dragonimpOhai internets, long time no see.
Well, the job has concluded. Or at least I assume it has, since when I got there Sunday morning there were maybe 3 other cars in the lot and no one in the building. The two people I talked to also worked for Manpower (there were four staffing agencies) and hadn't worked Friday or Saturday, so our best guess? The project concluded one of those two days and Manpower friggin' forgot to tell us. I would've liked to know this before driving all the way out there, but at least it wasn't weekday traffic. The rest of the day felt like a bonus day after that, so whatever.
Still would've liked to know beforehand.
The job was terribly mind-numbing and boring, just verifying tax information (for the love of god, people, make your checks legible). At times I was reading the numbers to myself in Spanish to keep myself awake; otherwise I was zoning out like crazy. But it's done now (apparently), and I can go back to looking for something more permanent.
I have a lot to catch up on around the house and elsewhere, so I still don't know when I'll have time to catch up online. But I should be around more, at least.
