I started working at a warehouse today, the work's not thrilling but it pays the bills, as they say. The people aren't bad either, there's a couple of disagreeable people but everyone seems more than happy to be cool, and most importantly the management is an especially friendly bunch. The group of what looked like typical British lads working on packing even turned out to be WoW addicts (because no one plays WoW casually), unfortunately they're Horde scum so I had nothing to say to them. One of the other pickers looks exactly like Tom Sizemore, another like Olivia Colman, and another is a rather attractive Eastern European female type. Among other workplace stereotypes I think they're all quite a merry bunch that should provide some entertainment during my employment.
As mundane as the work is I can't complain, a warehouse position is what I've been looking for, and being left to get on with my job all day with no one on my case asking me if we've got any fething Wiis in stock was a rather nice experience. We're also allowed to wear whatever we want, the radio's on in the warehouse all day or we can listen to MP3 players, it's a very relaxed environment.
At one point I was slowly walking along through the rows of boxes, hunched over my trolley, it made me feel like that dude in the government warehouse at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark, which is awesome. Later when listening to my iPod Sweetness by Jimmy Eat World started playing, and it quickly reminded me of what I'm working for.
Paul also passed his driving test today, with only four minors.
Now only clutch and accommodation problems hinder our attendance of the epic event that will be Wales Rally 2007.
