That song was on the radio at work today. Not the Bowie version, but a cover by another band. It made me happy and I sang along. I'm listening to it now, no wait, now it's Kooks. =D
Work today was rubbish, same as always lately. Gordon's back from his holiday, that idiot arsehole. The rest of his family who their are alright: his brother Stephen, his sister Karen and his cousin Angela. It's just him who really gets on my nerves. But oh well, I don't let it get to me, I just do what I'm told and nobody can find fault in that. I found out today that a whole load of the full-time women staff are leaving to get till-operator jobs with Tesco. This makes my plan of quitting a little more complicated, because I'd be leaving the Cafe in the lurch. What I am thinking of doing though is speaking to Kyle next time he's in and telling him to either give me a full-time contract to replace someone who's leaving or else let me stay casual until I get a full-time job. It's been dawning on me lately how I'm being used there to cover all the incompetents' asses. I'm just so confuzzled about it all, I don't really care after all. =(
I finished work at 5 pm today and was so glad to get out. The way I feel about finishing work lately is almost like how I used to be with school, just staring at the clock in agony. I'm not so scared of getting another job, despite the hassle of getting know new people - I'm better at that now. I'd actually like it, because I really am sick of the Tesco cafe now. Although there's nothing I'd rather be doing really.
After work though I went to check my bank balance at the cashpoint outside. The payslips for this month seem to have been lost in the post, and I really wanted to know how much I have before I started booking things this week. OMGZ!!1 =O I actually gasped when I saw my balance. I knew it'd be fairly high from all the shifts I've been doing, but it's so high! And this is after tax! I felt so excited about my new found weath I withdrew £20 just to keep in my wallet, haha. Of course when my payslip comes in I'll have to take a third off to give to mother for living here. But I'm looking into alternative arrangements. I am no longer worried about my expenditure. =)
I think I'm going to head off now. Shall write in my secret diary (with pretty pink flowers and tiny, adorable padlock) about ominous sounding Other Things for awhile. But nobody needs to see it because just writing makes me feel better. Then I might go for a bath before reading in bed. I feel so happy despite my tiredness, I don't know how I'll make it through the next week. =P
