So, I applied for the "2-7" position at my work. Which would have made me a Supervisor... hooray.
Seven individuals from my store applied for the position: Patrick, Joyce, Rachel, Jen, Ashley, Kathleen and myself. I, was not choosen. Joyce was chosen, and she was one of the three other individuals whom I'd preferred to take the position over me. None the less, it still sucks a huge lug nut. I'm also scheduled in Customer Service five out of five days this week. May not nessecarily be in there the whole day, but none the less, I am still in the cave. Not so bad, as I prefer the Service Desk as opposed to the front, BUT I do not get paid what I should be for them having me do what I do.... nor do I remember to do my department transfers... which I just realized right now.... GOOD! Let them go over budget then. =D
I had my interview for my position a week or two ago... and then last Tuesday "Lew" (our new personal manager) pulled me into his office to tell me that I did not get the position. Gave me the same pep talk he gave Rachel, which I find humerous. They really do have little "anti-disgruntled employee" comments that work IF the employees don't talk with each other... but, we do.
I've been beat into calling some temp agencies dealing with "Human Resources" on Thursday... wonder how well that'll go. Hope for somethin' worth my while.... 7.75 just doesn't cut it anymore. I was perfectly fine with my shitty wage when I first started, but that's cause I was desperate. =D
Sad part is, I don't really want to leave my store. I like the people I work with. Maureen, Patrick, Tiffany, Rachel, Maja, Julia, Erin, Melinda, Melissa (who just left ; ; ), Sarah and most everyone else with are a swell bunch. Of course, of all. I'd miss Mary. Mary rocks.... hard core.... like harder than rock hard. She's so confrontational, and says it how she sees it... it's quite wonderful.
As for "me". I do, okay. I get by my day to day misery with sleep, WoW, FFX and PoP.. and occassionally some ROSE.
Still obsessed with Patrick R. Can't really seem to stop thinkin' about him... even though I know it's a lost cause. The purest form of massochism, eh?
Hard to update at 4 am with little sleep and havin' to wake up for work in 2 hours. =D
Dunno what to do really.... I'll just sit and work my life away like 99.9% of people .... I could live with that ... I guess.
