Work Life, Personal Life
I've had mixed feelings about work lately. I was formally voted onto the team last store meeting which gives me new security and benefits but our already understaffed department lost two more team members just this past week due to their repeated tardiness. While I respect Whole Foods for holding everyone to the same standards I am nonetheless disappointed that I will no longer be working with two fine knowledgeable and amiable men. I worked alongside David nightly as he was my night manager. I learned a lot about our products from him and was impressed by his unfailing energy and easygoing personality. I feel sorry for him because he is a new father and his unemployment will affect his whole family. Paul was about my age and was not only a pleasure to work with but he was also a pleasure to look at. He was probably (not just because I thought he was hot) my favorite coworker. What is left of our team will have to pick up the slack.
The dynamic of my living situation continues to evolve and complicate. Essentially five people are living in my house currently. There are Josh, Jaremii and me (the ones who are actually paying rent) and there are Anthony and Schnitzle (Jaremii's friends who literally stay at our place five or six nights a week) and Jo-Jo, the guy who pays rent but I haven't even met yet.
Schnitzle is a nice guy but he is sort of nuts. He has a crush on me and I'm not interested in him. He has tried to ask me out on dates and I've tried to let him down nicely. I'm not good at firmly rejecting people. It is kind of awkward and at times annoying because he spends at least as much time at my house as I do. When I wake up and walk to the kitchen he gets up from his mattress in the living room and looks at me longingly. How the hell am I supposed to deal with a situation like this?
I had a conversation with Thomas the other day about how I don't want to hook up with him again. It wasn't easy. I still have confused and mixed feelings about him. When I told him he seemed hurt but he restrained himself. I don't get him at all. I'm not sure I even want to understand him anymore. He lives next door though so it's not like I'll be able to successfully avoid him.
I recently met a guy named Martin who I'm sort of interested in. More about him later.
