But Hungy, you said...

Alright, time to get this PoS post written and done with.

So I did say you guys could get free sushi. But unfortunately for every event there are winners and losers. And I got fired for christmas break, so well, sucks to be the people who didn't get any. Not my fault really. But anyway, I thought it might interest you in what went on during my first job ever.

Without further ado, I shall introduce my four newest friends. They are Dick, Winfrey, Roberta and Shawn. I can basically say that without them, the whole sushi operation would not be possible; they are involved in pretty much every aspect of the job, from making the rice to washing dishes to cleaning tables and everything else in between. No grain of rice makes it from the grain sack to the sushi in your hands without the intervention of these four fine characters. Incidentally they are quadruplets.

Now you might ask, but hungy, if they're quadruplets how do you tell the difference? Well its true that they all look a bit alike, but if you look closely at them you can tell that they have individual differences that separate them. For example, Shawn has this large gap down his back where you can poke a finger through, and Dick has bits of sponge embedded all over his body. Roberta is the 'normal' one of the four, and Winfrey is the only one that's wider than long.

And yes, they're all chux wipes.

I did finally get initiated into the art of Sushi rolling on the last day of work, shortly before my boss(es) fired me. He said that in Japan he had to make rice for 3 years before rolling the actual sushi, but since I only had 3 weeks, I'm still a noob. So I rolled a couple of them at the end of the day, and they came out all demented. One of them had the rice one side and the salmon in the corner, and the prawn one was all over the place when I examined it between bites. I did learn the secret of those inside out rolls, its actually fairly easy (involves glad wrap) but apart from that, I still haven't learnt how to make sushi. Apart from the sushi rice. I'm a real pro at that now.

Also realised its freaking christmas eve day. Merry christmas to all your blog goers, hope you're all having a more fun christmas eve than I, though it isn't all that much to have more fun than me.

Here's an old one, for better or worse that I heard yesterday:
Steven:"You don't want to hear the joke about the bird..."
Vince:"Why not?"
Steven:"It'll go right over your head."
Vince:"Ooooooooooh..."
Dehan:"For that matter you don't wanna hear the joke about the brick wall."
Vince:"Why?"
OJ:"F**king Jenkins."
Dehan:"You'll never get over it!"

What I have been up to

So, if anyone hasn't heard already, I have a job at a sushi shop over near parliament station. Before you ask, no I don't make the actual sushi, but here's a list of things that I do do:
-Make the rice
-Make more rice
-Make even more rice
-yes the job is mostly about making rice
-Wash lettuce
-Make tuna (canopen+mash)
-Make beef (microwave)
-Make chicken (microwave)
-Wash dishes
-Wipe tables/windows
-Make instant Miso soup
-Sweep/Mop floor
-Bring out/stack chairs/tables

I plan to go through each of the activities in some detail in upcoming posts. Just so you know.

Yesterday I saw Dehan for the first time in quite a while. He has turned into quite the hardass (or always was but we never knew):
Dehan:"Hrm, this will be the first time that I'm having VB in 13 years."
After he has some-

Dehan:"Man, It still tastes like greywater."
Kylie:"I'd rather have cocktales or mixes instead of beer."
Dehan:"Fancy b****."

And then today over skype:
Vince:"Why is there someone here who sounds like Dehan?"
Dehan:"Yes, generally I do sound like myself."
Vince:"Oh."

I have finally discovered, with Raymo's help, that stats button for this blog. You can check out his blog if you haven't seen it yet (well written, alot of social criticism. How was that for an instant review), and here are the stats that I found amusing:

This post is still by far the most popular post, with twice the viewcount (at a paltry 76) of the next one.

Now none of you can sue me for transparency (there lack of). Also I happen to have gotten my hands on a copy of the newest call of duty. That is my latest excuse for not updating frequently.
