2/17-2/26 A WEEK OF CHANGE
So not that the breast cancer walk and the future questioning weren't enough, and I have to say, as far as the Orlando thing goes, thank you to everyone who left me those words of encouragement, especially to Jess, because, you're there, and that really helped me out to know that I am not, nor will be in this alone, and to let you know, neither are you. :)
Anyways, I had my review at work today. I should be happy about getting a raise but, I'm not. With all that I do, and with as much as I genuinely feel I bring to the table there, I am definitely not being compensated for it. I got my raise today, fifty four cents. My grand total is now $9.55 an hour. I'm sorry, but that is unacceptable.
So I just tweaked my resume and I think I might try my hand at being a home health aid. I mean, I like old folks, I have the skills, and frankly, the schedule works out very well for me and what I need in a job. I was acutally looking on craigslist and found a website and they make between 11 and 15 bucks an hour. Its flexible, good for the evening, and during the day since my avalibility fluctuates depending on the day. So I guess we'll see.
I already told my manager that sorry, but I'll have to find a new job. I'm not on the Innovision pay scale, I'm still stuck on the Visionworks one. And $9.55 is not enough for me to be selling glasses on top of every other damn thing I do there.
This is why I love butterflies and have 2 tattooed on me. Life is nothing more than change. You get used to being something and hopefully life changes into something better, like a butterfly. I myself am constantly changing, and this time, its not into a moth.
