devil went down to coventry
so, it's official: i'm in hell. the devil-machine aka the lottery showed up yesterday. we spent an hour and a half activating lots and figuring out how to punch in a Pick 3. the rest of the day was spent in agony over how to make secure this un-make-securable panopoly of tickets, betting sheets and other ohio lottery paraphanalia. then there's the policies and procedures which must be strictly adhered to like don't sell tickets of any kind to folks under 18 or that megamillions tickets cannot be cancelled.
it's a chaos i would have gladly avoided. i'd rather sell porn starring me than do this. but since any sex i have is purely imaginative at this point, i guess i'm catering to gambling addicts and porn addicts now. lucky me, i get to be in charge of lottery stuff because i sold scratchoffs at one job 7 years ago. i get a raise but now i have to write an opening and closing procedure, keep track of paperwork involving it, train everybody on proper procedure (like don't take credit cards or checks as payment for tickets), etc. yay for responsibility. blegh.
it's great that i'm thought of as the responsible one but i know that some days i feel like saying bugger responsibility! i don't want to do a goddamn thing!
now i shall whine and pout like the big baby i am. suck it up!
