Working at the Home Depot.

Mar 02, 2005 14:13

Well, it has been three days since I started my job at The Home Depot. Boy it is nothing like I expected it to be. I feel like I am a lost little puppy wondering around the store. Everyone else seems to know what they are supposed to be doing, while me I am lost and confused.

The only thing that I kept thinking on my first day of work was how much I missed my old job at the Library. I don't mind the fact that I have to help people at the store. That doesn't bother me. I like that part. The part that I hate is that I have no clue what the hell that I am supposed to be doing. So I wonder around my little area that I work and try to look busy so that the people on the secutity cameras don't think that I am goofing off. Plus add in the fact that my feet are killing me by the time that I get home.

I know that I shouldn't be complaining. But, I don't really like working at Home Depot. I have to stay though because the pay is good, the people that I work with are friendly and I get benefits. Plus they have a program where Home Depot will help pay for college classes. These reasons are the only reasons I have not already quit after three days of working there.

::sigh:: I bet that right now I sound like a winey cry baby. I know that I should suck it up and go on. I should be happy that I have a job, because my credit card bill is huge. This is why I haven't quit yet. I need to keep this job. I have to keep it. Sometimes, I wish I hadn't told the people at Barrow County that I wasn't interested in going for a job interview. The job as a clerk probably would have been just the job that I needed. I am still kicking myself for telling them that.

There is still a little hope for me. I applied at Gwinnett County for a couple of clerk jobs. Maybe they will call me up and I can get a job with them. It would be better than working at Home Depot on my feet all day long.
