Work Sucks.


Kevin Chew Chronicles 68
Work sucks but we already know that. The worst part about my job is that I can easily say I am the hardest working and the most underpaid. I have 5 titles but only one pay. I got promoted from Assistant Bookkeeper to Bookkeeper but who cares since it didn't mean any increase in pay. In addition to that, I am now the official Office Manager (so what, more work no pay). Other people who do nothing are getting hefty raises and this is only there part-time job. All this is for the sacrifice of my dreams and aspirations. So in order to get my money's worth...less work will be done and more Chronic for everyone!!!
Fact on Chew:
Work has become so stressful that my first grey beard hair has come in. And since I have been letting it grow, I have noticed that red and gold hairs have been growing in also...Weird but as a kid, my mom would randomly pull gold hairs from my scalp and tell me that it meant I would be rich. OK, still waiting for the prophecy.
Taking Work Home

I love the air freshner at work so much that I wound up buying the same exact one for my apartment. Now I am reminded of work everywhere I "go"


Gridlock

This Republican National Convention has painted itself a huge bullseye but the most disturbing part is the fact that they love to give every location on President Bush's Itinerary. The news announced what hotel he is staying at (The Waldolf Astoria), when he is arriving and which firehouse in Queens he will be "hanging at" for a photo session. Is this absolutely necessary? It makes no sense because who really cares?...Protesters and Terrorists


Don't Let the Cat Out of the Bag

My girlfriend's cat had given birth to 6 kittens which means we had to give some away. And since my co-worker wanted one, I had to put the cat in a bag and bring it with me on my daily commute on the beloved MTA.

Oh what fun it was looking suspicious on the subway with my hand constantly in a black handbag (trying to calm the kitty) during the week of the heightened security and yet no one stopped or questioned me. And once I got into work, I had to make a little home for him in my file cabinet to contain him. I put some food, water and litter for him and what does he do? He knocks over the water all over my files. Lucky for him, I am a sucker for Pussy.

Me Chinese, Me Play Joke...
How does the Roast Pork in your Pork Fried Rice turn Red? Are there red pigs or is it a red cat?


Party Tricks

I was recently at Pam's Graduation/Birthday party and one thing her father is infamous for is great home cooking. So when it came time to eat, I obviously stuffed my face with all his goodies. One thing I remembered he was famous for was his 4 Alarm Chili. And since I love to crap, I would obviously help myself to anything resembling chili. After my first round of eating, I head back to see if I missed anything and low and behold, I spot a crockpot full of chili. I immediatley help myself and start spreading the word. As soon as I sat down, I prepared myself for goodness only to realize (after 2 bites) that I had helped myself to a bowl of homeade tomato sauce. I kept eating a little more because I felt bad wasting it but then I realized I was a fool. Sorry to all the starving people in China but I wound up throwing it out.

Please forgive me China!

Mike Hoahing's Two Cents

Jackie (his girlfriend) and I (Mike Hoahing) are leaving the apartment and she says "Why are you locking the bolt just lock the door lock?"

Well the whole thing was that she was like just lock to door lock if anything. And I was like, "The door lock? Why not the bolt?" Listen, BOLT, door lock, BOLT, door lock, which one would you rather lock?


Worth the Wait

As you have read in prior Chronic, I have been struggling to play my first game of Counterstrike on-line. After returning my game to Target and emailing the gaming company about my problems with registration, they finally settle my problems and my first game has been played. Problem now is that I am hooked. I was up til 5am playing (mostly getting killed) and my hand has been cramping up because of the uncomfortable use of the mouse/keyboard combination. Well worth the 5 year wait.


Germans

My friend Benson is like me and The Donald...we are all germaphobes. We wash our hands before and after we use the bathroom. He recently thanked me for the toilet paper in the bowl trick (to prevent butt splashing when the poop hit the water) and he also revealed a funny story about his past. When he was younger, he got tested for all sorts of STD's, including HIV, and he found out the hard way that he didn't need to since he was still a virgin.


HUMBLE MOMENT: Usually when I go to the bathroom at work, I sit and whip out my phone and either play games or flip through my photo album. But after a night of burritos, I went to work the next day and whipped out my phone as I sat on the bowl and took a brief moment to think...This is going to require some serious concentration. I put the phone away and just sat there and thought about pooping until the beast was gone. After it was all said and done, I searched frantically for the air freshner. Needless to say, I feel sorry for the next guy going in there.
Closer...To make up for the short Chronic 2 weeks ago, I made last weeks Chronic a bit longer to satisfy the fan's cravings. And after all the compliments I got, I must say, I did enjoy numerous people approaching me and telling me,
"Wow Kevin, what a Long One!"

As an Asian, you don't hear that alot...
