Aah~ Life is eating my LJ time lately. I really need to go to bed soon, since I'm getting up at 6 to go to work at 7. I finally got my schedule yesterday. I have one free weekend in all 9 weeks of work. Great. >_< I went to work today to "walk beside" as it's called in swedish. To you know, see how it all works. There are some changes, and quite a lot of new oldies living there, but I think most of the routines are still the same so I think it'll all be ok. I worked for 4,5 hours today and my feet almost died already. Tomorrow I'll have a whole day and how I'm going to deal with that, I do not know. Need to get myself a pair of ugly work shoes. Ugly because work shoes always are.
I'm working a lot during the festival too, but I mentioned it today, and it seems like I won't have any problems changing those days. Which will mean me working whole weeks without one day off, but I can cope with that for one week of you know, life. My first week I'll only have one day off. >__< But I still won't work full-time this summer, due to short work days. I have a lot of 5 hours and 6,5 hours days. Oh well.
Talking of work days. In Sweden we have a 40 hours work week, if you're working fulltime. The other day I watched Sex and the City and Miranda needed to cut down on workhours "55 tops". I was very much O___O Isn't there any laws for how much you're allowed to work in the US?
God. Swedish people are so spoiled.
Oh, and there was the elections for the EU parlament this Sunday. The percentage of voting in Sweden was 44% I think, which is more than any other time, but in Europe as a whole, the voting had gone down. And 44% is really really bad to begin with, considering that that parlament decides on a whole lot of things concerning us. The really scary part is the amount of votes put on racist partys. They don't call themselves racists, but yeah. Consodering the questions that will be taken up in the near future with immigration and stuff it looks really, really bad. Oh well.
The Pirate Party in Sweden got a lot of votes and one chair in the parlament. That IPRED law is making a lot of people angry.
Ok. Really need to go to bed now. Tomorrow when I come home from work I will catch up with all you guys and loads of dramas. YAY! :D
