Well, my last entry was about maybe being fired. I found out today that I am not. Well, I technically was for 4 days, but I look at it as a free 4 day weekend. I got to a point where I truly didn't care one way or another, and all along in fact was kinda looking forward to it because I would have free time, I would get to do what I want, I potentially would not hate my job, and a number of other things. But in the end, since I do have the job back, the benefits are, I don't have to put on a resume or application that I was fired, rather I can put that it was on my terms, I know that I make enough money at UPS to cover my expenses, and I plan to leave at the end of the school year or summer, and possibly even during next semester. THe key is I will get 4000 tuition reimbursement, so that's cool.

It was really cool though, cause regardless of whether I wanted the job back or now, every part time supervisor was rallying around me, cause they knew that it was total bullshit why I was fired. Today, knowing that it would be the deciding day, several supervisors told me that if I hadn't been here today, they were going to leave, and one in particular, a guy who's been there for about 20 years, called to make sure I was there before he left for work, because he would not have come in until I was back, or all was forgiven if I decided not to come back. Anyway, it made me feel good knowing that, cause even though I was hired back, I still would have felt untrusted, but the fact that everyone recognized how horribly wrong it was, makes me realize more solidly that I was not at fault.
