Why, hello there! God, it's been what..FOREVER since I posted in here? What can I say, I've been..distracted?
Well, I got a boyfriend, and roughly six months later, I broke up with him. I don't know why, but just seems like I cannot keep boyfriends past six months. It really does not help that a big majority of my boyfriends lived with me. I know that did not help in the least bit. The two boyfriends who did not live with me: Paul, and that was just a quick high school thing. And Joe, who...well, cheated on me. And if it's one thing I absolutely cannot stand, is cheating. Why? Just..why?!?!?!??!?!
Aaaanyways, I am just babbling, so..warning, I may go off on a random tangent. So I broke up with Dennis. He's still living here temporarily until he can move all of his stuff. Some days he sleeps here, other days he sleeps at other friends houses. Whatever, doesn't bother me. Though the first couple of days were really rough, even though I knew that it would not work. I was lonely, and whimpery, and woe is meeeeee-...ey...But true to my form, I got over it. I seriously thought about taking him back a couple of times, and thankfully my brain has some sense left in it because as I was crying, I thought to myself "I know if I take him back, I will have a week of awesomeness, and everything will fall back into how it was before." Where was it before? I was happy yet miserable at the same time. I was happy that I had someone, but miserable because I couldn't have feelings for him. I tried, and failed. Can't force love, ya know? But I am back to myself. I can live without someone in my life. Sure I am talking to another guy but really, I don't need to. It just kind of happened?
So that was my love life in a nut-shell. My work life has been just getting more and more hectic as the years go on. Slowly but surely I am moving up in the McWorld. I did my coursework for ASM, and Serena and Erin are molding me into a Salaried Manager, assistant manager, whatever the hell you want to call it. I am not actually in that position, because one is not available yet, but if one does come up, I am in the running for it. I may get it, I may not. It all depends on..well, everything I guess. I now make crazy money, for a McWorker ($11.05/hr) and when I heard about my raise, my mouth just dropped. Last year when I got my raise, Gwen told me that I blew past the pay ceiling but they still gave me a raise because I had improved that much. I was shell-shocked when they gave me another $0.25 raise. (Sadly in the McWorld, that much is awesome!). However Serena did mention that since I am making $11 an hour, I am expected to ACT like it. Damn responsibility. Curse you! Cuuuuurse you! But yeah, responsibility. The adult side of me is going "Sigh, fine, I'll do it" cause you know, I have to. I have taken on doing inventory-weekly and monthly, doing schedules (ewww) and just...running the store. Though running the store is a normal manager job, so that's the easy part.
We had a surprise, but we knew it would happen, visit the other day. We expected it to happen, we just didn't know when it was going to happen. It's called an S.O.R. , or short operations review. They come in and grade us on everything. The other manager who was supposed to be running the shift, panicked and threw me onto shift, and boy..that sucked. I have a feeling I am going to be reamed out for that come the next little meeting that Serena, Erin, and I have (the "Salaried managers" meeting, in which I am included in now.) But, long story short, we failed the visit. Erin obviously was pissed that day, but today she seemed fine. Just kind of have to take it in, move on, and learn from the experience. It just sucks, because we've always prided ourselves on being one of the best stores in Harry's group and we failed our S.O.R. Well there goes us wiping our asses on our pride. But like I said, move on and learn from the experience. ....Damn when the hell did I grow up?!
Well anyways, I want to write down more, but I got up and actually put clothes on (for those of you who needed to know) and everything just disappeared into my brain. I have lots to talk about, but...it's just not coming out.
Hopefully I can write in here more often.
So...night night everyone! (the three of you who read this)
