I was just out in the rain for a bit. Very light for now. I have a path I can take that gets me from the office to the subway without having to be without a roof over my head. No such path exists when getting back to Astoria. It’s not a big deal, really, to get a bunch of rain. But it might mess up transit anyway.<\/div>\n

Wow, this is the weakest strength coffee I can remember finding around here. I might have to go back out for backup from a legitimate coffee provider. This coffee is from the 123 Market, where they misspell “Market” hundreds of times daily. It’s spelled “MASKET” on all their sandwich and sushi containers.<\/div>\n

I wonder if I am wasting my time here at this job as much as I fear. I wanted it to be a 6-month gig but I kinda fell in love with the work. Then came a pretty long period of burnout when every day felt like hot coals prodding my eyeballs. Now I’m somewhere between, recognizing the monotony of things while embracing the randomnesses.<\/div>\n

It’s the finances that are troublesome. I’m losing money at this job. If I quit today I’d have less money than I started with. I guess I knew this going in, that you go broke working for The City.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
