Return of the Retail Jockey!

Desperation, when it comes to me, is easy to recognize. This time it presented itself while anticipating two months with no job, sitting on my butt and getting paid unemployment.

So I swallowed my pride (not an easy thing to do. Didn’t know that did you? I can be very prideful) and went to see my old Manager Daryl at Michael’s.

I’m pretty sure by coming and asking for a job for the summer I made his entire year. I haven’t even finished at the daycare yet and they already have me scheduled for two shifts this weekend doing demos.

I’m back baby!

I’m nervous and excited. I didn’t leave on the best terms with one of the Managers, but it was Daryl who backed me up through all of that so I don’t think it’ll be a problem. The place has really changed and I won’t have to race to clean the store anymore. It’s only for six weeks so the likelihood of me going postal is very slim.

Most of all I know this job like the back of my hand so it’ll be easy, like riding a bike or disarming a nuclear device. It’s all how you look at it.

It’ll be great to have some money coming in over the summer and I’ll have my employee discount back! w00T!

Only eight days left of daycare. We went to Kinsmen Park today and rode the train and the merry-go-round, doesn’t get any better than that.
