Starting on monday. I don't know what to expect. I have to
work in a team. It is not what i want to do.

drop in remarks about philosophy, the foundations of science
and psychoanalysis.

they'll consider you an intellectual then and thus find it
acceptable, that you're not very social.

[no joke; it can work.]

I doubt my co-workers will be interested in these subjects
and if they are, a factory hall is not the best place to
talk about it.

So instead of them disliking him because he doesn't
socialize, they will dislike him because he thinks he is
smarter than them. And that is going to benefit him
because...

No one really disliked me on my former jobs, i just got
ignored after a while. And i actually liked that

they wouldn't dislike him. if he were not an intellectual
and would not socialize with them, then they might dislike
him, because they think he just doesn't like them.

but once they think he's an intellectual it might seem
natural to them that he doesn't socialize much. because that
is merely what intellectuals do. they are busy with their
deep thoughts and thus don't chit-chat. it's nothing to be
offended about if an intellectual doesn't talk to you. but
if a normal dude doesn't talk to you it's offensive, because
nothing is more natural for an average person to enter into
random conversations.

that's the logic behind that idea. it's not a safe-strategy.
but i've seen how it's successfully been put into practice.

expanding your social interaction?

Yeah, but i don't like the circumstances. I will be judged
by the things i say and do more criticlly than in a 'normal'
(non work related) enviroment and that makes me nervous.

Just take some e and dance all workday long. No music- just
dance and dance and dance... and see how long it takes for
security to come and ask you to dance some more.

Congrats on job! Jobs can be healthy, despite their ability
to sometimes suck the life out of people.

just dont talk and think about the money you'll earn..leave
your co-workers alone and you will be the man. Listen and
learn. Please update this thread after every working day.

Speaking of new jobs, I'm gonna be some long-hair-mofo extra
on a new American tv series, and I'm excited about it. Cuz
I figure if I can just extend my arm long enough to the
director to give an under table hj, maybe I can get a
recurring role as a hippy who gives handjobs with 10 minutes
of screentime. Filming is Mon/Tue.

My first day is over. I work together with a fat dude who
likes to play video games, watch movies and has 4 kids.
I bet he thinks i am strange. He talks a lot, so that makes
it pretty easy for me.
My live is not going in the direction i want it to go.

Should i start drinking heavily? I heard that makes it
easier? Decissions, decissons..

heavy drinking (surprisingly) turns you into a woman.
drinking alcohol causes the body to produce more estrogen.
your estrogen-levels will rise and your testorene-levels
will fall. you'll turn fat and grow breasts. ... a lot of
people think male-boobs are just fat .. but actually they're
often real breasts caused by hormon-imbalances due to
alcohol and the like. (real gynecomastia as opposed to
pseudo-gynecomastia).

anyway ... i was drinking for a while and it just makes you
feel worse each day. i don't recommend it.

you could hook up with nerdy chicks via last.fm instead of
drinking heavily, for instance.

So the chatty fat guy seemed to be strangly interested in
me, especially the music i listen to.
So, today i gave him a few old Cd's i had lying around in my
car.
He seems to consume a lot of media, but only the mainstream
stuff.
Maybe he'll like it, but i doubt it..
