Caffiene Addiction
Jul. 23rd, 2003 01:45 pm Spent two and a half hours in "Bazooka Bowls" (AKA "hell"). This frigid ride caused I noticeable increase in lifeguards getting sick when it was made operational last year.. and brought back my cough which proceeded to last for the next three months. So I was there from 17:30 to 20:00, the coldest hours the park is open. Walking back ranking supervisor Matt Kyle expressed his sincere gratitude and condolences for my suffering, and then as I passed the wavepool all the deep guards cheered for me. hehe. Except Michael (a female), who was like "its not THAT cold in there" yea fuck you too, I didn't ASK for anyone's sympathy.
There's a walkie-talkie at the bowls position because while you're there there is no one that can hear you scream... so I was listening to the radio chatter and realized that with the exception of Matt Kyle all the supervisors were people who'd been deep guards at the end of last year.. made me kinda depressed again.
Then I came home and passed out from lack of caffiene.. Diedrichs was closed by the time I was ready to head out.
Today (Wednesday) I'm working at the Orange County Faire... manning a booth for the OC Beekeepers Association.. because I am totally xhoneybeexcorex. So euh.. everyone should stop by. Yea even you nor cal kids. Anyway I'll be there from 16:15 to 20:00 or so.
Hmm I think thats everything... I feel obligated to make my entry inordinately long though.. oh well.
Well did I mention that I am now a full deepguard at work, hence my working almost every day, but not on the schedule, meaning I work whenever I want to. Its great... I love the freedom. I am the only one with this priviledge, because I am elite. (=
