RAAAAAISE!!!…the iPod

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006

Well, I just my one year review at Target and I did too damn good cuz I got a $0.93 raise!  Now I’m getting paid almost $9 an hour!  Too sweet of a pay for a job outside of SF!  I prolly would’ve gotten more if I didn’t call off several times and took the side promotion that was offered when my 90 day probation period was off.  What I meant by side promotion is it’s another position but same pay.  However, I gain more development skills in understanding how the store works.  I didn’t take it cuz it I would work almost 7-8 hours on Saturdays….every Saturday!  I’m can hardly handle close to 25 hours a week, why make it close to 30?!  Although the sweet part is I don’t have to deal with organizing the shelves…I just gotta put ad signs up and pull the old ones off!  But do I really want to spend late nights at work…………………………….?

This weekend my Juli got me a video iPod!  Yea, I just became an iPod head.  Got me a hard-clear case case and an AV connection kit.  Total about $126.  Now I can watch videos on TV from my iPod.  It even comes with a remote control!

J-Town FOREVER!

5 more days till my year at Target………..

On other news………..

If anyone didn’t hear, Japan Town is up for sale.  Most of you must be thinking, "don’t you mean some property of Japan Town?"  Nope, I mean practically almost ALL of J-Town.  Turns out a corporation owns about 3/4 of J-Town and selling it up for grabs and it could be sold to ANYONE or ANY other CORPORATION.  If this keeps up, J-Town will be like Manila Town: GONE.  If you never heard of Manila Town in SF, yeah, that’s how bad J-Town is gonna be in the future.
