Temporary Position #2

STANFORD UNIVERSITY
Office the Vice Provost and Dean of Research
Palo Alto, CA
10/06-10/31

And back for #2!

Since the temporary agencies I applied to in the city were not being so helpful, I had decided to apply with the temporary service at Stanford University. They loved all the extra BU activities I had done and were really helpful landing me this gig.

It's not the most glamorous job in the world but I do get paid pretty well. Officially, I am the Administrative Associate to the Vice Provost and Dean of Research. The office is pretty high up in the rankings of administrative offices (which will be great for connections).

In terms of my actual workload:

• Work Monday through Friday 8AM-5PM
• Perform general administrative tasks for the various staff members

The position technically lasts until October 31, but there might be a possibility of it lasting longer. I would definitely consider working this job for another month but I wouldn't take the full time position. The job is very basic and I would end up leaving it once I found a consulting job. Regardless, its a job and a paycheck.

Folsom Street Fair

Tis the season of festivals and fairs in San Francisco. I swear these past couple of weekends have been packed with them. This past weekend, for example, there was the Castro Street Fair (hot tranny messes parading the streets of Castro), Oktoberfest (drunks stumbling on the streets), and Lovefest (everyone dancing on Market Street).

The most memorable festival I have be

en to however would have to be the Folsom Street Fair. It was two weekends ago and the name gives ABSOLUTELY no justice to the actual events that occurred. It's the LARGEST LEATHER FESTIVAL IN THE WORLD. Naturally, San Francisco is home to such an event.

The fair spans six city blocks and is filled with tents featuring sex swings, flogging demonstrations, and the classic spanking over a person's knee. Any type of sexual domination you can think of was in full display.

The leather afficionados were not afraid to show their love for the fabric. I would say about 1 in every 4 people there donned some article of leather clothing (mostly chaps or some form of underwear). 

And if the people were a little hot, they would walk around completely nude. That's right....Completely naked walking the city streets. Before I got to the fair I had a "Penis Count" game going with my roommate to tally th

e number naked guys I saw. After 17 we both lost track.

Its pretty funny to think that some of these people that were naked (or close to be being naked) or that were involved in one of the "domination demonstrations" could be the city's lawyers or doctors or schoolteachers. Some of these people could be high profile in their industries but yet have some kinky sex fetish and take advantage of the once a year outlet to express it. 

Well it was an experience... Below is some of the photos I took at the fair.
