Tales of a Rough Life Part III
So another update into the fiasco I call my life...
So the job count is now up to 2...that's right 2 Jobs! I work days on Tuesday/Wed/Thurs, and possibly a fourth day in the future selling very VERY high end merchandise. It's a VERY hard sell right now, especially in this economy, but I'm still getting my feet wet and getting comfortable in the environment.
Starting next week I'll be working nights at a regular department store, but I should be able to pick up some good hours and hopefully a promotion soon enough.
I'm starting to doubt my ability to handle this situation though, I mean deep down I know I WILL do what I MUST do to have a good life for my sister and I, but I don't know how my emotions and body will handle having two jobs. I will at very least be working 15 hours straight 3- 4 days in a row, and I don't care who you are but that's tough.
Not to mention I worry, that the money I make with both jobs won't be enough for me and my sister, especially with the holidays coming up. I know I know everyone says Christmas isn't about the presents, but my sister deserves presents. She deserves to have a happy christmas...So I stress and worry I won't be able to give her the things she wants...
On the other hand, we might be moving into a half way decent apartment in due time, so maybe...just maybe...things are looking up for now...
For some weird reason, my father and stepmother have become very generous to us and are willing to help us in any way we need, and although I hate having them help me, I have no other choice. I'm not sure of their alterior motives yet, but maybe, just maybe...who knows..I don't know....
