Got a funny idea. Going to see if I can get a bunch of people to start posting on the schedule app. Sorry, can't work today, going dancing, thanks for understanding hahaha.

Hahaha, that might be a fun way to bring attention to the issue.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy...
(although apparently All play and no work makes Jack a mere toy...)

Lol. How about show up for your shifts and play when you're scheduled off instead of learning to screw over the people you were supposed to be working with.  Or, here is an idea. Request time off for planned events, or ask someone if they can switch shifts to cover for you. Sorry won't be there for my shift because of something stupid like going dancing lol. I don't even want to waste my time and effort training someone like that. And doing it on their first schedule even doesn't bode very well for their reliability or responsibility.

Just saw some note left by a new trainee at my place of employment that I've not met or even knew was their until I just saw the note. Note says. "I won't be coming in next Friday because I'm going dancing with my girlfriend thanks for understanding." lol. WTF is wrong with people in this day and age. I can't even fathom trying to use the excuse, sorry too busy to work, got to go dancing you know. I got priorities and going dancing trumps showing up for the job I just applied for and got hired to do. Great first impression of your work ethics dude. Sad thing is, even if he doesn't find someone to cover the shift for him and just no shows he will still have a job. That should be an automatic I decided to quit my job for my dance night situation.

I should send the boss a text and tell him I'm not coming in to work Wednesday because I'm going dancing instead lol.

I did think it would be funny though, if one of these days if I decided to randomly hop on a plane to the Amazon like I have a very strong desire and possibly intent to actually do at some point. Send a random text to the boss, can't work today I've gotten myself lost somewhere in the Amazon. Send him some photos of the jungle and ocean beaches ha ha.

A couple of near misses. Two different work related dreams I recognized something out of the norm. I had every intention to do a reality check to find out if it was a dreamsign. But in both cases I woke up before I could make anything of it.

  Random Mall Monster

So random WTF. I'm in a mall sort of shopping center when I find a musical area and the dream is a normal enough dream of playing music which is fairly common theme for me.

I'm trying to figure out this bizarre instrument that is some kind of futuristic combination of guitar and electronic synthesizer. The instrument has a guitar neck with strings with a computer looking with pads on it for making electronic sounds. There is a band there playing music and I begin to figure out this instrument and begin playing all sorts of cool stuff that goes along perfectly with what the band is playing when...

I don't even know how it happens or where the monster comes from. But the next thing I know there is this freaky mutated monster I don't know how to properly describe. Tan blubbery loose skin, gaping fanged maw in a monstrous head tentacled, arms and legs.

This thing comes out of nowhere and latches onto someone near me, wrapping it's tentacled appendages around them. The monster opens it's mouth wide and slithering/snaking out of it's mouth comes a long thick slimy tubular member which forces itself into the persons mouth and down their throat. The monster presses it's face against theirs and the persons throat can be seen moving as that thing is being forced down into their stomach.

After a few moments the monster releases it's victim pulls back that long tube from it's own mouth retracting out of the persons stomach. Some disgusting liquid dripping out of it.

The monster turns it's attention to me pouncing after me. I run. I feel more grossed out than frightened by the thought of thing going down my throat. I run with everything I've got but the monster is much faster than me. When I turn to look back the thing is gaining on me quickly with tremendous speed and power. There seems to be no possible way for me to outrun it. Instead when the monster pounces I lunge to the side trying to dodge. This works as when I doge to the side the monster misses me.

The chase continues through the mall with me continuously having to lunge away and dodge those pounces. With some relief I make it to the exit doors of the mall. But then dismay as I can see a deep pit in front of the exit door filled with rotating blades churning and digging construction like that is blocking the exit and that monster fast approaching from behind.

But by some miracle I'm able to safely traverse the pit unscathed by the churning blades and and out the exit to what seems like safety on the street outside that is bustling with activity.

That is the last thing a remember about it. Must have woken then. I didn't even recall the dream for a few minutes after waking. I was going over recall of some other dreams when the memory of this one came flooding back to me all of a sudden.

Lucid Dream # 29 Of 2022
Lucidity Trigger Unknown
No Reality Check Needed

Flying Around The House

An early dream and not much to describe really. I'm in an very large house and already lucid. I'm just doing a lot of flying around the place as if the house is a race course for flying. I have a little difficulty at first as being out of practice with it. But as things progress and I gain confidence in my ability the flying becomes easy and natural. There is a moment when I'm on my feet on the floor, I stretch arms straight out to my sides and lean backwards. I then use telekinesis on myself, forcefully levitating myself straight up to the ceiling and cling hanging upside down from the ceiling Spider-Man Style. Then begin crawling across the ceiling for a bit before waking up.

In a later dream I'm walking in the countryside believing myself to be near the cabin. I begin to think about how I used to get lucid on cabin trips nearly every time I went which was every week back then. I'm a bit nostalgic missing those days. I begin doing awareness work trying to stay focused on paying attention to whether or not I'm dreaming but looking around and listening to the music of the land and the feeling of the countryside. (Unfortunately forgetting to actually do a reality check.) And end up forgetting all about it even after seeing a lion and a bear. There had been some fenced in property with horses. I started approaching the fence and say hello to the horses when I notice the lion that is climbing through the fencing. This freaks me out and I make a run for a near by house for safety. Once reaching the house I then see that there is a large bear as well. But then wake.

Monday/November/7/2022

Nothing but work related stuff. Though I'm pretty sure that there was something else that I've forgotten because I forgot to take notes on it and just fell back to sleep.

There was some very low level lucidity when I became aware of a dreamsign but just continued on not letting full lucidity to catch on. I had been cleaning up a water spill on the floor and there just kept on being more to clean up. I was getting kind of annoyed that every time I turn around I see more water that I have missed. But then I become aware that the reason this is happening is because of it being a dream so it makes perfect sense then that I would keep finding more water. But for whatever reason I just kept on with the dream and forgot about it.

There was a moment worth noting when I hear some music playing and there is this old boombox style radio playing a cassette tape. I recognize the music as being from the metal band "Slayer" But then the boombox cassette tape player begins eating the tape and the tape gets all pulled out of the cassette and tangled up and I think it's ruined no longer playable. But someone takes the cassette and manages to wind it all back up properly into the cassette. But I have my doubts that it will ever play right again because I think that some of the tape was destroyed in a way which will cause it to just get caught in the player again and be pulled out, or otherwise not work/sound right when it gets to that section of the tape.

Saturday/November/5/2022

I slept about seven hours but was pretty well out with no recall most of the night no doubt because of being overly tired from little of sleep the previous night. But I eventually did have some vivid recall of a pretty long work related dream.

Maybe the most interesting thing to note about the dream was a conversation I had with an unknown dream character at one point about riding motocross bikes. The discussion revolved around previous experiences with crashes which began when the dream character mentioned a wipeout they had on their bike. And I described a couple of the worst ones that I had that actually happened in waking reality. I actually didn't remember that part of the dream upon first waking. It wasn't until I saw a photo of my bike and right away felt there was something about it in my dreams. Then that portion of the dream came flooding back and the conversation I had with the dream character about it.
