Yes two days to sit on my ass and do absolutely nothing at all. Thank GOD. I was supposed to have sunday/monday/Tuesday off and report into work at the ass end of Tuesday night to work 3rd. But on Saturday I was told that I my shift got bumped back to 2nd. Its a mixed bag because by doing that, I now have to work 2nd on christmas instead of 1st shift. That means instead of getting out at 3 and having the rest of the day to spend with the family, I now go in at 11 and have well the rest of the day to spend with the sugar. Oh well because this week has been mad PROFITABLE for my bank account. Lets see Sunday I get in and the guy I who replaced me Juan didnt feel like doing his job so he asked me to switch for that day and monday and he would give me $5 bucks then and an extra $35 on Friday. $40 bucks extra sounded good so I took it. Well monday they needed someone to work a double so I took that to. It sucked cuz it was work 16 hours go home sleep for 6 wake up and oh wash your face and brush your teeth and go back to work for another 8. BUT this is where it gets to be baller status for this kid. Juan hurt his hand and couldnt work, so they came and offered me. I was hoping to just do my job meet production and that be it. But this would mean id be working all night throwing around 50 lbs bags of powdered sugar. But they really needed it so I did it. SO im working and they come and tell me they will pay me Juans rate for the day. $17 something an hour. New motivation completely. So if all works out right I work Christmas eve and christmas day and get holiday pay on christmas thats another day of holiday pay plus the possibility of working powdered sugar again I could make 17-18 dollars an hour(I doubt they would give me Juans rate again). SO this check will dominate every other check that has ever graced my pretty powdered sugar covered hands. It could range any where from $450-500 something dollars. Just for one weeks worth of work. Thats not including the extra $35 from Juan or, the christmas money I should make on Saturday. I could be able to drop like 600-800 bucks in the bank next week . YAY for money.
Ummmmmm other than trying to hang out with my Boy Benjamin nothing has been going on here. Going to call jon and see if he wants to do something either today or tommrow. But thats about it.
