I freaking hate working on windows 8. It's such a horrible OS. Keep hitting the start menu by habit and it basically tells me "fuck you". Have to open recycle bin just so I can then browse to C drive because there's no "my computer". There's no "run" either because that would normally be in the start menu, so have to browse the C drive for programs I want to run. Everything takes many more steps to get to and it's overall flaky and annoying to use. Like I was in the file system and randomly the icons got all bigger, wtf? It just goes and does stuff without you telling it to. That whole OS is a huge disaster.
welcome to a long time ago

A storm is loosed upon the sea
Whose eye is stained with tears.
A wretch Hell-bound and bent on blood,
the makings of the fearful's fears.


The tide it stole away her grace,
the depths, they wouldn't claim her.
A toil begat by father's blood
This path was laid before her.


Redemption borne by brigand’s blood
A blight upon the darkness.
The pact embraced, a road unsought
The Maiden of Death won't be unwrought.


Her wrath is known throughout the black,
the gardens of death she is tending
Vengeance is her only ward
Beware the blood red rose's thorn.

LAID OFF.

The weekend must have been a pre cursor to the week.

Not sure now many were at least three, I left before maybe they were done.

NEF.

Have a few people I need to call up, but just not in the mood atm.

It has been slow there awhile now, but didn't expect that one.

They listed it as a limited layoff, but, yeah, right.

Ouch! That sucks.

That's my worse fear, I really don't know what I'd do. There is not any other job in my field here that pays as good as what I do, and with cost of living constantly going up I would not be able to settle for minimum wage, which is about the only jobs that come up every now and then.

To be honest, that whole company might go down the tubes soon though.

Probably should have been looking before now.
