Step 1

In the morning after my morning shift, go down to the Secretary of State and get applications and fill them out and start submitting them.

If I can get a good job with the Sec'y of State or with the State of IL. then I will be a very happy man. Well, it will be 1 step out of many that will lead to a stability that will hopefully make life a lot easier.

You had me at hello

Well well well. What have I been up to you may ask? Working. Jesus H. I work too much and it is starting to wear me down. Not really feeling sick but just exhausted.

I'm still social though. You can find me out many nights. My spots usually are Browns then Mojos on Fridays and Saturdays, The Curve on Sundays, and The Lace on Mondays and Tuesdays. All late night of course because I'm working most days and evenings. It is my wind down time before bed.

I am starting soon, very soon, to look for employment with the State of Illinois. I finally got off of my extremely lazy rear end and requested my ISU transcript so that I can properly fill out an application with the State. What it boils down to is this... I need a job that pays well enough for me to live AND save money AND have great health insurance. It is hard to go anywhere in life if you are unable to do all three together.

I've got some fun time off coming up soon. I will be heading to Chicago to see my favorite band in the world perform for the 5th time. This will be my most for one particular band. Dave Matthews is a close second with 3 or 4 times but I cannot recall now because it has been eons since I have seen Dave. Anywho, I will be in Chicago on the weekend of February 9th-11th.

BEARS ARE IN THE SUPER BOWL! I cannot wait! I asked off Super Bowl Sunday like 2 weeks before they made it because I had faith that they would go all the way. Now they just need to win the Bowl.

I appologize for the lack of posting but when I don't get online for days at a time and when I do it is just a few minutes it is hard for me to put anything to text. I assume that if you really want to know what I am doing you can hunt me down at the places that I always am or just call me. My number is the easiest in the world....

Well, I need to get spiffy so that I can go chill with friends at the DH in a few minutes. Byebye for now.

White Castle and Me

I recently wrote a letter to White Castle corporate and suggested that they build a White Castle in Springfield Illinois. This was their response.

Dear Kyle:

Thank you for your recent suggestion directed to our corporate office that
we locate a White Castle restaurant in your area. We appreciate hearing
from customers who enjoy our products. We have noted your suggestion and
have forwarded it to our real estate department for consideration.

In immediate response to your inquiry, however, White Castle prides itself
on growing slowly. White Castle and all its subsidiaries are privately
owned and operated. The company does not franchise or offer stock
options, and finances its expansion solely through retained earnings. For
these reasons, White Castle tends to operate within the existing Midwest
and Northeast regions where all our support facilities (meat plants,
bakeries, etc.) are located. We believe in this business practice so we
can provide a stable company for the more than 12,000+ employees it
supports.

Due to these factors, as well as advertising efficiencies, we add only
approximately fifteen to twenty new restaurants every year to our existing
market areas. Based on our current expansion plans, it will be a few
years before we open another new market area. A list of our current
locations can be sent to you via conventional mail upon request.

Thank you again for your interest in White Castle and its products.

Sincerely,
Elizabeth Ingram
Director of Restaurant Operations
