If you're ever in the 213, holla at a playa

I've decided that I hate the phrase "take care". I don't know why, but it always strikes me as really cold when someone says it to me. Not that I'm in a position to accuse anyone of being cold as I'm just about the most unaffectionate person in the world, but the expression just bothers me. It just seems kind of fake-- like the sort of thing you say to someone when you want to be polite, but you don't actually give two shits whether they take care of themselves or not because you probably wouldn't notice if they dropped off the face of the earth entirely.  Does that make sense? Yeah, probably not.

Work is slow today. I do have all sorts of boring paperwork stuff that I could be doing right now, but I don't feel like it. I have to interview someone for Daniel's position this afternoon. It strikes me as kind of odd that I'm interviewing someone who's applying to be my boss. Also that they want a clueless 23-year-old intern to conduct an interview. I've never even done a real interview as an interviewee before. But I don't think my opinion will actually carry any weight in the hiring decision, so I figure I'll just go in and have a conversation with the dude for like 15 minutes and that'll be that. Should be interesting.

One of my new clients told me in his assessment this morning that he and his family were evicted from his last apartment because it was infested with demons. Also that the psychiatrist that prescribed him meds just doesn't understand his "demonic problems" because she's not religious. So of course he doesn't take the meds because he doesn't need them. okaaay... He should be an interesting one, too.

Alrighty, off to explain to my client why he got fired from his temp position with us and why he might want to refrain from calling his boss a "stupid, fatass racist" for changing his hours in the future. Take care!
