i’m SO bored. bored enough that i texted all the people i know who are in town (which is a small percentage right now) and invited them all out dancing. however, nobody wants to go, except maybe the girl that has a crush on me that i do not like back. so that doesn’t sound like as much fun. prolly i’ll just stay home and watch bad movies.
i don’t know how to not be bored with my life. i’m bored even while doing things other people find entertaining. i think something is wrong with me. i feel like i need a hobby, or to start volunteering somewhere or something. but it all sounds boring.
my one solution is to get trained as a waitress at our restaurant, to mix things up a bit. my first training shift is next sunday, so hopefully it goes well. i don’t want to stop delivering, but a change will be nice a couple days a week.
i worked four hours tonight, took eight deliveries, got $15.50 reimbursement and $39.64 in tips.
equalling: $6.89 a delivery and $21.52 an hour before taxes or gas.
i’m not sure how to figure out an equation for my hourly rate after taxes. i’ll have to work on that.

Wages + Tips + Mileage Reimbursement – Cost of gas = Take Home w/o Tax
12%(Wages + Tips + Mileage Reimbursement – (Difference between Mileage Reimbursement and Standard Federal Reimbursement Rate of .585 per mile)) = Taxes
Take Home w/o Tax – Taxes = Effective Pay
Effective Pay / Hours Worked = Dollars Per Hour
is what I use.
