Conor - The Bright Side

Things I can do with my newly opened schedule, now that I've been fired -
   Play more Pokemon
   Always be ready to watch the Wire, should the mood ever strike my unreliable roommate, Caitlin
   Learn how to paint
   Devote more time to perfecting my beard
   I've never been terribly great at cartwheeling. Maybe I'll get better at cartwheeling.
   A shit ton of laundry.
   Look angrily at Pickleman's from a distance

Things that I don't need that hopefully having no income will finally inspire me to stop paying for
  Monster energy drinks
  Chocolate chip cookies
  Room, board
  Friends
  Food

Things one boss said
  Hey don't worry about getting your eight to twelve shift covered, you're right, we did give that to you at the last second after you very clearly asked what you needed to get covered for this weekend, so yeah, just cover your midnight to close shift and you'll be fine

Things the other boss said
  Where are you? What? You're fired.

How I feel about being fired
  Bitter
  Pretty Bitter

Things I'm determined not to do, despite being told explicitly to do
   Give them back their t-shirts

Fuck
  The Police

My next 4 weekends, in chronological order
  Ultimate Tournament
  The biggest party of the weekend
  Seeing Radiohead
  Spring Break

While all of this will be so cool and I'm super excited about the next month in my life
  I wish I still had a job

  5. I don't see how their romantic involvement should have any sway over the fact that one boss told you it was ok to leave.
