a sporadic self-chronicle since 2001

Began inventory at work today. They brought in a couple scales to help count stuff we’ve got lots of. Little parts, like screws and such. The other guys acted like they knew how to use it but couldn’t actually figure it out. It was frustrating as hell for me to know what to do with it and them to ignore me. After I had given up offering suggestions for them to ignore and they had spent a while failing, they finally asked for my help. I’ve gotta’ keep myself useful so they have a reason to not fire me.

I’m the “Master of the Mechanical Stuff”! And I have to help you! You, the master of the STUPID STUFF!

    For them not to lay you off, remember…. laid off, not fired. That’s what you keep telling me at least. I still think you’re going to get fired.
