I have been working so goddamn much it's driving me insane. Just worked my third straight 65 hour week. Sorry I haven't been around much. This is the last week of my old availability at Barnes and Noble. I'm giving it two weeks before I give notice because working there still is getting unbearable. I can make more money with the time I devote there with my own business which I've been neglecting.

Work at the record shop is going great though. So much stuff still left to do but it's really turning into something unique. I'll be around more often soon.

I know you said that there’s some really cool people at Barnes and Nobles and I believe that but still good for you getting that corporate *** stain the **** out of your life. It’s incredible that we’re rooting against brick and mortar but **** them. If their survival model is to operate in a manner that puts their staff on suicide watch they can pull a Blockbuster. Asswipes.

It isn't just that. They fired all their full time position lead employees. People that have been there 20 years gone to save a few million bucks. Now us lower pay slaves are stuck doing their work for less money. I was working just under 35 hrs a week there. You know what happens at 35 hrs a week? Benefits.

So, yeah. I changed my availability so about 18 hours because f*ck them. The company can suck a dick as far as I'm concerned. They had all the chances in the world to change to compete with Amazon and they just sat on their sh*tty hands.

I'm keeping it for at least two weeks to see if I can do all three things without dying. Record store, Barnes at night, my side record business squeezed in. After two weeks if it ain't working I'm done with it.

I read what those ********s did. Steal a bunch of **** and quit without notice. With your other job you don’t even need their reference. Man up kick those bitches back. Vandalize ****, steal ****, throw **** away, delete files, whatever.

BOOM. I am here:

- 2,502 feet above sea level
- sitting in my favorite spot has me facing 152 degrees south/southwest
- latitude 32.8 longitude 116.7
- 64 degrees and mostly sunny with an awesome breeze

You?

Moving into Manchester today. Flat will be about a 20 minute walk from my various venues. £450 a month is quite cheap but I’m basically just getting a big bedroom and some shared storage space in the kitchen. See how it goes.

Being closer means I will be able to work more and spend basically nothing on transport, which will probably pay for the flat itself.
