something in me was telling me not to. i thank that voice for telling
me not to.
Going to miss you all. as i leave, my heart is heavy...
Missing you already,

| - Half life Sheri
What can i say about her. Sheri makes my heart skip a beat. she makes
me tired cos she's always running around in my mind...i know that that
sounds really cheesy..but its the truth. I have known her for a very
long time. we were classmates in the 5th grade and still are very fond
of each other.
Today, we watched a movie..the Village. it wasnt all that I thought
that it was. Sheri seemed to like it although i wanted her to get
scared just cause! hehe. but darn it didnt work...next time probably
with the exorcist! LOL. just messing around.
After the movie. we went to the beach and was just walking on the sand
and talking about stuff. it was nice but it was too hot. hehe.
We had lunch and then i dropped her off to UOG.. and then that was it.
Later, we chat and god it was good. lol. i mean, we really have a thing for each other.
Idk, but she seems like a keeper for me. I am happy with her and she is happy with me. the feeling is indescribable!
thats all for now. im gonna call her and hear her voice cos i miss her already!

| Sunday...
The Meaning of Difficult Person and the start of my dramatic moments!
God! I know that this is a day late..well not really a day late, but
last night was like dramatic for me. First of all, I had an issue with
an employee who refused to listen to me regardless of how much I had
asked before he began his attitude towards me. Some may say that I am a
difficult person to work with. a difficult person to fanthom. just
difficult. My respose to those who do say that I am in fact difficult
is: Do you see me doing the same thing to ______? Do you see me
get along with Him or Her? If so, that means I am difficult. But since
you do not, you can you justify your comment about me? How can you say
that I am a difficult person to deal with?
I understand that I CAN be such a difficult person to be with
especially when it comes to working. When I ask, I ask. you dont
listen, I delegate. you dont like, you deal with me and the way I deal
with you. you dont like me to be a difficult person, do the same .
I dont want to seem like I am getting ahead of myself because I was
given the STE (senior theatre employee) title and then upped to
Assistant Manager. the fact is that I am still the same guy who was
before hand STE. Now it seems that with the AM title, certain people
give me a hard time and that makes me extremely mad. Mad at the fact
that they cannot listen to a word that I am saying concerning work.
So anyway, this past sunday was just ****for me dealing with this
person and the way he refuses to listen. he finds ways to avoid me. he
doesnt want to help me clean. he 's weak. I mean, I tell him to do
this, he refuses. then he gets irked at me for being such an Ass. I
dont mean to be an ass...just dont be one with me. you hear? its a two
way street. you treat me like crap, im going to treat you like crap.
you may think I have favorites...you right! and you arent one of them
because you made it that way .
dealing with this person and his refusal has been ongoing. so much so
that I refuse to even acknowledge him as a friend. the thing about it
is that we used to be close. then we fell back. he started doing his
own thing. I started doing mine. there were times when I would drop
what I was doing just to hang out and relate to him. I'd go out of my
way to drop him home even tho my place was just a few minutes away from
work and his was at the other end of the road. Now tell me: Am i really
all that difficult? a difficult person would not go out of his
way to pick up, drop off, hang out and work with a person. a difficult
person only sees what is in it for himself, I don't. I dont ask for
much...well...sometimes I do...but if anything, I ask for that person
to do his job and listen to authority. Its not like I placed myself
above the rest. I work hard, I stress out. I deal with all sorts of
complications. this person doesn't. he throws himself to the thing. I
wait for it to come to me.
Work :
Regardless of working with that person last night. he was
definately not the icing on the cake of difficulty. I had an issue with
the janitorial manager last night. ok the thing is this: I have been
doing Sunday night shifts for the longest time and I have noticed that
his employees, mostly kids ( ages 10 - 15) will come in early to "work"
the Manager isnt even in the area to supervise the kids. since there
are movies playing and kids running amok, they think that they can go
in an watch a free movie while waiting for their manager to come to
work with them. I have been warning them that they should and are
supposed to wait in their respective places before work and they arent
allowed to watch a movie unless they payed for it.
Last night was the last straw. I had allowed 5 people who worked for
the janitorial cleaners we employed to clean the theatres.At first i
was sort of wary that they would probably pull a winona at the theatre.
Hehe. yeah so anyway, I let them in and i dont see them for the longest
time. I go to check if they are in the janitorial room where they
should be. they aren't. I go to the manager and tell her that I let
people in under the janitorial cleaners and she askes where are they. I
told them that I think that they are in the theatres watching a movie.
I go into the theatres and find that they arent there. where can they
be? I dont know, but i know for a fact that they arent in the bathroom
or at the exit doors. nor did they leave cos I would have noticed since
i was up front. Well...they obviously were in the theatres. I was
mad. I was mad at the fact that I let them in under the impression that
they would at least respect that I was allowing them in and they should
have known to stay in the room where they are supposed to. wrong. I
tell the manager that we need to tell them that they are going to have
to listen or deal with us. she tells me to do what I need to do.
i wrote a letter. I wrote a letter to tell them to please stop watching
the movie while waiting for it to be over so that they can clean. i
left the note in the room, taped to the metal chair. later, the more of
the cleaners come and the first thing they want to do is watch the
moovie that probably just started. My friend Nadine saw them doing that
and warned them that I was up to their scheme and that they stop and
read that memo that I left for them to read and understand completely
since i guess speaking to them didnt work.
I carry on with my job and later, my manager calls me into the
manager's office and guess who is there? No one else but Boss
Janitor! Boss Janitor questions me why i did that letter and I
tell him all my reasons. I told him that this has been a recurring
problem with his staff and with me. I told him that they may get away
with others on their shift, NOT ON MINE ! I
meant it and im am really sorry that he felt insulted that I did that.
ITS NOT MY PROBLEM! YOU DEAL WITH YOUR EMPLOYEES, I DEAL WITH MY DUTIES .
Boss janitor has the nerve to cuss at me in front of my manager and tells me that we do the same thing to his area .
whatever! hello dumb*$$! we have to go in there since all the chemicals
are there! he then finishes it all of by pushing me against the door
with the letter shoved in my chest .
He later comes back in while I am counting out my co worker and tells
my manager that he paid for 6 children and 4 general admissons. hehe.
guess i got my point across! He was pissed, but at least I milked
his wallet for whatever they watched. He wants to speak to my GM about
me. he's probably going to bash me and the way he felt because of my
letter. Give me a break. the whole world isnt going to end because
David wrote a mean letter to your Janitorial Staff. after all...we are
paying you to clean. not watch a movie.
So what? tell me. am i really all that difficult? Hehe. that's
all for now. hehe. Sundays are officially my dramatic days...

