arrrrrggggg, pt is pissing me off so much ><

pt originally told me they'll have work for me till end of october which is when i'm leaving for HK. and they asked if i could come in regularly, so i tell them yeah, tuesday and thursdays should be good. but they're waiting for more illustrations so i've been doing other random work like checking finished apps and putting together a style guide. and last couple of weeks i had to switch the days i worked since there were things happening at intern i really wanted to be there for.

so intern owner starts teaching again starting this week and i asked if i could change one of my days to monday instead for the rest of the time i'm working there (which is sept and oct). i get an email back saying how it's "kind of annoying" that i change my days all the time. i would understand that if they didn't write "Working Hours: Flexible" in their ad =_= wth, i applied for the job because the hours were flexible. they're hardly flexible if i can't ask for a change. and i think what really pisses me off is that because they're waiting on illustrations, they don't actually have that much work for me to do. i finished checking all their completed apps, they were rushing me to finish a style guide which i did, and from what i understood they didn't have anything else for me to do.

so email back was all pissy, going it's annoying you're always changing your days and we're not sure if we need you. so we'll contact you if we need you in the future. this is all AFTER they said they'll have work till end of october, AFTER they wrote on their posting that the position has flexible working hours, AFTER they asked me if i have plans to staying longer than what i first told them.

rawr! i just feel like the boss is such a selfish, self-righteous prick >< he's always right, everything is always an inconvenience to him (even though most of the times i was in... he wasn't), and you know what? i told them right at the beginning that i have an intern. it's not like i sprang this on them suddenly.

screw them, i'm going to apply for graphic design postings i see now. i was going to hold off till after i got back since i promised them i would be available for work till end of october. but if they're not going to be courteous to me, then why the hell should i wait for them?

they better pay me what i listed on the invoice though or i'll slander them all over the internet or something D< they want to "confirm" that i did all the work i'm "claiming". if they cut pay because of creative differences i will seriously want to murder something.

i totally need to make/find myself an angry icon XD

went to farewell lunch with andrew, steve and steve's friend. it was fun, me and andrew killed time eating warabi mochi, looking at his photos and complaining about the heat XD

i totally put off visiting the edo museum *again* since it was so hot sat. i know the museum is indoors but i gotta hike outside to get to the station, hike to the museum and all the different places i wanted to hit in the area to make the train fare worth it XD since pt is essentially "firing" me, i guess i'll go tomorrow XD only good thing about losing the pt, i can spend more time at intern and i can spend mondays doing my own thing since intern owner teaches on mondays.

i hope i can find another "flexible hours" (haha, maybe my concept of flexible hours is different from japanese idea) position other than teaching english. i'd really like to have some relevant experience, which is another reason i'm not too hung up over losing the pt? the pay was nice but the work itself wasn't too "creative" since we're following a template and there are like ten billion rules you gotta follow (it's like worse than rolling out stuff at armstrong)

stupid pt email killed my good mood when i got home D: i will vent by watching bones and mentalist XD and maybe trying to tone some more of the crack, looking at it always makes me laugh XD
