neverwhereI have a new job!
I have a new car!
I quite possibly have a lawsuit pending against Hollywood Video because they owe me $500 in unpaid wages and never gave me breaks!
WOOOHOOOOOO!
I was hired on monday at Technicolour Creative Services in Hollywood (just off the Sunset Strip) and start work there next week, which is just so exciting I'm still finding it difficult to contain my glee. I'm basically doing menial labour but it won't be difficult and I'll most likely be promoted rather soon as other areas in the company are always looking for ripe and ready employees. Now you can all say you know someone in the film industry! Aren't you lucky. *grins impishly*
In case you've forgotten, I was rear-ended on the motorway about three weeks ago, and last night I finally got my replacement. It's a newer model of the old one (2003 Hyundai Accent), with only 4000 miles on it, so it's practically brand new, and is the most gorgeous sparkly silver colour. Mmmmm. She just needs a name -- so far I'm favouring something with 'silver' in Elvish (like Celebriel) or Islington, Izzie for short. Isn't that cute? Something angelic and shiny would suit her best. Any suggestions? :)
And the lawsuit...well, my father the hotshot labour lawyer knows someone who's filing a class action suit against my former employer and wants me to get in on the action. We'll wait and see what happens. Wouldn't it be fantastic if I won a million dollars? Awww yeahhhh. *G*

Don't forget the little people when you win (excuse me, are awarded) your million.
