Most Friday's, I'll find myself going off to see a movie, or staying home doing nothing (don't have a job), well today was different, as I helped a friend at the Convention Center in Ontario (for the BIC General Conference. As far as what I was helping out with, it was setup (which was first the unloading of two trucks), topped off with a trip to Jack in the Box. We didn't actually eat there (had to get back to help some more), so we finished eating in the the truck.
Upon getting back, the sound/technical crew no longer needed our help, so we helped in other areas within the Convention Center. The type of help ranged from putting slips in bags (which each attendant received), putting chairs in various rooms, carrying other equipment to various rooms, and so on. We got there at 7ish this morning, and stayed until noon, of which the last hour or so involved mostly sitting around.
The rest of the day involved a meeting with a fellow church member that I go to at Sams Club, where we got 20 cases of water for the Conference, followed up with lunch at McDonald's. After eating there, we made the delivery, then I hung out at my friends house (while he cleaned).
We did go back for the night conference in the main room, which was nice (albeit warm, as there was no AC). It was a nice time of worship really.
All in all, I had a nice day. Then I got home tonight, and once again had to hear about the complaining my dad did. It was rather upsetting. Found out from my brother that I don't care about my dad, because I was off helping in out with something he doesn't believe in. He doesn't believe in religion, and I do. Turns out he was complaining all day while I was out. It just sucks knowing there's nothing I can do about it (don't have a job), so I can't move out right now.
