Like the fact that I know that at 7 and 7:30 I can catch The Simpsons on TV. I haven't lived out in California for 8 years but I knew it would be on. Lo and Behold - it was.
Today I got to learn why people DON'T like MUNI. After my interview today (more on that later) I went for a walk down to New College then over to the Castro station to get home. As I walked down the stairs, I JUST missed the M line. So I waited about 10 minutes for the next. Which was packed. We're talking sardines, square peg of people exiting the train only to be replaced by another wall of people. So I waited for the next M train (10 minutes). Same thing. I waited again (15 minutes). Same thing. Once again, I waited (10 minutes) and managed to squeeze myself in and actually found a seat. It took 45 minutes and I was so damn glad to get home (especially after my 90 minute walk around town). I can totally see the bad side to cheap transit.
SO THE INTERVIEW! It's for a non-profit group located in SOMA. The office is small and I would be an office administrator. I think he was somewhat impressed with my personality so that's good. I don't know if I did the right or wrong thing when I went back to him and asked him about an error I found during my typing quiz. the passage said "...which had been closed four decades." Now, should it have been "for four decades" or "for decades"? Anyways - I asked, he said "wow, good catch..." and then I finished my test and that was that. Hopefully I'll hear back from them.
Tomorrow I drive back to Davis for my OTC meeting. Thanks to my walk, right now I'm at negative calories for the day and seriously need to make my dinner.
Plus side of the MUNI? I saw some beautiful people (like the two Punks and the girl who looked like she was genuinely concerned about SOMETHING, ANYTHING, but was cute) and some crazy people (like the young business man, probably my age, who stood in the middle of the aisle, looking out the window, eyes unfocused and GRINNING, full teeth shown). Good times, good times.
