Vacation days

Well this past weekend I snuck off and took what would be considered vacation days. I don't really know if I deserve vacation time though. I have not been actively working and spend a fair amount of time on the couch, doing very little of anything. At any rate I took off and went down to Shawnee State for a 3 day 2 night lay around. All I managed to accomplish was eat breakfast with the vet assistant and watch season 1 of dexter in its entirety. While I did enjoy this, I could have done this at home. I will have to choose a more active location next time with better weather. The weather was at least heavy hooded sweatshirt weather all weekend.

I have lately been crunching numbers for our tobacco crop this past year. Knowing and determining how much was paid out is not the problem. The issue I and by default my bosses are having is who paid what and when. I kept good records of my harvest back in late august and have all I need to know. The stripping is fine up until we started stripping my dads pounds. The general rule of thumb is that we pay for all of our labor out of the greenhouse account, then write a check back when all is said and done. I know grandpa took out 5 grand before him and grandma left for florida, and then dad used up all the remaining cash and started using from his own account. So in effect, I now have to calculate how much is owed and spent where. This wouldn't be so bad but the bosses are just going to make me do it all over again and then not read any single thing I have prepared for them.

I am also starting a job with the post office soon. I applied and passed a driving test, so I am in for as long as I want. I am not sure how this will interfere with my attempts at being a substitute teacher. The postmaster I interviewed with acted as if I should keep my day free until after 8:30 am. I am usually subbing at school by that time. If I try and do both, eventually someone's proverbial toe is going to be stepped on. I am still going to attempt to look for full time work, really in either job oppurtunity. I am going to go ahead and get a car that I can drive on a mail route. On craigslist I can get a car with high miles on the engine for under two grand, so it won't be that much of a hit on my money account.
