Stuck on the Front Desk

lukeofyorkshire · Post by **lukeofyorkshire** » Sat Oct 18, 2008 5:13 am

Well my new job as a Security Officer means sitting on a reception desk controlling access to the building and dealing with enquiries.

It's ok when on a busy building but this one I'm in today is mostly quiet as The Legal Firm who have 2 floors are closed and the only people in are a group of Teachers who keep taking loads of kids upstairs to a firm that rents out rooms for use. Think they giving the kids private lessons in subjects, heard them talk about biology, god school on a Saturday poor kids! :-1

Well I stuck here for 5 more hours

Then off shopping as cooking Sunday Dinner for my brother and his mate who are up from Crawley and my folks who will be coming back from their caravan on the coast. What a exciting life I lead!

You could do my essay on 'Discuss Genesis as a foundation for English Literature, compare the text with a more current novel of your choice'

That'll keep you busy........... :wah:

oh welcome to FG by the way :-6

lukeofyorkshire · Post by **lukeofyorkshire** » Sat Oct 18, 2008 8:24 am

As I am all alone might just do some microwave food lol.

When cooking for others will go all out like I am tomorrow with the Sunday Lunch and homemade Apple Crumble with cinnammon and custard

I'll see what in the Supermarket might grab some veg and make some veggie chimmichangas yum yum.

Chezzie · Post by **Chezzie** » Sat Oct 18, 2008 8:32 am

ohhhhh I like Beef chimichangas:D

Are you a good cook then Luke?

lukeofyorkshire · Post by **lukeofyorkshire** » Sat Oct 18, 2008 8:41 am

I like to think I am a good cook lol. I love to lock myself in the kitchen away and cook for people.

I like to experiment and make up my own recipes as well.

I going for veggie option as cheaper lol cos if bought loads of beef would only go to waste. Do not want chicken cos having it tomorrow and can't have chicken 2 days in a row :wah:

I just wanna get home and have a soak in the bath, then put some tunes on and cook myself something really nice, have a bottle of wine maybe then off to bed early as now done 72 hours of work since Monday

Got Sunday off then back in Monday for 4 night shifts

Life is so good lol

Lol not religious but from your mouth to God's ears lol. I so needing the attention of a good woman, my wife was very negligent in providing any kind of physical or emotional support

Looking back was an idiot to marry her lol, but you live and learn!

Yeah I got it made ain't I. Thinking of asking for nights but we work at least 5 nights a week so would destroy my social life lol and if got a girlfriend and she worked days I would never see her lol.

I think I will stick with Days, love is more important than having it easy at work lol.

I'm all alone now the last person hs left the building.

Is there a job opening there? My daughter would love your job and that way she could do her homework, etc. and blog on the internet:wah: What's the pay dollar wise an hour?

lukeofyorkshire · Post by **lukeofyorkshire** » Thu Oct 23, 2008 11:46 am

Sadly no openings lol, I only here to be trained so can cover for the night guy when he off for 3 weeks next month :wah:

Pay is very poor, lowest I ever been paid since I was a teenager it converts to $10.92 per hour

I was on nights last night, managed to get 5 hours sleep, by time get to bed 2moro (I have the dentist, have to show my parents house to potential buyers then I have an appointment at the building society in the afternoon) I will have been up for 30 hours

So reckon I not be going out partying 2moro night like my mates want me to lol.

If you were in the US, $10 would be grand as long as it's under the table. Meaning no taxes, straight cash. Up for 30 hrs? Jeez, I'd be dead.:p

Well plenty of stuff happening at the moment still some staff in the building at 20.09 fools lol and cleaners as well. I brought my laptop to watch some DVD's got 'Bobby' about Bobby Kennedy and Season 1 of Scrubs. We patrol for 30 mins every 2 hours or so.

Got a nice curry to do in the microwave and a few cans of juice/soda and of course bit of FG
