Due to my prior commitment to the Steampunk Film Festival, for which I've been volunteering, I most likely will not be at any part of this meeting. However, I would love to see any and all of you at the film fest afterwards, especially in your Steampunk finery!

That's not a bad idea. Unfortunately, I won't be getting paid until the following Tuesday. I might get my tax return just before it, though.

YAY! I GOT A GERMAN CHOCOLATE BUDDY NOW!!! If you want, you could bring special candles for it. (I don't know how old you'll be, so it's really up to you).

FateChooseMe · « **Reply #21 on:** February 07, 2011, 08:46:14 pm »

steelychan · « **Reply #22 on:** February 07, 2011, 09:37:00 pm »

FateChooseMe · « **Reply #23 on:** February 07, 2011, 10:48:08 pm »

XD That'll be that night.
Lulz.

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #24 on:** February 08, 2011, 08:48:40 am »

Don't worry too much. Keep the amount of consumption to a low, and if your plans will involve going out, make sure you go with people you could trust. (My current friends wouldn't have been good for me, but I didn't know them when I turned 21).

YAY CAKE!!! (Don't forget that I'll only be able to get it IF my return comes before the meeting, which it should).

FateChooseMe · « **Reply #25 on:** February 08, 2011, 11:05:59 am »

We'll I'll keep my hopes High, but not to high!
So, half and half. Lulz~

The people I'm going with I've known forever
So, it'll be okay. :3

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #26 on:** February 08, 2011, 11:27:38 am »

Good to hear! (I went with family, so I was quite conservative my first time around).

steelychan · « **Reply #27 on:** February 08, 2011, 08:45:27 pm »

im kinda terrified that one of my uncles will take it upon himself to seriously get me wasted. (i still have 3 more years)

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #28 on:** February 09, 2011, 11:52:50 am »

Well, that's another 3 years of convincing him not to, then.

steelychan · « **Reply #29 on:** February 09, 2011, 12:53:52 pm »

i plan on like avoiding him around my birthday.

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #30 on:** February 09, 2011, 01:22:50 pm »

Good call.

superjaz · « **Reply #31 on:** February 09, 2011, 03:50:10 pm »

Unless a miracle happens I can't make it, just got a new schedule that had the choice between losing hours or working a 14 hour sunday and I can't afford to lose hours. I am pissed and not happy. I will be looking for a new job as of today.

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #32 on:** February 09, 2011, 04:17:54 pm »

Sorry to hear that, Jaz. Good luck!

steelychan · « **Reply #33 on:** February 09, 2011, 06:12:09 pm »

i wish you luck in your job hunting!

superjaz · « **Reply #34 on:** February 09, 2011, 06:18:17 pm »

Thanks I am gonna need it I mean 38 hours in 3 days how crazy is that?!?

steelychan · « **Reply #35 on:** February 09, 2011, 06:22:17 pm »

thats insane! and i thought a 12 hour shift was a pain.

superjaz · « **Reply #36 on:** February 09, 2011, 06:35:52 pm »

Yeah its 9am to 11 pm sunday, then 2-11 monday and 7am to 10 pm tuesday

steelychan · « **Reply #37 on:** February 09, 2011, 07:15:14 pm »

egads! thats insane!

@random · « **Reply #38 on:** February 09, 2011, 07:34:11 pm »

14/9/15 is completely messed-up when it's against your will. The concept itself isn't too insane, several of my coworkers do three 13-hour shifts... but it's their choice. To order someone to work that as a schedule just isn't right.

_{(Historical note: Expectations have changed a lot in the past hundred years. Believe it or not, six such shifts was the norm for much of the working class before unions.)}

superjaz · « **Reply #39 on:** February 09, 2011, 07:41:34 pm »

it was my choice to an extent either that or 15-9-9 and lose 5 hours and I could not afford the Loss of money. On a plus side I am starting to collect references and job suggestions. fyi I am a certified support staff for adults with developmental disorders.

steelychan · « **Reply #40 on:** February 09, 2011, 08:33:29 pm »

i have to start looking for jobs soon. ill be moving to vancouver eventually and ill need to pay for my classes somehow.

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #41 on:** February 09, 2011, 10:42:16 pm »

I have no idea what jaz or pvg are saying...

@random · « **Reply #42 on:** February 10, 2011, 04:33:13 am »

Washougal - Discussing work shifts. For example, "three 13's" means three 13-hour shifts, and "15/9/9" means working a 15-hour shift, a 9-hour shift, and a 9-hour shift.

superjaz - I love it when managers give you the "choice" between a terrible option and one that's just really bad. I hope things get better for you guys.

steelychan · « **Reply #43 on:** February 10, 2011, 12:05:02 pm »

yep. or they dont inform you that you dont have a shift until you look at an updated schedule. they seriously irked me! but i got an even better shift when i bugged her about that.

Ah. I was thinking that is was referring to some Oregon work law thing.

I won't be able to provide candles, which is fine with me.
We don't need smoke in the library anyway. Lol.

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #48 on:** February 12, 2011, 05:30:59 pm »

Good point. I'll also bring plates & forks. Can you bring some sort of knife or something?

steelychan · « **Reply #49 on:** February 12, 2011, 10:35:46 pm »
