Going to Hell

[Two_Six]

So, I got this new job doing Siding/Framing at this construction site near my house. It pays alright, I'm supposed to start tomorrow, but its so cold outside and its snowing. I know I'll have to work outside and the thought of that is not fun.

I can't seem to be able to motivate myself to go tomorrow, but I know that if I don't I'll regret it and whine/complain about not having a job. I just wish it wasn't so damn cold outside. Like this would be a good summer job.

I hate making important decisions :p

wear some layers of clothes, so as you work, you get warmer, take off layer at a time.

I'm gonna give it a try, after all I did work at TLC (Trades Labour Corporation) last winter. The worst was working in the rain, but I still did it for the lousy $8/hr.

Hey question does anybody know what the % is that the gov'n. takes of your cheque if you make $2288/mo. or $1144/bi-weekly?

[MC Hammered]

Bring a mickey of whisky with you and it'll keep you warm.

Awesome thanks. Now I know I always assumed it was 20%, which I guess it is in a way.

[justa~gurl]

and you can always get those heating pad thingys to put in your boots!

and keep something warm around your neck, and wear gloves... as long as you got those 3 things covered.. you should be ok

Ya, I survived 2 days and going back for more. Planning to stick around for a while, its actually a really good company and the people that I work with are great. Its really easy too, I'm just having issues with heights, I guess I have a fear of heights, but I still forced myself to do it.

I wear alot of layers and after I start working for about a hour, I don't even need the jacket cause its too hot. I'm always moving around and climbing things, so I keep warm.

Its easier than I expected. Now I can't wait to get some money and spend it all on clubbing :P
