I guess I don't always have bad luck. :) Even though I always think so. =( I got a job today! And I went and told Tim about it.. I was glad to hear him say that it helps them alot though. :) I'm thankful he kept me in even though they didn't really have the hours to fit me in. So where did I get a job at? I got a job at Butler Toyota/Volkswagen! :D I am to be a receptionist/cashier. ;) Meaning.. I get to sit at a desk. :D Finally! I've been looking for something alot like that. :) I was getting tired of these cashier jobs where all I do is stand up in once place all day long. I never saw the point in that. Why should I stand up when sitting down would enable me to work longer hours without breaks? I never understood that. I can understand that when you are actually having to get out on the floor and sale the merchandise, or stock, but when all you do is stand by the register.. why not sit down? That is something I always wonder about. If I were a manager I would allow my cashier to sit down, as long as it never hampered the ability to do the job correctly. :D At least I won't have to worry about that anymore! I'm so glad! The job starts this week maybe, at least the training. If not, then the official date will be Monday. :) I hope I get to go in sooner, then I can get used to the hours and duties I will be expected to fill.
That always seems to be my luck. I was getting crappy hours at Fuddruckers, between 2 and 4 hours a week. I went applying at other jobs and was running out of hope. Then I decided to walk all the way down to Staples. I put in the application, Harvey and Tim interviewed me, and then they hired me on the spot. Now, that was a great job and I loved it and everyone there. I will really miss everyone. :( Well, back on topic. They gave me great hours for a month and a half. Nearly worked me to death. Then the back to school season was over and they cut my hours back, first to about 15 hours, then to 0, and back to 5. Sometimes 10 hours. This week I had 0 hours, but next week I might have had 15, but I can't pay my insurrance and gas with that. So.. today as I was looking for jobs online, Butler Toyota called me, and offered me a job. :D I just hope it perm and not temp. I need more hours! I will be working Monday through Friday 5pm to 8pm, and Saturday from 8:30am to 5:30pm. :D 23 hours a week! So I am very happy.. I have to go in tomorrow for a drug test, and turn in my shirt at Staples. :) So wish me luck.
Now, I have papers to fill out, an insurance company to call, and homework to do. Though this is technically my homework as well. XD Bye bye.
