HOOOOOLY
Oops, I fell behind in this thing again! My bad. :P
Anywho... the most obvious think to write about would be my getting bumped. So I chose the store at Bathurst and Sheppard because not only was it the closest store I had the option of going to (the other two were in Oakville and Barrie.... yeah, not happening) I figured it's really close to the area that I want to move to - so in the long run, it works out better.
So I get to the store, and it's WONDERFUL. We work in the basement, it's very quiet and chill, and nowhere near as busy as College Park. Everyone seems nice, no one seems overly stressed, etc.
So I'm just getting settled in when on my 4th shift, I get called into the office: AND GUESS WHAT!? I'm getting bumped again! But this time, my only options are those two stores so guess what? Back to part-time and back onto the re-call list for me.
I just can't get a break, can I? And this was JUST after I risked expressing how much better everything was going and how happy I was at that position. Figures. I really need to learn to just not say anything - it always backfires on me.
The only good thing about getting bumped back down to part-time is that I can chose any store I want. So I've chosen to go back to Front Street. It's not College Park, I know everyone, I know how things work down there, and I know I'll get my 24 hours a week plus + 7 on Sunday if I want it. And another plus about it is that I can book off any time I want.... so for the next while I won't have any problems making it out of town for a while and shit. Gotta find some silver lining, right?
Other than that not much else is going on. I'm totally stoked for the next few weeks. For the 14th-16th Chris suggested we go up to his cottage... which would fucking ROCK. 21-23 is Niagara Falls! SOOO EXCITED! And thennnn, the 29th is Halloween Party at Brad & Jen's place! I'm going as Princess Peach. ;)
Awwww yea! Hahahaha. I haven't decided if I'm going with a blonde wig or not though. :P
This weekend I have my yearly Stewards' conference. Should be fun. I'm not in any mood for a big party though haha. So I'm just going to go for dinner, have a few drinks and then go relax in my hotel room.
