so i just had a talk with my boss to clue him in on everything that's going on in my life, and how i'm quitting school, etc. And how me and Michael are getting an apartment in October. I just didn't want him to be surprised when I finally tell him I have to get another job that's full time and where i'm making more money.
We had this long conversation about it and about how he didn't go to college and he makes plenty of money, so for me not to be worried or feel like a failure. THEN...he tells me he can offer me a management position where I would be in charge of the back room/loss prevention/inventory stuff. And I'll be making $10.00 an hour, full time, and have health benefits and a 401K plan. And I almost cried. Not saying I want to be working at Buckle for the rest of my life...but for right now, I need to be saving up money, and $10 an hour would be a good start. Plus, it'll look really good on a resume if I have experience in a management position where I also deal with inventory. I've been working there almost 2 years, so I guess he feels like I deserve it. Plus, I know Chase has gone through hard times when he was broke a lot, it's not that way now, but he has a heart and is willing to help me out when he sees I'm in need. :)
I couldn't be any happier right now. God has truly been blessing me lately, and I am thankful for it all. I honestly wasn't expecting anything like that to happen today. I will be making as much as my sister, and she's 29. and more than my mom, and she's 50. Things are definitely looking up, and soon, my stress level will have gone down to almost nothing.
Just thought I'd let everyone know the good news ;)
