Moving Up A Little
I am proud to state that I now have a new job. And it's a step up from what I've done in the past. I'm a tax preparer now. Which means I don't have to stand at a cash register all day.
Of course, it also means I need to dress proffesionally, which is probably going to require me to aquire some more blouses....I have nice skirts, and I have a blazer. I have a few pairs of khakis, and decent shoes. I don't have quite enough blouses, and I need to get more trouser socks and/or stockings. Probably both. Today I aquired (for less than $7) a decent skirt-and-blazer set in a pretty green. There's a great consignment shop in the same plaza as the tax office where I work. I explored this while waiting for my brother to come pick me up.
Must make sure laundry gets done tomorrow--this will help my clothing issue. I ment to do it today, but there's too much for me to carry easily and I couldn't get at baskets enough to sort it all.
So, today I started my job. Tomorrow I'm gonna hang out in the coffee shop for a while (get some breakfast and read my book) before starting work. Worked pretty well for an hour today, so it should work just fine for a couple hours tomorrow.
Oh yeah. I still have an interview with Borders tomorrow afternoon. Yes I'm gonna try to get that job too. Or maybe one of the other ones I applied for. Why? Because I'm currently part-time and I kinda need full-time. Which I'm not likely to get until peak, so I need more work in order to make enough money to get by. I'll find something. And I'll find a way to not only get by, but to get ahead.
So. I guess we'll see how things go, right?
