Ahoy-hoy
The last half-year has been interesting, due mainly to the strange places i've been finding work.
The porn-store with gay cruise lounge was interesting, selling amyl nitrate and crack-pipes (though I stopped selling the later to salve my conscience and to watch the addicts chuck a hissy-fit), but I decided to leave when one of the other stores turned up evidence of kid porn in a police raid. As a side effect i am completely over porn.
Being young, male and fairly unshockable, it is easy to be employed in Sydney at gay bars, so, whilst i was waiting for my teacher registration to come through, I've been pulling beers and doing up corsets at one of the gayest joints ever. Nice tips.
Dude (a friend of a former-colleague): "Do you want to go on a date?"
Me: "Thanks, but I'm afraid you're the wrong gender."
Dude: (with a look of consternation) "What, do you go for transexuals?"
Me: (perplexed) "Err... no, i like women."
Dude: (relieved) "OH, good, that's okay?"
I reckon I'd get bored shitless working in a straight bar. Hopefully I can get an interesting job that actually utilizes my brain or my animating skills one-day.
Anyway, come thursday i leave, and I'm off to Japan for engrish instruction and adventure.
