Sink or swim time.
Wish me luck.
Lights were off and I couldn't tell if it was done or not.
I should have known since my smoke detector hadn't went off.

Good afternoon everyone.
Hope all of you are doing well today.
I stayed up for 24 hours straight to try and shift my sleep schedule for my new job and wouldn't you know I wont up only a few hours later.
My first day of work starts here in a while and I am hoping to catch a nap before it does.
I only even bothered getting out of bed because my rent was sur and I had to walk it over before the office closed.
But I didn't stop there and I went out and bought some new masks and a carabiner so I could hook my water bottle to my pants if I wanted to.
And I stopped and got cigs for the next couple of days.
Would like to go back out and wash my car and maybe buy some new shirts for work but I guess that stuff can wait.
The only thing I really want to do still today is add some coolant to my car, check the tire pressures and do some laundry.
I need to take a nap but I am very hungry and can't decide on what to eat.
How are you?
American men cry all the time because the tv tells us it is okay to.
For starters, I haven't gone passed the bathroom to see what the place even looks like.
Not entirely sure just what Im going to be doing or how physically intensive it will be.
I am in probably the worst shape of my life and I just spent 10 days sitting perfectly still in front of my computer.
Hopefully no one there will have a beef with me.
Hopefully no one there will even know me other than my dude who got me the job.
I already know I am going to go in there looking stupid and that is because I do look kinda stupid, I just hope I can get everyone to laugh with me and not at me.
There is a lot I could worry about but for the most part it is out of my control.
I'm sure I could do the job but with all entry level shit like this it is more of can I get the hang of it before they give up on me.

Moulding plastic for a living
I only was molding plastic because that is where I had to start.
I knew what I wanted to do from day 1 and worked hard until I got to do it.
Im talking about changing molds and doing maintenance stuff.
The only thing was they really didn't need me doing any of that.
But I liked doing it and they let me.
Only thing is that I wasn't actually ever going to make the money the people who did that stuff full time made unless something happened to one of them and I got lucky enough to get to fill the open position.
My last job really wasn't that big of a place and it wasn't going to be worth my time to wait around.
Last January (2020) I told my boss I quit and I did until the next day when I still didn't have a new job.
Then covid didn't happen but everyone thought it did so I stayed there because
A - I didn't want to stop smoking pot to pass a drug test
B - I didn't want to have to get a covid test.
C - I also didn't have my license yet.
I switched to shipping to try and give myself something new to learn and stay busy doing but I couldn't escape the resentments I had from the factory side of things. Even though none of it really mattered at the end of the day, it still left a shitty taste in my mouth and just ruined my attituded. I still worked hard at my job but I also didn't hide the fact I wasn't having a good time.
I became a sarcastic jackass pretty much non stop.

Moulding plastic for a living
I don't know you guys.
Plastics sounded sweet to me because I felt like I had experience that would come in handy when I first took that job.
I have worked in plastics before and there is a good chance you have had plastic I made in your mouth.
If you ever drank out of a Pepsi bottle or Mountain Dew bottle around 2009-2010 there is a decent chance I maybe made it.
If you twist the cap off and then cut off the little plastic ring that stays with the bottle there is a number underneath that plastic ring which can be traced to a specific cavity on a specific mold making that specific type of bottle.
If you want to bash my plastics that is fine but stop putting it in your mouth.

How is it stupid?
Plastic pellets are 18 cents a pound and in 35 seconds you could turn 4 pounds of plastic into $60 worth of a different shape of plastic.
Look around your house at all the stupid plastic shit you own and ask yourself what you paid for all that plastic because I will tell you that plastic only cost 18 cents a pound until someone heated it up a bit and molded it into an XXL sized dildo for you to shove up your ass.
There is nothing wrong with molding plastic.
On ebay you can buy a plastic injection molding machine for $15k but you gotta go get a mold machined for it so you can make something.
And you have to know how to run the machine and ship the finished goods to the customer.
Really seems like a money factory just I never saw much money.
Now I got a new job and it is totally awesome (probably).
