ok, so things are looking up for me in some ways
the loan that i applied for got denied due to "Insufficient Credit References" which i think means i dont have enough history. i think when i reapply with my dad as the coborrower, i will get accepted. im going back to school! :)
some asshat decided they wanted to try to hack into my money thru my paypal account. fucker. what did i do? cut the monkey off by the balls. called paypal and my bank. paypal got my info down, helped me change some settings, and is securing that nothing happens, and shutting down the operation that tried to gank me. my bank just totally cancelled the access of my card, so even with the limited info they may hold, they cant do shit with it.
im now 2nd shift supervisor. its a bit weird i have to admit. ive always had Q with me. he taught me from the ground up. he was truly my guide through the whole time i was there just as a machine operator/sewer. ive always had his knowledge at my disposal, and his trust in me to back me up. and now im fairly on my own. Terry (the machine tech) is the only person on my shift who doesnt have to answer to me; but he's not under my command. i rather think of him as an advisor of sorts; if i want a second opinion, he always has a reassuring word. even though he doesnt answer to me, he will still go ahead with things i ask of him, which makes me feel a lot better. i really do miss Q and pants on my shift. when Q was in charge, i thought of myself as his go-to guy; his right hand. if a difficult/questionable job came along, he would say "i need you to run this job". he knew i could handle it; he knew i would give 110% to make it work. it was undoubtably the best feeling i got, knowing that he did not need to watch me, not need to second guess me, and trusting my opinion. now that im in charge of 2nd shift, at some moments i feel a little...i dunno...lacking?...i guess thats the best word. Q had his shit down; he knew things inside and out, and sometimes i dont feel so confident. everytime i feel that way, i always remember that Q and Pants were the ones who pushed for me to get the position; it feels so good to know that my superiors feel secure and safe with me taking over his role. Q, Pants, Lou, Julie; hell, it seemed like just about everyone felt i was right for the job. one other thing, is that my workers actually listen to me. they do what i tell them. they take every bit of guidance and instruction and perform to meet my specifications. it was kind of daunting when i realized "this is all on my shoulders". i know i can do it though. i really wouldnt know how to go about thanking everybody, theyve been a huge help to me, Q especially. they have granted so much trust in me.
what else...oh yes! i went to the renn fest with my sister Booski. we were bad; we each bought cloaks :) and they are super-badass. i had a n awesome time with her. we just toured around, ate food, drank beer, had many laughs, and had some good talks. she is definitly my best female friend.
and uh...i have a new romantic interest. shes definitly awesome, sarcastic, keeps me on my toes. she laughs at every terrible joke i make, i love it. i owe her dinner too. ladies, any suggestions upon what i should prepare? no, im not just buying food and taking it to her. i am going to actually cook and prepare a meal for her. she accepts me for who i am; my quirks and my shortcomings. i feel really comfortable with her. her scent is like a drug, and her touch is soft and warm. i really like her.
well, i think thats all for now i guess. now for a bit of cleaning, and off to bed soon.
