A typical day in the life of working Jacob

• Wake up excessively early (6am), moaning and tossing in warm bed, and regretting staying up late the previous night
• Get up 6.20, dazed and confused
• Have breakfast, dress etc
• Try to get out of the house at 7.10
• Drive (still dazed and confused) to work
• Arrive, feel bad for being 5 mins late
• Do stuff* (*stuff includes - feeding rubber onto aluminium bars, load truck, lift crates(100kg), sweep up, try to understand co-workers speaking in Samoan, drilling, using this really cool hole punching machine, shooting people with an air gun etc - lots of fun spread around)
• Morning tea break where I sit and read the herald, or a book, or talk to people
• Stuff
• Stuff is followed by lunch break (same as morning tea break)
• Continue to work, dazed and confused
• Afternoon break (same as lunch, except with tired feet up)
• Stuff
• Drive home (D&C)
• After work stuff
• Stay up late for no particular reason

And thats my day. I don't know what keeps me motivated, I guess I do kinda enjoy it. The people I work with are quite cool. The day's program totally changes when I'm out doing deliveries with another dude, I get my lunch break when I get back, and spend most of the delivery sitting in traffic.

However, I do have to listen to rap in the truck on deliveries, and 'easy listening i' in the factory which is fairly (insert PC word here to avoid offending)

I just wanna save up my $4000 and go overseas.

Somebody save me.

In saying all this, I still don't regret not going to uni, because I have no debt, and I still don't know what to do there.

I'm tired - the past two weekends I've been out camping, doing water activities. I got hardly any sleep on both occasions, and combined with my bad sleeping habits during the week, I now am one tired (& kinda sick) monkey.

Do I have anything else to say....

Questions, anyone?
