You'll be happy to learn that my attitude has ticked up since my previous entry. Also, I am way more sober than how it sounds like I was with that last entry. I barely remember writing that one. But, in response to my previous pessimistic and pitiful predicament, I feel much better. I feel prepared to deal with Life again, for the most part.
First off, I got a promotion at Scholastic Book Fairs. As of March 17, I was employed there for five years. And in early May, I was bumped up to the second shift lead. That's one step below a supervisor. Our new second supervisor kind of sucks because he was only with us for a month before the summer season kicked in. Therefore, he didn't have much opportunity to learn peoples' names and learn who the lazy trouble-makers are. Now, all of the Scholastic full-timers are combined into first shift while the part-timers have been laid off until late August or early September.
It's so strange to wake up while the Sun is still rising. I prefer to wake up when the morning is already over. Waking up with the rest of the world is quite strange. I think I like it because the notion of having the rest of the day to myself is quite alluring. I almost want to permanently change my shift over to day shift, but it still majorly sucks getting up this early. Obviously, I can do it because I have only been late once or twice. I'm surprising myself with how easily I wake up when my alarm goes off at 0545 hours. Bizarrely, I am the chipper one who greets everyone with an admittedly annoying, "Good morning!" I get the weirdest looks. I don't consider myself a morning person. But, maybe I am a multi-capable person.
This was just to let you know that I am still alive. Then again, I'm not exactly sure who "you" are. It's safe to assume that I no longer have any readers. It's been half a year since my last update. Plus, I only have about seven or eight readers at any given time. Too bad. Either way, I'll stop by and write every now and again. See you again soon.
I wish I could see two hours into the future.-
