fly me to the moon, and let me play among the stars

i watched the opening for the olympics on friday evening. i would personally like to thank china for trying to induce a mass coma to viewers around the world. i am guessing that was their goal. even when there were shots of the audience that were in the birds nest, those people appeared to be bored and disinterested. i was a little relieved to g.w. impatiently looking at his watch from the stands. i can honestly say that i was bore to tears, and had to fight off sleep to even finish. i do not think that i have ever seen the opening ceremonies of any olympic games, and the commentators claimed this was one of the better ones. if that is the case, i will not being watching them in the future.

ok so the bus broke down again this morning, so i had to grab the second bus out. at some point i would imagine they should start question the people who are inspecting these busses. luckily, for me at least, it was the second bus. so i should still arrive to work on time because an additional bus arrived shortly thereafter. the bad thing is, even though the bus routes have the same starting and stopping points, they do not neccessarily travel the same path to get between them. so i imagine that there are several people who will not get picked up at all until the next bus comes around. plus, the busses keep breaking down for the same bus driver. i kind of feel bad for her because she is the reguklar driver, and is fairly nice to everyone. now if that other lady was in a bus that broke down, i would probably laugh and spit in her face, in no particular order.

today begins the coutdown to the inspection for the store's inventory. i have also recently discovered that i am not responsible for it in any what-so-ever. this puzzles me, seeing as the only reason they are allowed to keep me in the store was for that exact purpose. i find it strange that someone else will be given the responsibility of the task (someone that the store has dubbed as quite the idiot i might add), and then i still have to stay here. i am not sure i can understand it. at any rate, it is one less thing i have to spend my time on. plus, it now is ammunition for me not to help with any exhaustive tasks that are not specifically related to my job. tasks like providing insight on how to set things up for said inspection.
