so far my grades aren't that bad, less the F in accounting and the WF in business law. the F in accounting i saw coming, and i dont care. the WF is because i didn't know we had to write a research paper. i found out about it the week AFTER it was due, and when i asked the professor what was going on, was the date right? all he said was "turn in a paper." the next thing i knew, i was dropped from the class. fuck that shit, that's what i say.
i got a C in intro to business, and a B in composition. i'm still waiting on my algebra grade. i think the professor said i got a 97 on the final, and an A in the class, but i think she meant my midterm, because i didn't study for the final at all, and i left one or two questions blank, so... there's no way i got a 97. but i'm not worried, because even if i get a 43 on the exam, i still have a C in the class.
the job in boca raton is not happening. he said he would want to meet me before offering me a job, so i told him about the loans and waiting and no money and all that shit, and he never replied. BUT i have an interview at target on monday that i'm probably not going to go to, because i'm going to britton cinemas today to meet the manager and probably start working. i know the owner of that theater, he's actually the guy who got me promoted at seminole 8. he told me he needed an assistant manager, and called me up and offered me the job. he told me to come in today, meet the GM and look around, and it's my job to turn down if i dont want it. but i do want it. i do. because i'm not done managing at a theater yet. i only got in a couple months before it closed, and even then i was working my ass off to fix a whole bunch of shit that should've been taken care of, and any and all ideas i had were tossed to the side.
i'm excited for this job because tony (the owner) tells me that the other assistant manager, melissa, is a lot like me, and is headstrong when it comes to getting things done right. good. and the GM, ken, works hard to make sure the business is running properly, and will give me running room to do whatever i have to do, which means he'll probably teach me something new when i ask him to, as opposed to saying "you'll never need to know that" or letting me find out on my own. run-on sentence, i know, but deal with it. i'm really excited. the way tony's described it, i'll be able to get a lot more work done and actually have a chance in helping it reach it's full potential, because i'll have a supportive management staff to work with. AND tony said that the staff there isn't as close-knit, which is good, because that means LESS DRAMA. fabulous.
today is a good day. new job. my paycheck gets here today. SPIDERMAN 3. very good day.
