I told the man to stop and move away from the women and that security would be coming to talk to him. He ignored me so I moved closer and tapped him on the shoulder, then he pushed me back and I was moving back towards him when a security guard grabed my shoulder and said they would handle it. an hour later they come back and had me fill out the report form and yelled at me for getting involved, Tim (bakery facility manager) said I did the right thing since all the guests were yelling at me to stop him. He said that nothing will happen to me for it even though I should be suspended without pay. Then he asked me to go to centrilized and make fudge for 4 hours. So I worked a 10 1/2 hour day that i thought would be a boring day of cleaning. Goddamn i love the bakery.&lt;/font&gt;</description>

  <title>The best day in a long time.</title>
  <link>http://just-nick.livejournal.com/2951.html</link>
  <description>So today was my day off. BUt instead of doing absolutly nothing, i went to Disneyland. I I was in the car when it hit me hard. I was going to Disneyland. I hadn&apos;t been there since 8th grade. I don&apos;t like big crowds or theme park rides. BUt then I thought, &quot;at least i&apos;m with my long time friends.&quot; NO I wasn&apos;t. I look aroung the Chevy subburban and see Aubrey Kelly, Christine Howell, Jason Reynolds, Dan Salinas and Amanda MacLeod. WTF? Aubrey and I are buddies but we don&apos;t hang out much. Christine and I used to hang out in sophomore year (the year I started working at sea world). Jason and I were somewhat friends during middle school. THe other two I had only met once or twice. They were a tight group of friends. I spent a lot of time just watching them. I never had a group of friends like that. All positive and caring. Friends that don&apos;t just forget about you when something new comes along. It meant so much to me to be there with them. I don&apos;t know who to count as friends anymore but I hope that I could consider them friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyways, I had an awesome day with amazing people. While on Pirates of the Caribbean, we wanted to go see the movie again, so they wanted to see it saturday night but I said I had to work, they asked when my next day off was and then i realized, being with a groups of friends like that made me wish i had more time off. Real friends Remember the little things. It makes the memories more special. I will remember disneyland today for a long time.</description>

  <description>I just got home from work 15 minutes ago. Sometimes I think i became a supervisor because i did something wrong. Oh well, next week I work 40 hours standard pay ($14.05) and 11 hours of ot ($21.8). I think I will like that paycheck.</description>

  <title>My day off...</title>
  <link>http://just-nick.livejournal.com/1549.html</link>
  <description>well I had plans for the day but they fell through. THen I was bored and Amanda said we should go to the Del Mar fair. We didn&apos;t end up doing that cause I had to go to dinner with my dad at 5. So we went and saw finding nemo. I took andy to work. went and had dinner. then went out to see hollywood homicide with ciera then home then to the casino. then watched comedy central so I could have my brain shrink. I guess I&apos;m just gonna sit here till i leave for work.</description>

  <description>So today was graduation. It was really boring and I had a monster headache. I also learned today that I don&apos;t have a last name. Thanks Ms. Smith. The rest of my day was boring as sin but at least all the people that care about me called. Too bad no one called. Oh actually my great uncle called and asked if he could get some sea world tickets. I haven&apos;t seen or talked to this guy in 5 years and he thinks i&apos;m a bank for sea world tickets. yay. I&apos;m gonna have a great summer. Oh and my best friends all abandoned me tonight. Can&apos;t wait to go to work tomorrow where even if I don&apos;t have friends, i have respect.</description>

  <title>goddamn it</title>
  <link>http://just-nick.livejournal.com/791.html</link>
  <description>I had to close tonight and I didn&apos;t have any fucking leads. I&apos;m so glad Yvette is cool and stopped by to help me with all the paperwork and overrings. Andy worked with me there again today. I kinda wish he would transfer over there and become a lead cause they need him badly. Also Sean Greenwald was there at the park and stopped by the bakery to see if i was in. I asked him if he wanted a 5.5 hour shift. he said yes. It put me over my planned hours for the day so I&apos;ll get shit for that but I&apos;ll explain that we don&apos;t have enough employees and that it takes more people that have no idea of what there doing than it would if they hired us some more people. Anyway, anyone that is 16 and need a job. call me. I know plenty of facilities that are still understaffed.</description>

  <title>I&apos;m a rockin&apos; friend and a damn good supervisor</title>
  <link>http://just-nick.livejournal.com/687.html</link>
  <description>Well because Andy started working at Sea World again but is still in high school (this week) his only shifts were this weekend. So I checked the schedule at the bakery and saw that we could use him for the 2:30-8:30 shifts. So I help out the bakery and I help a friend make more money. Plus, he can tell Amanda what its like to work there so if she gets hired this week she will know whats up. Sometimes I&apos;m too good at this whole life thing. Anywhores, time to wash myself. Later.</description>

  <description>So today was my last day in vending for who knows how long. It was a good day too and I got to close with Amber so we had fun. Also it was Andy&apos;s first day back. He did really good considering how long its been since he last vended. It was weird though because I was his supervisor and was trying to look out for him while treating him equally. I&apos;m gonna miss it over there. I&apos;m not looking forward to my shifts at the bakery. Hopefully Amanda will get hired there so I can talk to someone. I will try to steal people from vending when we are short shifts. Anywhores, gonna stop rambling about my loser life.</description>
