Monday - evening

Toast.  4 hours waiting at the plant, just wears me out.  I know it's just sitting but I just don't like sitting around doing nothing. I did have my Switch with me and played a few games, but I can only play so much of that game before I have to put the thing down and do something else.  

I had been sitting there for and hour and a half before I went and politely asked the loader when he thought he would get to me.  He got testy and showed me all the trucks he has to do. Ok, I get that you're loaded up, do you have an estimate? 2 hours.  2 HOURS? Dang!  He didn't like that reply and I just thanked him and left.  It's not his fault the plant doesn't have enough loaders tho there are 3 of them being trained, it takes months before they can let them go on their own.  

Anyway, the dude has a temper, not that I'm particularly afraid of him, I've seen him throwing papers, his hard hat, etc all over the place, come storming in saying "I'm just one person". Yes, life is rough and then it got hard.  I dunno what to tell you, deal with it. 

I was supposed to go get the trailer wheel hub replaced, but it was way too late, no way I was doing that today. I had the wheel cleaned at the washout so it doesn't look like a cop--magnet to get pulled over and get written up for a leaking seal. They'll write you up for any and everything.

The IRS sent me a  large envelope today.  I opened it up with no emotion whatsoever.  It is what it is, I thought, if they are going to audit me, I'll do my best to pass muster.  It was, however, my tax return, saying I failed to sign it. Oh.  Guess I forgot.  It also asks to list where I got 5 plus k from that I listed as income.  Yup, that would be Cashapp, I think. I'll have to go through all of that again, tally it up and make sure that's where it actually came from.  They didn't ask for anything else, I'm wondering if that's a good sign? 

Oh and some form I didn't bother to look at, I'm tired and I don't want to deal with that today. I have Wednesday off, I'll mess with it then.  Why do I have Wednesday off? I have no clue unless they are going to try to dump me working an entire weekend.  They tend to make you pay for having weekends off, like I had last weekend tho I didn't ask for it.  I did ask for Monday, but not the weekend.  I don't typically ask them for weekends off for this is the nonsense they throw at me.  I'd rather just keep working Saturdays and have Sundays off like they have been doing, mostly, for quite a while now.

And then there's the kid who was demanding to know why I was charging him X amount of money when it was cheaper last month?  I had to explain to him that that was what we agreed upon when he moved in. This was one of the people who took advantage of my $200 off deal.  I took off X amount per month for 3 months adding up to $200 and now he's having to pay the normal price. Which is still cheaper than any or most other places around.  

There is no word yet on Swepco or the septic system.
