Good Golly Miss Molly
It's about 2:19 am. and I am wide awake as per usual. ::thinks about the intro to the song "Breathe" by Anna Nalick:: lol, but nobody's callin' me. Anyhow, I was just sitting, more like laying, on my sofa watching stupid MTV shows like Tila Tequila's Shot at Love II and The Real World, and now some show that I don't even know what the name is. I don't have anything in particular to write about tonight, but I figured I'd hop on here since I haven't been on in quite some time, and just ramble about shit thats goin' on in my life. As if anyone cared :oP
Things at work are perpetually crazy. I don't work 2-close anymore, but have shifted back an hour to 1-9pm. Thankfully this schedule is more suited to my liking, as I have a definitive time to actually leave the building. At nine o'clock, I can actually say, whoa, It's time for me to go, let me get my ass outta here. And tell people that I can't help them because I'm about to leave. I fucking hate some of the trash that winds up in there for a quick buck to buy another rock. Our turn-over rate has proven itself to be at its peak as we have almost a completely new employee base on night shift. The only people that have been steady with ZLB for the past 2 years are limited to four people. Myself, Anna(newly MGMT. trainee), Thomas, Jessica, and Mac. All of the others have been fired, or quit. I feel so....permanent...Which is bad. After several SOP changes and changes to our training system, of which, I am basically the lead trainer, as well as group leader (which, I was told to still function as a center supervisor, even though that is now outside of my job description thanks to the job redesign from Project Star), anyhoo, I'm the lead trainer and have been training the majority of new people to come into ZLB, and the boss lady has been quite pleased with my efforts. I feel like I'm in a good place at my job right now. I have all of management's support, and they totally trust me and think of me as future management, which totally sucks, because I don't want that for myself, but I am doing what I have to do to get money, and pay bills. I feel that in the near future I will be promoted back to Center Supervisor, as I've been hearing.
In other news, I'm finally going to college. Yes. Let me say that one more time. I'm finally going to college. Thank you Columbus State for not requiring ACT's or SAT's, for I have not taken any of those tests. And thank you Stafford Loans for giving me some monies to go to school. I will be taking three classes, a total of 12 credit hours, which I guess that's full time, for my Financial Aid has stated that they would pro-rate my funds if I didn't take 12. I figured that I might as well just take the three classes, I can handle it....right? Math, Psychology, and English. Math will be through the week, Psych will be three days, and Eng will be two. I have worked it out so I will only be taking 2 a day, but 3 a week. Slick, eh? I think with how I have scheduled them, I'll have sufficient time to go to class, have time to study, and then go to work. Since I now get out a bit earlier, I'll still have extra time to study and do HW if necessary. Sounds like I got it all planned out? We shall see...I'm nervous slash excited to be starting school finally, and I can't help but feel like I'm 14 again going to High School. In retrospect, I'm LIVID with myself for not going to college straight out of High School. It truly was a mistake that I am paying for, litterally...but oh well, theres no better time like the present.
I'm excited for my 600 dollar stimulus check. I should be getting mine direct deposited into my bank account before May 9th. :o) Err...I think I will....I mean...I filed my taxes electronically, and was told if I did direct deposit with that, it would go electronically into my account, but I just remembered I forgot to fill out my 8453-OL form...something I forgot to do last year and almost ended up in some trouble with the IRS...Anyhoo, after I get my stimulus, I'm putting it into a savings account, and setting it up with my direct deposit at work that a portion of my checks will go to that account and THAT is what's going to get me out of Ohio. For Good.
It was a mistake moving to this location. Patterson. ::scoffs:: Everything in this apartment is falling apart. The bathroom is HORRENDOUS. the pipes are leaky, one actually exploded one night at 1am, and I had no idea what to do, or where the fucking shut off valve was....ironically it was in the basement, obscured by the waterfall of water that was pouring through the floorboards above me. When I turn on the cold water in the bath tub, it makes a noise. A loud, angry noise that I'm afraid of...so I have to turn on the hot water first, and then quickly turn the cold water on.
::roar:: and now I have run out of things to talk about.
Goodnight, Livejournal.
