 On campus. My busiest day of the week is today, and will not end until friday. Here is how my schedule normally looks during the week:

Monday:
Slave work for Target 6am - 2:45ishpm

Tuesday:
Campus / Class 9:00am - 3:00pm
Retail Hell (Target) 3:30pm - midnight

Wednesday:
Selling my soul to Target 8am - 4:30pm

Thursday:
Class 9am - 9pm

Friday:
Target 8:00am-4:30pm

Saturday:
It's a rotation between (6am-2:30pm, off, or 2:30-midnight) depending on what weekend of the month it is.

In my free time, I add in the gym, all my homework, the little social life I have for my friends, paying my bills, my dietician appointments, and if i am ever lucky, once in a while I get to go out to dinner. I hardly even see my roommates. My life right now is so wrapped up in work and trying to make it for myself when I graduate.

Now in less than 4 days, I will be 21 years of age. I plan on a weekend of craziness, and alcohol will probably attend. Mom is coming up friday after work, friday night is citywalk and margaritaville (at midnight), saturday (my birthday) is the football game, PLUS going downtown, Sunday Rose is coming up to visit and we are going to go shopping for the baby, and Monday, my dad is coming up to visit. Thank god, I start my lovely 9 days of vacation this friday. I will be off of work from 9/15-9/23. So if anyone wants to utilize my free time, call my cell, get ahold of me.

The workaholic in me (on the flip side) is antsy about being gone this long. I told Jerry (my boss) that if they are severely short staffed, just call me and I may come in for a few hours (knowing me, by tuesday of next week, I am going to be bored out of my ever-loving mind). So as my friends, if I even consider walking into work. Stop me. Run me over with your car. Pinch me, or even break my legs with a baseball bat. Just saying.......

On the subject of work, I nearly had a screaming match with my boss in the middle of my department yesterday. All the teamleaders in our area decided to approach him because of some problematic issues going on with team members, no one would speak up, so I said something. In my attempt to be pacifist-like (even a word?), my boss became a little hostile towards us, shooting everything I said down, so that is when I lost my patience and flat out told him how I really felt. The other person who was there with me, just stood there, mildly bewildered. I am not going to be treated like I am insignificant when they just recently held a conversation with the team leaders telling us to be more proactive and speak up more. This is why we don't. So now as a result of this, I have to be the one today when I go into work, and give my entire team tonight the "get on the band wagon or you will have to be written up and documented" speech. Now, I don't speak infront of groups of people well. I have had issues with my team when I have tried to lay down the law previously. So tonight should make for a story. I am just not sure how to go about it.

I have to run to class. more on this later, because I have to do my hw that i never did.
