designer where i would make alot of $$$$$. BUt, i need to locate a different thing as well, I dont want to rely on that as my big thing. I don't know why i ever get so caught up in jobs anyways. WE can always find a new job if we don't like it. I don't live to work....
So i sent a couple resumes, but time to send more. Need anything just to get out of this job, until i figure out what to do next. |

| sick as hell |
[Jul. 1st, 2006|07:59 pm] |
im sick with cold/flu whatever in the blasted summer heat. the owner of out company lowered our commission rate from 35% to 33% and raised prices by 20% or so to get higher sales. they think our prices are too low for what we do anyways, which is kinda true. some of my coworkers think our demographic customers won't pay the higher prices (alot of locals and tourists mixed). but Universal increased the owners rent, which is already pretty fucking high. The thing is if the artists aren't making more money, then neither is the company, but Universal may still get their fucking rent.
however our prices are arranged that we will make more income in tips. I hope the owners are right in his assertion that we will have significantly higher numbers.Otherwise im gonna be screwed. |

| trying to get car for mom, don't know what to do |
[Jun. 6th, 2006|11:28 pm] |
Camry needs too much work. transmission going out.
Got this other Blue Toyota from Mechanic, is in pretty good shape mechanically, but it ain't pretty. I found a torn axle, mechanic (Douglas, very nice man) said he would fix it no problem, no charge. He is trying to make me happy about the whole thing. He has never screwed me over.
I want a nicer car, but don't have the money yet. i wanted to take back the blue Toyota, cause I would be low on cash be keeping it for a while. I dont like being low on money. I dont wanna make this into a hassle. I like being able to cover my bills. I could give the blue Toyota to mom, and wait till I save up more to get myself a nicer car.
Im kinda pissed right now. I dont know what to do. I acted to quickly to get this vehicle. Douglass said he would give me my money back, but it would be an inconvenience, as he already mailed out the bill of sale. |

| It's been a long time |
[May. 21st, 2006|11:12 pm] |
Its been a real long time since I used this system.
I actually logged back in after a long absence mainly because My brother is on the system and I just found out his account name.
So those of you who read this and know me, quite a bit has changed since I last used this sytem.
Im doing far better than I was before.... and stuff. Anyway, apart from that I work a lot, and happy with my current job at Universal. I probably work too much now, but I don't care. There's quite a bit I get to accomplish there. I can say that I have accomplished quite a bit since my last use of Livejournal (that and my compulsive use of Myspace for the last year accounts for part of my absence).
Can't wait to see my brother soon. Im buying a newer (better) car soon and I need to do that right away. I can't drive the brown Toyota no more. I also got this big mural to do among everything else going on right now. Its for this Music Video and I hope i can get it done in time. its going to be 13' x 40' . Im not getting paid enough for this, but I cant be a chooser on this job. Their budget is too small and nobody else is getting paid, so I better not complain about the money. |

| More Fun with Iraqis |

| |  disappointed | ] |
Well, I appears that someone in the NAVY SEALS decided to post pictures of him and his SEALS friends playing with Iraqi POW's.
He posted them on a pic-sharing site online (that was really smart!) and his wife had a collection of them in one of her photo albums.

It seems to re-assert my belief that the military attracts men with 14-year old mentalities (he,he,he,he, SHUT UP BUTT-MUNCH!!) |

Here is the Map to the party:
ROGER'S SEMI-HALLOWEEN PARTY (yes, I wrote this HTML!)
The Apartment is #C, which is behind Helena street. Park in the Business Parking along Harbor BLVD. Note: Cypress Street is an annoying little street to turn onto from Harbor, its the last turn you take to get to my house, SO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR IT.

| Design as a Deliverable Methodology |
[Oct. 16th, 2004|11:35 pm] |
| [ | mood |
| |  thoughtful | ] |
Every problem has a solution
It is a verifiable and acknowledgable truth.
Unsolved/Untreated Problems generate further
problems, or gradually escalate into a larger
problems.
Every Problem
Has a Solution
Problems that require no effort to solve and
are solved in and of themselves via some cat-
alyst or method. Thus, they have a solution
I read the AIGA's column about design as
validifiable methodology for problem solving
in today's world.
It is certainly true that designers go unack-
nowledged in professional relationships as
"Stylists" (this pisses me off), silently
decorating the fluff or outside packaging
of an inner working model.
This is due in large to the nature of which
the world, mainly Western thinking perceives
Artists and Designers. Designers are also
part of the problem. We connect ourselves
to that model, living in a professional vacuum
which limits the results of human accomplishment
within the models of traditional practices=
Examples: Rational/Deductive thinking--------Science, Philosophy, Mathematics
Engineering, Medicine, Law,
Verbal Communication
This poor strategy fails to recognize an aspect
of human thought for the delivery of products,
resources, systems, solutions for the rest of
the world. |

| my first entry ever |
[Oct. 13th, 2004|01:23 am] |
| [ | mood |
| | contemplative | ] |
I guess this is the first time I have used an online journal, so here it goes.
Pretty cool day I guess. I got off work and hung out at CSULB and looked at different post-bachelorette programs.
later decided to go to the market, but they were all closed so I got bored and went to McClain's up Harbor. I never go there by myself.
ran across an interesting fellow. Korean guy just got out of UCSB in Psychology. He's pretty smart and a good conversationalist. anyway, I guess he seemed pretty out of place, so i gave him my email address in case we chose to bump paths again for another good discussion.
I guess I'm getting lonely again. I've felt pretty bad about my past relationships, but no more. I also have the bad habit of isolating myself from my peers (bad for finding some attractive dates).
It sucks being poor. I guess that's why I am looking at the programs in the Sciences. (sigh,....) Don't get me wrong, I really like science. I just feel inadequetely taught on math and science and should refresh and learn new skills. |