| The week:
Oh My Goodness...those are the words that can describe this entire
weekend and the days that progressed to it. I mean, It was really a
great time for me. I have someone that makes my heart skip a bear.
She's a really thoughtful person. I really like her alot and she knows
it. We watched the notebook together and it was just amazing. the movie
itself made us think about how we would be in the years to come and
from my view...its somthing that I would love to look foward to.
The Person who makes my heart skip a beat is really special. SHe makes
me want to love. SHe makes me feel Loved. She's just someone that I
would love to be with. I know that she really is special because she
just makes my world go round. She's creative. She's Nice. She's Sweet.
SHe's Romantic. She's always in my thoughts and in my heart. She's a
friend...but more importantly, she's the person that has always been
racing my mind...i know that she will be a great partner because she is
the girl that I have known to love and to accept and am willing to
change for.
Best Friend: Nicole. God I am so gonna miss her alot when I leave. She
has been nothing more than sweet and caring and it makes me wonder that
we aren't related..but you never know...we might be related.
Tonight...we had such a great time. We went to Cappriciosa and
Kings...yah..we were hungry. LOL. it was awesome. The food was great.
the experience was better. Recieved a text during dinner from my
special girl.
Work: Work has been upbeat for me now cos I have the special person I
think about each day. Yesterday, She came by to watch a movie and then
she called me out to talk and hugged and it was nice. she didnt leave
for a while and it was funny cos i would catch her looking at me
working while she supposedly waited for her cousin...LOL. How
sweet...made me happy all night long. you see it doesnt take much to
please me... LOL.
Life: Man! Now that I have something to look foward to, Im leaving. you
know what?? Its ok. cos i know that i will always have the support and
love from my family and friends and they will help me cope with
whatever im going through..right?! hahah...Gonna miss you all and all
the crap you gave me while i was here! take care and Peace. missing you
all already!
I guess this is it for now. Missing you all and hope to see you all at
work. at the club. and the movies and wherever i see you. Take care and
Be good.
Special Shout out to Sheri..yeah that's her name...I really really like
you alot and just want to let them all know that. Missing you and
thinking about you all the time!
