what if god were one of us? no really, what if?
i love the 90s is awesome. i seriously love that show. it helped me bond with co-workers the other night. sadly i still do not have male co-workers. I had to go on a food/cigarette run for this girl (not one of the ones i bonded with), but i got paid for it so i didn't mind too much. when i was buying cigarettes my voice was all shaky and stuff. christina meleo does not buy cigarette's. i feel so tainted. and then when i was at mcdonalds ordering this girl's food the kid behind me in line grabbed my ass. i'm not sure it was intentional, but he seemed to be smirking when i turned around. i pretended like nothing happened, but he was like 16 so i was a little perturbed.
I had my guess interview today. it went well and i got called back for a second interview which was taking place the same day. so i go in for the 2nd interview and all is going well until they have me take the "background check" quiz. For some reason i felt the need to be SUPER honest. One question asked if i had ever taken money from a previous employer and i said yes! because i assumed that those like 4 times that i let other people use my gap discount would be considered taking money. i also admitted that if i could get into a movie for free without being caught, i would not pay for my ticket. and that if i was a manager i would not fire someone for stealing 5 or 10 dollars worth of stuff. I am not a manager and this is why. i don't know when to fire people or when to give warnings. of course, the whole quiz was multiple choice so i couldn't say i would give warnings so now the managers at guess think i'll just let people steal stuff. awesome. I'm pretty sure i came off looking like a criminal. good. on the plus side if i DO get the job (assuming i take it) i get a 40% discount on regular merchandise and 20% discount on sale merchandise. not too shabby. i am undecided about whether or not i'll take it though because they seemed sketchy on how many hours i'd get and they said pay started at $7/hr (i now make $7.25 and at gap i was making $7.50), though that seemed negotiable. of course at the children's place i have a really creepy manager (the old guy who wants me to get a boyfriend...or worse, wants to BE my boyfriend...lets never think that EVER again) and i'm not super tight with anyone yet...but i do have 30 hours for next week...assuming none get cut. but as jen pointed out to me, there's not guarantee that guess won't have to cut hours either...i need advice. comment with some.
i told sarah i'd apply for a job at charlie brown's once school starts again so that if i don't make a ton of money over winter break i won't feel like i have to kill myself. jess, are you interested in joining me? my plan is to request that i get the same hours as sarah so that she can be my ride. hopefully the people at charlie brown's are understanding folk and acquiesce to my request. of course with 20 credits, i don't know if i'll be able to handle a job too, but its worth trying at least. again advice is welcome on this topic.
I'm meeting jamie at belmar tomorrow. woo hoo!! i'm so psyched. sarah is joining me to extend the j-town representin.' hopefully it will be a rockin' good time.
i went to the outlets today with $80 and returned home with $7. i spent 20 on myself. does anyone else find that disheartening? my mom owes me $37 though, so its not as bad as it sounds.
i found out the other day that my cousin from texas might come up to jersey this summer. i haven't seen him since the power rangers were cool. i'm excited to see him. i talked to him on the phone like 2 or 3 weeks ago for the first time in...a LONG time... little things like this excite me.
