Remember how I wrote that enrapturing post about my job? Well I got a new job wherein (get this!) I sit at a desk and do the same task over and over again! A job is a job, I ain't hatin'.
At my new job, I'm allowed to listen to music or whatever quietly and not on headphones and since I can't trust my iPod on shuffle (I have an unexpected amount of Odd Future and other things that middle-aged, racist women would not love to hear) that rules out music for me. I could download podcasts I guess, but all the podcasts I listen to are NSFW in some way of other. So I decided I could listen to baseball games. I like baseball a lot. The Toronto Blue Jays are supposed to do well this year. Also Brett Lawrie's got a cute butt.
The issue I am encountering is that the ideal device for listening to baseball games is a radio and all I've got is an iPod that gets wifi. Okay, cool, just gotta get me a sweet sports app. I could probably do some research and get the appropriate stuff to listen to games. This is 2013! My fingertips are here!
Problem though. I can't access the wifi at work. I assume this is a precaution taken by management to ensure that actual work is being done while people are "working". I find myself in a strange situation now where my technology is too advanced for my purposes. I just want a radio. Preferably something that was once a prize in a cereal box in the late 70's. Something with as few knobs as possible because, I am versed in Microsoft Excel, Outlook and Word however, I think a radio would give me difficulty.
