So I'm still around. Kind of. I've had quite the ride involving jobs here... but it seems to be working itself out and i'm finally happy. I quit my job at Peets middle of September.

Since we had 2 hours, instead of the hour and 20 minutes, he told us that the test was going to be longer... 75 multiple choice instead of the normal 60. Good thing I was still the first person done with the test....handed in and out of the classroom by 9:30. To Starbucks and home ( Read more... )
