Well, Tuesday... Got a call from the main office, they wanted me to go take my physical & drug test today... So, I drank half a gallon of water before I went, in the odd event that something were to magically show up in my piss... They didn't tell me I'd have to wait a whole fucking hour and a half before that point! There I am, sitting in the waiting room, watching a TV show that has people splashing around in a pool, wishing I had a tourniquet or something in case I lose control... They finally call me in (after teasing me by calling my name several times, only to present me with another form to fill out each time). I'm hoping we get this piss test outta the way first, but noooo... They do the first half of the physical, which consists of the vitals, vision test, hearing test (which is quite funny, really - she had me stand about 3 feet away from her while she whispered something and asked me to repeat it. Bet that test alone costs $50)... Then she wants me to bend down and touch my goddamn toes with my full bladder! Next stop, PISS TEST! FINALLLLLY! She leads me into the room with a toilet room in it, and I'm about ready to burst. Then she tells me to wait there while she goes to get something. - 5 minutes later - she comes back with the cup. So, I go in there, piss straight into the bowl for about 20 seconds, then pinch it off and fill the cup halfway, then let go back to the bowl for what must've been another minute or so... I remember thinking to myself, "shit, this has to look bad, me spending so much time in here" - the whole time trying to piss on the porcelin above the water so I wouldn't make too much noise, which didn't work because there was quite a bit of pressure behind my stream... Finally came out of there with a warm cup o' piss for the nice lady, whom poured it into two shotglass-sized vials and sealed them, asking me to initial each one. Then she introduced me to a rather cute young lady whom would be walking me through the next part of the physical... She did all the normal stuff; blood pressure, temperature, pulse, Q & A, then gave me a pair of throwaway shorts (They must've been size 50, but with elastic from a size 35) and asked me to strip to my underwear and put these on for the rest of my examination... So, she leaves, and I do as she asks, then as soon as I finish, the door swings open again, and instead of the cute young lady - some dude walks in. The rest of the exam was, unorthodox to say the least, but at least I won't be constipated for a while! (In all seriousness, some of it was kinda strange... After the standard knee-jerk reflex, lung test, and ear exam, he had me stand up, put my arms straight ahead, close my eyes, and lift my arms, then spread my fingers. Whatever this accomplished is beyond me, but apparently I passed. Oh, and of course, there's the obligatory turn your head and cough bit, which I had hoped the cute chick would've performed (I know I would've sprung a bone if she had). So, kids... Looks like Lomo's gonna be working soon. I doubt the place would've sprung the cash for a physical if I hadn't passed the background check, so I should be in like flint. Soon as I know for *sure*, I'm running out and getting me a goddamn PS2. I've been without GTA3 for too long, and I'm going to need it after a long, hard day of dealing with the public.

Update: Today, as some of you already know, I had my final, which started at 7.30 AM. Yes, in the FUCKING morning. It sucked. Aside from that, I was cool - seeing as how I munched a vivarin, four sudafeds, and two semi-legal "ephidrine" pills.... Basically, I took the test, the drugs helped me stay awake and cognant, and I think I did decent on them. I get home, however, and see that I got a call from the main office. I call them back (oddly enough, after buying my fuckin' PS2), and it turns out they need me to go in for another fuckin' drug test. This is all fine and dandy, however I'm not quite certain as to the classification of 'gas-station' drugs (in this case, the bronchiodialator, Ephidrine HCl.) ... Long story made short, don't know if/when I'm going to start work. :-\ P.S. - Getting drunk to celebrate.

Do you have time to go to the herbalist or flush yourself out with vinegar? Good luck, Man, that sucks.
Already took it again yesterday... Oh, and I stocked up on a few (5) PS2 games long before I got the system, and Frequency was one of 'em...
Can I suggest "Blood Omen 2"? It starts a little slow but becomes one of the freshest games in history as it goes on. In addition, the "Baulder's Gate" game for PS2 is very fresh and is 2 player so bring a friend.

I doubt I'll be getting any new games anytime soon, I'll be playing these five (GTA3, MGS2, Maximo, Gradius 3&4, & Frequency) for a while, and my next purchase will probably be a Gameboy Advance - I've got 5 games for that, too... I'll definitely check Blood Omen II out, I've got the original "Legacy of Kain" PSX game, and the semi-sequel, 'Soul Reaver' on Dreamcast... I'll probably round out the trilogy sometime in the near future...

Soul Reaver 2 = Not that much fun The plot is intense and the graphics are good but the gameplay is sub-standard and there is not all that much to do (you run from the castle to the village and back again three times, fighting stuff). Combat is annoyingly difficult, not "challenging", mind you, but annoyingly difficult. You find yourself wondering, "If I'm some kind of super-creature created by a dark god to be his avenger, why is this guy with a stick beating my ass all over the canyon?" My suggestion on this one; Wait until it drops to about $20 or less and get it for the plot. If you beat Soul Reaver 2, it opens up some features, including voice recording out-takes. It's kind of disturbing because the guy who does "Soul Reaver's" voice is so amazingly gay. He's like, Oscar Wilde / Liberace / Richard Simmons gay and does not fit the character at all.
How fitting that the "work" thread turned into another "game" thread. Guess where I get to go in a few hours? Nothing like sitting in front of a computer screen with a headset (that sends low voltage shocks to my brain) on taking call after call from people who are either too stupid to use a computer/internet or from people who are pissed off as fuck because of the 150+ dollars in penalty fees they will have to pay due to their "user error" on my "piece of shit worthless site". If I owned it, I'd fucking sell it. Everyday I go in there, I hope that I fuck something up and they send me home unpaid for two days... then I'd only have to make one more mistake before they fired me and I could collect unemployment. Well, enough of my rant... How do you steal cable? I haven't had it for 5 months and I'm really starting to miss it.
