Changes
My parents bought HP Notebooks (laptops) for both my brother and I as Christmas presents (more to come as they say). I don't think I've ever gotten something that big for anything (holidays, birthdays, etc.). I'm a little surprised to say the least, and it'll certainly help with classes.
Speaking of which, my major was (for some strange reason) Music Performance/Music Education. I never put that on any of my applications... I suppose it just carried over from the Perkinston mistake. I'm SO glad to now pursue an associates in Criminal Justice. xD SO HAPPY!! Apparently there's two different types and naturally I've selected the academic version. I'm still taking all the martial arts, ballistics, and criminology courses alongside it, so I won't be logged down with just work. And that brings me to considering re-enrolling in a Tae-Kwon Doe (or whatever else they offer) dojo around here somewhere.
And that brings me to reconsider my job. I know we'll be getting a $1,000 bonus check in Jan/Feb and I should go ahead and wait until then. But it's really wearing on me... the verbal abuse I'm getting from this new associate in my department. She's incredibly old (seriously, she doesn't need to be working), at least eight-five years old and she's beyond rude. I know I shouldn't listen to her and I should be satisfied with knowing what work I do and that I do it correctly and efficiently, but just hearing her words tears me down. I'm a Words of Affirmation person (based the on the Love Languages) and just hearing it messes me up for an entire month and so on. She's very open on her prejudice of certain people we work with and I hate that!! Who is she, a barely two-week temporary associate, to say that I, a nine-month part-timer, and some of my other associates (who have worked there for years) are not doing our jobs correctly?? I don't know how to go about reporting her for all her statements of racial discrimination (I'd really like to know how she got past orientation, probably put on a good show -__-) and cruel remarks of everyone else not doing their work except for her (when it's actually the other way around). No business can afford firing anyone right now -- we need the employees, no matter the cost. I pray they can make an exception here... I've been holding back so much just so I won't explode on her. I'm not sure how much more I can take.
Anyway... I've been looking for alternate sources of employment - Movie Gallery, other clothes stores (since that is where I'm coming from), and I think I'll go ahead and try RadioShack again. I mean, if Stephen got in, then I should be hired in seconds. ;D Haha... I'm just kidding... sorta. Lol. I can do sales - very, very well. Gr... I just don't know yet. I should really be focusing on my make-up test tomorrow morning and my MRI follow-up appointment. I'll finally find out what's been going on with/in my head. Hm... that's looks funny.
Will my weakness for an hour make me suffer for a lifetime?
Is there anyway to be made whole again?
(from an old entry) The bridge has already been burned... you lost your chance. ...and I'm sorry for that.
The bridge has already been burned... I lost my chance. ...is it too late to start over?
And I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but that's it for now. I got to go review... perhaps watch a sad movie to just cry... that's something I'm lacking. I swear I've got an emotional disorder. -____-
