Things are looking up

June 2nd, 2007

Business has been excruciatingly slow at work for the past few weeks. So much so, that I’ve been being let off a few hours early some days because there’s nothing for me to do. I don’t have the kind of job where I can surf the internet when there’s nothing to do, so that compounded my boredom and frustration.

However, a small glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel appeared today, when Glenn loomed over me announced that today of all days I would finally be learning about the 4-color process. He ended up giving me an overview of processing and cutting the CMYK plates to give to the pressman, but it wasn’t exactly simple.

Should I feel bad that all I think of my job is that it’s a steady pay check? Didn’t think so.

Well, I have something to look forward to. I’ll be getting a Canon PowerShot SD 1000 in few weeks. I’m in need of a new point-and-shoot, and this seems to suit me fine. Digital camera’s are becoming more affordable. When I bought my SD 400 (about a year and a half ago), it was about $100 more than this latest model of the PowerShot. Yeah, this is why I’m always broke.

Finally, here’s the sketch I did on vacation. I drew it in the TV room of the lobby.

Good night, kids.
