Location: Office, 101 Collins
Time: noon-ish
Feeling: mega peeved

Going through "I hate my job" phase. Possibly too peeved to write coherently about it. Plus, the danger of someone from work reading and getting me fired for it. Or something.

*Sigh*. I knew it's been too good for too long. It's that time of the year again.

I just want to crawl under the blanket and cover my head. And stay there for the rest of the day (as I'm convinced that when it rains, it pours - so bad things never happen by themselves. there's always more to follow. Thus, it's better to stay in bed on days like this).

Oh and I'm broke. Very broke. I haven't been paid for this month since I've taken unpaid leave for pro bono work at PATRIR.

Any other shitty news? Got a ticket fine this morning. On the line where I usually get the city circle - I just couldn't be bothered waiting for it. Farken. Although I did deserve that one. It's kind of like speeding tickets. I definitely deserved a few of those but just never been caught. Same with met tickets. Definitely deserve more than one. Actually I might see how much it is before I conclude that.

How much is a met fine these days? I remember having to pay $120 for having my feet on the seat to Connex sucked big time!

No idea. Haven't got it yet. Apparently when they contact you, you can provide reasons for not validating the ticket. I plan to write a letter explaining the stupidity of the ticket system and how catching a tram to a location costs 3 times more than catching the train to the same location. Which is why I only validate the ticket on one of the 3 trams that I have to catch.

dude... I thought you actually realised that it was "all your fault" and now you're going to blame the poor old Melbourne public transport system - come on! where is your shame mate? ;) in all honesty - fark em I say! Bloody ticket inspectors having the right to tackle you and stuff... very nasty business!
