Normally I don’t make a post about working cause I don’t like to discuss what I do at work in depth to any degree. Especially I don’t like to talk about my boss or co-workers cause that can lead to trouble at one point or another cause I actually do love everybody I work with cause even though we make more work for each other we all work at the same job in the end. One of my personal rules is to make sure you get the job done and I have a huge amount of freedom at my job when I am done getting what I need to get done, done. Now the big question is what do I do with that extra time? While I have not been completely innocent with my free time at my job I certainly avoid getting into trouble, I stick to tiny mistakes due to the fact I am sleepy at work and I am not careful enough.
Now two of my co-workers which are a real lot of fun got into trouble big time, twice. Not sure what the second bit of trouble they got into but my boss figured it was time to let them go. As I told her, I am not management and I just work here, but I still feel the loss of two of the harder working employees here. I do not consider myself one of those hard working employees while my manual labor is up to par for the amount I am paid my extra care with numbers and intelligent tasks can lack here and there, mostly due to my sleepy nature. I find myself now boosted to and second most senior staff member here under my boss and as funny as it sounds I don’t like it. The thought that I will be training someone curdles my blood and not cause I cannot do it but cause I know how silly my job is. Silly as in the business and how it is run, we make money and we manage to do it fairly well as far as I understand but it is very relaxed and in that sense, silly.
Right now I dread the abuse of me, cause I work nights 12a-8a I live a hard schedule to interact with others and if I work any more strange hours it will break me. College is tough enough but to extend myself from night into afternoon hours is way too much without a nap or a big time break. I pray this doesn’t happen cause I kinda like it here, it has been a year and this is the longest time I’ve worked a job before.
Sorry for the sob story, I’ll try not to do this again.
Thought I would be silly and post a before and after shaving picture of myserlf. This is after I have not shaved for 5 days, and I took the pictures directly from the live stream. Sorry just being silly.
noticed I got a little shaving cream up my nose still in one of the pictures.
While my experience in Age of Conan is small so far and I’ve only covered a fraction of the plot and yet I am still under level 20. I have however enjoyed my game play so far a lot more than I have in many other MMOs. I used to play Asheron’s Call which in my opinion was out of control and fun. With no major company hanging over their shoulders the developers were able to create a game they wanted to play rather than what someone though we would like to play. This is the feeling I found Age of Conan had, blood, boobs, and raunchy humor. Also while others love the limited features of an MMO, I don’t, and getting yourself stuck and finding random bugs and wildly running around swinging your sword is some of my favorite things to do and AoC has them all. While the combat system is something you have to experience before you can truly understand and ever after that it will have to grow on you as it seems to be messy and wild at first glance. After a while you learn there is a pattern, skill, and strategy to it all even though you are a barbarian and you can just go at it while banging on the keyboard. Right now I am captured by the plot more than anything, while the graphics and music are awesome as well.
As for problems. I’ve had my complaints, the chat system seems messy to me or I haven’t figured it out enough yet but I’ve spent most of my time in the OOC (out of character) channel. Graphics are super over powered which makes me sad that most of my friends will NOT be able to play this game on their average computer systems and will have to upgrade. Other than that you cannot expect to play this game on anything besides broadband as this game’s patches are HUGE.
My main problem came when I put in the DVD to install, this is nothing but my own fault and I had a 32 gigabyte partition for Windows XP and the game needs 27 gigs to run, not to mention you should have a few extra gig for virtual memory and other programs. So I spent the first day of my purchase of AoC totally redoing my setup, something I’ve never done for a game before and people watching me working so hard for this game said to me openly “Is the game that good? Cause if it isn’t I would be pissed off if I were you.” and at that point I didn’t know but I knew I was at least enjoying the challenge.
After a productive day of drinking, sleeping, shopping, carrying air conditioners, haircut, dinner, and now drinking again I am making a post.
I am liking the ease of using Wordpress which I haven’t used in years and am learning all those cool little things they have added since.
I didn’t play anything today, I might later on. It is going to be Age of Conan no doubt, that game is very addicting though I don’t find myself needing to play it, just when I sit down to play something it comes to mind first. A descent plot and lots of gore does that to me
I have currently nuked my old everything that I had on foxspellcaster.com and moved over to foxpunk.com cause I was tired of putting out with my setup for so very long. I’ve slowly watched everyone move over to Wordress in the past 2 years when I have stuck with Drupal even though I am a nobody blogger in general. So this is my move to make everything easier to blog on myself even though Drupal is amazing.
