"With the slightest disturbance, the dream's going to collapse."
Have a slightly random Inception quote. The one I was going to use was a little too long.
I start my new job on Saturday. Not quite sure how I'm going to get there yet but I'm speaking to the manager of the store on Thursday and I should have a better idea then. My current manager wasn't in the least bit pissed or annoyed that I'd accepted the job without letting him know and the assistant manager reckons if I hadn't have accepted the position then he would have been. It makes sense really because if I hadn't have said yes then I would just be stuck in the same position for who knows how long and not progressed my career. Okay it isn't my chosen career but there you go, things don't always work out how you want or expect them to.
I did find it quite entertaining/annoying that Paul (one of the part-timers) seems to think that he stands a good chance of getting my hours/position when I leave. This guy is so unreliable that we never know when or if he will turn up for work. He calls in well after his start times to say he is going to be late or not coming in at all and some of his reasons are stupid or they change depending on who he talks to. He has also done a pretty good job of pissing of most of the other staff in the last couple of weeks by basically demanding that the manager give him all the overtime instead of sharing it out between a few of the part-timers because he needs it. Guess what so do the others and at least they show up when they are supposed to and don't whine and complain about everything. I swear this guy has no idea what we all think of him or that he really isn't that good at his job. I could rant about him forever but what good would that do.
I am going to miss most of the staff when I leave, sure I will see them every now and then as I will probably be expected to pick up and drop stuff off between the stores seeing as I live close to one and work at another. It happens to any staff member that has that sort of situation. There are a few that I will miss more than others Kev, Glen, Robbie, Tom and Luke will definitely be missed. Then there are some that I won't miss Paul and Ross are the only two I can think of that I won't miss at all. Of course I will miss working with clez more than anything but she's still my sister and we still live under the same roof.
I'm going to be getting my own car as soon as possible so that transport won't be an issue but until then its going to take some serious planning in advance so that I don't end up late to work or anything like that. I also need to make sure I get my butt in to gear and actually do some sort of exercise seeing as I won't be riding my bike to work now. I'm already terrible at keeping myself active. I really need to change that.
I didn't really mean to waffle on like I did and maybe I haven't but it feels like it. I'm sure I had more to say but for the life of me I can't remember what it was. I'm sure if it was important it will come back to me.
