August

I haven't posted on here in quite a while. Over the summer I worked at Fort Macon at Atlantic Beach NC. It's not really Atlantic Beach though because it is a park and owned by the state and not anything else. Everyone always gets that confused. I picked up trash and mowed grass and did maintenance stuff all summer. The job was great because I got to be outside all day every day. The people were... people. Damn yankees were always cutting the AC down to like nothing degrees and freezing me out. Two of the girls that lived in the barracks were just pretty damn psycho. I guess the reason would be that they are girls and to compound the problem, they were some of the yankees. Mark was the man. He had that attitude of "I don't give a FUCK" all the time and he always said "I don't give a fuck" when someone tried to talk down or tell him some "pressing" issue about lifeguard shit. He is a pretty funny guy (at least to me) on how he talks down to women, but I know he's kidding. The whole male cheauvanism thing is funny to me and I think that a lot of guys find great humor in that as long as it isn't hardcore malicious. Oh yes, little buddy a.k.a. Jeff Langley was a little 17 year old prick. That's all I will say on that subject though because I could go on for a good little bit about that brat. Tom and Larry, just as last year, didnt give a shit about work but they were cool-ass people. Tom always had a story of his travels and he told me the same stories over and over but I didn't care because they were always fun to listen to. Many wishes of good luck to Tom from me. He's in his mid 50's and not in the greatest health but he does a 40 hour week job doing hard work but to only get paid mere nickels for what he does. In the private sector he would't last too long, mainly because he's bullheaded, but he would be paid 30-40% more than what he makes working for the state. Ashley and Nathan were their own entity. I liked both of them very much because they were much like me. They were both sarcastic as hell and what struck me as refreshing about ashley is that she wasn't completely independent, but not a doormat for her boyfriend to walk all over like Zach did with Tiffany. Poor dumb Tiffany. One time she decided to assert herself but to everyone else other than Zach and said that she was tired of everyone pushing her around when no one ever really pushed her aroud other than Zach. I personally think she needs to split from him for her own good. Tiffany would do the stupidest shit and then Zach would talk to her to get her to quit whatever it was much like she was a dog and I think that she just go t so used to this that she couldn't decide what to fucking do on her own sometimes. They're both 21 or younger and they need to live a little. Fuck my ass, what else.... Oh yeah, Tiffany had this wierd phobia about her wrists. If you touched her wrists, it was like groping her boobs. She would flip out and inflict pain on the person who touched her. I never touched or know anyone who touched her chest but I think that touching her wrists is actually worse. Well thats all for now. I will be back later to write more stories and information on my summer.
