The World According To Jeffery
This past weekend was tits!
Friday went really well. Saturday was a really good time. Sunday was for relaxing.
This week has had it's ups and it's downs.
Monday started off great. Had a really great day.
Tuesday I informed my job that I was not going to be able to work the afternoon cook position, after October 8th, when I start school. I had thought that I would be able to pick up some days in the morning during the week and work afternoon cook on the weekends. Basically, they told me that all they had to offer me was 2 days every two weeks. One weekend every two weeks! COME ON! What the hell does seniority get you at this place for Christ sake! I was pretty depressed all the rest of the day at the idea of trying to find some minimum wage paying job to have while I went to school. I came home and sent some applications to some places online. I was feeling like shit, basically. Went and had some late dinner with Tyree and Angelo. Came back by my place to stalk people on the internet.....very slowly.
Today I woke up still in the funk that yesterday left me in. I went to work trying to come up with ideas of how I could "make" my job give me hours. I was working every angle in my head. I was getting ready to resort to being a complete dick to one of the only people I like at my job.
I was talking to a person in a different department and they were asking what was going on with me because they saw that my job had been posted in the break room. I told her about school and my job situation.
When I came back from my lunch I went to the break room to look at the job posting. I was curious to see what it said, I guess. When I went in I saw a job posting but it was for one in housekeeping. I had seen this almost a week ago and had just dismissed it. As I read it I started thinking that it might actually work for me. It said something like 'Full time, Must be flexible and be able to work weekends'. I got a little worried about 'Must be Flexible'.
I called the boss of that department on one of my breaks to see just how flexible I needed to be. She told me it was a full time position mostly in the morning. She told me to go ahead and put my name on the sign up sheet. I did. I'll have to wait a few days to see it I get it but I am pretty confident I will. I have a good relationship with that departments boss and I can't imagine someone with more seniority than myself will sing up for it.
The conversation that I had with her instantly put me into better spirits. I left my job today in a much better mood than I had just 24 hours earlier.
If anything it might actually be too much work.
Anyone looking to see me better do so before October 8th. The way things are looking, I may not be around much. Getting up early and going to bed early. Whatever it takes!
I'll probably be free every other weekend. I guess I'll find out soon enough.
Good night/Good morning All!
Keep smiling!
