Bye bye Whole Foods, it was nice knowing you
My boss called me today which I wasn't expecting for at least another week. He said that I didn't get voted on. In other words, I will no longer be working at Whole Foods. He said it was because I am only available for a few months out of the year and that if I came back at Christmas, I would basically have to re-train, which I think is not true since I finished my training and know how to do my job. I am disappointed, mainly because everybody talked as though I was definitely coming back and that got my hopes up. I can understand where Bryan is coming from. I mean, I am only available 3 or 4 months of the year and they need someone all the time. I will miss my job. I worked with awesome people, I had great benefits, and it was an awesome job. He said I could re-apply later or apply for a position in Jackson if a WFM is ever built here.
I talked to my parents about it. My Dad didn't really help. I think he is more disappointed than I am. Mom had the same view point I did (that it makes since not to keep me on b/c I am limited in availability). Then I talked to my grandpa who made me feel better the most. Among other things, he said that being a student comes first. In a way, I am glad I am not tied down to a job because I am hoping to get an internship next summer and maybe travel. An internship is more important right now because I need to have at least one under my belt in order to graduate.
Yes, I'm disappointed. I think the more I think about it, the more sad I become. Hopefully next summer will be as fun as this summer was.
P.S. Sorry Rusty, but I no longer have the discount. I'm most disappointed about that.
