Wow it's been so long since I've been on here... so much has been happening and yet everything is still the same... life has a way of doing that... I have been in a rut with this job situation for awhile now and mostly I do ok because I know I work 2 part time jobs in an effort to contribute to the household expenses (which I really don’t, I just work to pay off my credit card debt/ car in hopes that one day I will be able to save enough money to have a house to live in). However, the restaurant has been slow to the point of it being a waste of my time to work there; the last 3 days I have worked I have made less than $30 and I have had in order - 4 tables, 3 tables, 2 tables. On the bright side of things the store has been adding on hours like crazy as we put out our spring dressy line, so I’ve been able to pick up some extra hours there. My manager heard of a part-time management position open at another store close to me and last night asked if I was interested… it may not be more hours, but it would be more pay. I told her yes and then I interviewed for it today! I was so nervous! I think that they liked me though and that this is actually going to happen. I’m excited for the growth opportunity and that after 4 years with this company I am being given more responsibility and a chance to do something. This could turn into a great thing for me. I don’t want to lose sight of my original teaching goals, but I also need to be realistic and know that I need to be able to pay my bills and eat so until something else comes my way I need to go with the flow, be open to new ideas. I hope that I’m not getting too excited for no reason, but I feel like I interviewed well and that this is going to work out.
