Should I have gone to work today?

So I decided not to go in. I have 3 days left after today before my job ends for the school year anyways, and I really don't feel like spending 8 hours activating fucking iPhones today. My only concern is the money, I have about $400, plus about $500 coming on the next paycheck to last me until I either get a part time job, or xmas time when and if I get a full time job again for a while. I dont have to worry about rent or food because I live with my parents still.

So instead of working today, I'm planning on spending all day around the house, listening to music, making some music, playing some GTA4 and watching the wire. Would you all say that I made a good or a bad decision today?

Also I have to bike to work and I pulled just about every muscle from my pecs up from climbing on a playstructure the other day. Before you all ask I'm 20, not 13 lol.

i bummed off work today and i'll probably do it again tomorrow.

this will be tomorrow for me.

fuck i can't wait til tomorrow. cept i don't have a copy of gta4 anymore :(

you should do something more worth while than bumming around the house! something that in about 5 years time you'll look back and feel good about yourself and say "yeah... i did that!"

I picked it up again recently after a long sit on my shelf, and I've really taken to murderous rampages through hospitals again.

Yeah, I'm thinking of making a bunch of music today so I don't feel like I had a 100% unproductive day.

fuck it stay home.

If you get paid hourly, you should have went to work.

I do, I lost $80 by not going but I figure money isn't everything and I'd rather have a nice leisurely day before I go back to uni next week and fucking CRUNCH down.

I have a few days off work as holidays. It's given me time to get mixing my music. The days are going FAR too fast though, and I kinda want to leave the house and do something but its pissing it down outside. arse.

i pulled a sickie last thursday. it was awesome. one huge wankathon.

It's a bad decision, it's not your employer's fault you chose to get a shitty job you don't like.

You're not just fucking over yourself and your employer but also your colleagues.

People with bad work ethics are people.

Whatever.

ive been 'ill' allweek and i said i might go back in thursday. i made a ep, watched district 9, post some parcels, read the paper today so not alls lost gonna play some xbox later on tonight, i have tomorrow off as well, which will be me cleaning up the house because my folks are coming back from holiday and i made a mess (ish).

where you work chris? thought you was a full time acid monster.

Oh man, not going to work is like the best drug ever. I ended up doing it quite a lot at my old job and then I went to the movies or went on a gaming shopping spree, and I abso-fucking-lutely LOVED it.

im a milkman

Yeah, and after taxes, that's more like 40$ anyway - just don't eat for three days and you can call it even.

i should not have gone to work today. i could have been more productive at home instead of being here, fucking shit up and being totally incompetent.

i never understood why so many people are so fat. it's cheaper to be skinny.

lol i do that alot lately.

yesterday and today i came to my work 4 hours late. last week i've been missing for two days in a row. i came up with a lame excuse of stomach ache. but later i told the boss that i went to the mountains with my girl. he didn't mind....that much.

i have this constant feeling of pushing the limit too far....and i like it :P

today is "tomorrow" and i did/have.

Not quite. The cheap food to eat...I'm talking the Kool-Aid, hot dogs, twinkies, frozen pizzas, crisps/chips, McDonald's, etc. are the foods that have the highest added animal fats, the most corn sugars, and the least healthy food bits due to extreme processing in order to boost shelf life.

It costs more to buy whole grain products, fresh meat cuts, fresh produce, and other shit you should be eating because they have poor shelf lives and require high maintenance. The producers of these products are also not receiving shit hot subsidies like the processing side of things so it gets passed on.

tl;dr verion: read any book by Michael Pollan

i've read the botany of desire, but until i graduate college (woot december) and get a real job i probably won't really eat that great. i eat fast food ~3-4 times a week, and i'd wager i'm about the skinniest guy on these here boards (6'2 150lbs). i just don't get people who are fat eating that shit all the time. like, if you're getting fat why not get small fries instead of supersize? one of the many things that makes me lol america

edit - also, i took off work today! hooray!

last week i almost fainted at work. my boss told me to go home and see a doctor. so i went to the doctor who didn't even bother to examine me properly. he just told me that i had the flu and that i should stay at home for three days. he wrote me a note for work and off i went. sweet fuckin' a. went to the beach with my gf the rest of the week.
