Some random thoughts
By DaTeefa
Here I sit in front of my computer at work
It's my last day at Kidd Valley
The drool slowly drips out my mouth as I type this
My breath is bad and theres still crust in my eyes from this morning
Lunch was busy but now there's no customers.
God I hate this place
I've worked for this company for five years
Since I was sixteen
My position now is Assistant manager
I make 11.08 per hour
When I started I made 7.50
I realized this fall that I was trapped
The sooner I quit the better
Did I want to do Kidd Valley as a career?
What the fuck was I thinking?
I want a career in the ski industry
I don't care if no one will ski in twenty years because of global warming or the economy crashing
I'll still be skiing
I'll be that creepy hermit living in a mountain shack in north alaska
The kids in a nearby village will have rumors of and abominable snowman living in the mountain
That snowman will be me
So here I sit finishing up my time in this hell hole
A kickass weekend at whistler planned out for tomorrow
And I start my new job at a ski shop next week
I have so much to learn and do
I'm so excited for it
This ski season will be the best in my life
The one I will never forget
I look forward to skiing with all you guys
Fuck yes bitches
Peace and love

the 05-06 season yes, it was a really fun season, was it shitty for you?
and it should be known to all that working in a ski shop is actually really gay, although, I am grateful for the knowledge that I acquired working there.

ah well, at sturtevant's and kidd valley I made about $11 an hour when I left, down here during peak season (like right now) I make on average 20-25 dollars an hour, plus I ski all summer :)
