productivity=working

well. i have a full-time job. i start officially on monday. never did hear back about the NHK job. tis a shame. so anyways, i have quit the english teaching. (ended up liking that place way more than i expected, it was a little sad to leave) i am working at the production company full time. 8:30-6 pm with an hour for lunch. $2,400/month. i am office manager/production assistant/editorial apprentice. however, my most primary duty is answering the fone, and keeping the food stocked.

here are the things i like about the job in list form:
-everyone working there is fun and nice
-it's casual work environment, no need for khakis and button down shirts
-i'm learning new things every day
-it's a clean yet non-sterile work environment
-i have decent hours for a living wage

things i don't like:
-it's not so close to the home (approx 45 mins by bus+bike)
-they want me to buy a car (for the grocery shopping/errands/and what foolish fool doesn't own a car in la anyways)

i don't have some huge opposition to driving a car. but. i really don't want one. for the following reasons:
-gas money
-insurance money
-i can't see @ night
-money to buy the car itself
-parking
-traffic

last week i was hit by a car while riding a bike. this sucked to the extreme, but it really didnt change my mind about not wanting/wanting a car. nor did it change my mind about bike commuting.
