Pretty quiet in the hood since the great "police presence" last Friday. I'm still working  temp for the attorney. Yesterday, he interviewed & hired someone else while I was sitting there! WTF? He hasn't sat down with me and told me how to do a damn thing. I print off pages, type letters, use a dictaphone- which I had NEVER done, and papers just keep piling up on the desk and NOTHING goes out. He is so far behind on work because the paralegal he had working for him was telling him she was working on things, but never did them. What a joy. The girl he hired, is only getting her AS in paralegal next quarter. She has no more knowledge about what needs to be done in the office than I do. We are not legal secretaries, which is what I think he really needs. She never used a dictaphone (I asked when he left the room) and she doesn't know anything about trials. Oh well...
This morning I got a phone call from another temp agency. Putting my name into NY Life for an admin asst position that pays $16 an hour. Oh Boy!

Been a little quiet out there. Saw some female get a can of Old Milwaukee from somewhere (BP on Montgomery?) and walk over to Hiyah's place. She didn't even have it in a paper bag. There are no Sunday sales, so I don't know where she got it from.

Saturday AM, Rachel called me at 8 AM (can you believe it, she was awake at that hour on a Saturday?).  I was at Starbucks trying to enjoy some quiet time. She had been stopped by the police on Friday night. The MONEY PIT had no license plate light. WTF? Can you believe it? I checked it when I got home and sure enough, there was no light. I reached in behind the bumper and found the light but there is nothing to hold it in place above the license plate. I duct taped the hell out of it and now it shines down on the plate.
