[QUOTE="Maglitchtrix, post: 42476, member: 2533"] Back at work tonight. Will try to catch up on a few more entries. 5 March Tonight I am going to work for Ronny. Sarah gave me my (his) phone and told me the supervisors name. She also showed me where the uniform is located at that I need to wear. Its not bad looking at all. Grays against black. I don't have to carry a firearm but I do have what is referred to as a tazer. We call them voltrons. I haven't had any specific training with these types of devices so hopefully I will not have to use it. I have all of my military training at my disposal for confrontations. It seems as though I have retained my skill set from back home during the shift. My body doesn't respond as well, but that I assume is from the lack of positive stimulation on Ronny's end. I woke up this morning and forced myself through 100 pressdowns. By the end my arms were shaking fairly bad and I felt as though I might vomit. Maybe the oxygen saturation is different here as well. I usually do not have this much trouble breathing. Sarah is spending the day with her parents so I think I might try and check out the library here. Where I am from and here do not seem all that different so I want to try and brush up on a little bit of history and see if I can ascertain the major similarities and differences. I have noticed a few things on the surface but nothing major. We have television programming where I am from as well.
