Another day, another dollar

Yay... today after a little over an hour of to-go training I worked as an actual SPG. (It was the first time I did something out of training!) The only thing that sucks though is that they scheduled me for evenings all this week. I'm at home when Nate and Dad are at work, and then I'm at work when they get home... I won't get to see them that much this week :-( .... my feet hurt... and as an SPG, I get to stand all day. Today was slow I got to stand around a lot... which sucks. If I'm moving, time usually moves a little faster, but today it dragged on and on.

Glad people notice

I just read Sessomes's blog today. Here's an excerpt from it:

First off you should know that I am very angry right now, but chances are that I will feel the same way in the morning.
My cat brighteyes is dead ... she died tonight at 9:18pm yowling and gasping for breath. No one would help me get the money to put her down. Even the people whom were half way responsible for her care. So she died right before my eyes. And the fact is is that no one really gives a fuck but me and mom. She was my baby girl that cat was.

And I made the following comment:

"How did brighteyes die on Thurs. night at 9:18pm? I was at you house that night, remember? I was dead tired and I brought a cage over for brighteyes. I'm sorry that I don't have any money, but dammit, I do care. I don't appreciate you saying that no one cares. Sometimes, I don't understand why I even try anymore."

So yeah... I slightly peeved to say the least. I do what I can, even when I don't really feel like it, and then it goes unnoticed. And besides, if Sessome wanted to rant about "the people whom were half way responsible for her care" she should of called Kat, cause she was the previous owner.

First (real) day on the job

Today went well. I learned how to open and seat and do restroom checks and many other little other things that go along with being a hostess... opps... I mean SPG (smiling people greeter). And yes, I HAVE to smile. It's part of the job. But it's okay. I seem to have people skills that I never knew existed. I can't wait to get off of training and make more than min. wage though... Tomorrow I learn how to close and Sat. I learn how to deal with a hecktic weekend at work. Then they want to train me for to-go... I would rather just stick with one thing or learn the salad bar. (The salad bar involves the least bit of social contact.) *yawns* Well, I'm exhausted. I was up late and up earlier. As soon as I finish laundry I get to go to bed. (yay! Sleep....sle zzz ZZZZZZZZZZZ)

Ugh... don't feel weel...

Ugh... I haven't felt very good today, but I'm about to brave the world as soon as I finish this. (I need to get a new social security card for my new job since we can't find it.) I'll probably finish Harry Potter 6 when I get back. Yay... something to look forward to.

Trainie... yay, that's me

Today I spent my first day at "work" as a trainie. I say "work" b/c all I did was watch a bunch of movies and take two tests. I start the hands on training Wed., so wish me luck! Also, I'm over 2/3 of the way through Harry Potter 6... ooooo... it's sooooo good. I can't wait to finish it. (If any of you tip me off with hints I WILL DELETE YOUR COMMENT... so don't try it!) Anyways, Nate and I are going to C-bus today, so I'll catch ya later.

And the search for a job continues...

I had my very first ever job interview today... and my second ever. The first one was at Kroger for 2nd shift cashier. I'm not crazy about working from 4pm- 12am, but I can start Monday at $6.10 an hour... I'm not exactly crazy about the wages either come to think of it. My second interview was at Ruby Tuesday's. Their pay is confusing. (I can't be a waitress b/c I'm not 19 yet and can't serve alcohol... stupid ass law if you ask me.) As a hostess I would make $3.00 an hour plus tips... um... I'm not sure how I get tips, but supposedly I would make around $6-10 an hour, so it's possibly better than Kroger's.... possibly. I have to go to a 2nd interview at Ruby Tuesday's tommorrow and my boyfriend suggested that I ask the host there what he makes. Then if Ruby wants me, I can make a more educated guess. *sigh*supposedly speedway hires somewhere from $6.25 to $6.50 an hour. Dad picked up an application for me... I wish this whole job thing wasn't so damn confusing.

Another Restless Night...

Another restless night for me... imagine that. *sighs* It can be so frustrating to not be able to sleep. Oh well... guess I'll use this time to update ya'll. Today (tech. yesterday) I grabbed a bunch (like over 15) job applications. Kroger is probably my best bet, though I'm still hoping that one of the bookstores with accept me. (Well... actually... I really want Pepsi to hire me so that I could get somewhere from 10 to 15 an hour, but they aren't hiring) I saw Pixy and her mom on my way to the mall. (which reminds me... I need to call Chris tommorrow...) *brings blanket closer* Brr... it may be summer, but it's freezing in here! Grrr... so bored... Nate is fast asleep... and it's dark outside... everything is closed... what the hell am I suposed to do! *looks at required reading assignment for UD* hmmm.... uh, I'm not that desparate yet... close... but no. I guess I'll go check to DVR. Night all.

Well, Sessome... first of all, thank for calling me LYNNE (cough cough) instead of Heater. But anyways, I don't bug you when you don't write in your blog for a week, so don't even start with me.

Also, for anyone else who reads this, feel free to comment because I like knowing that people actually care about what I write in here.

Ok... this past week has been rather interesting. I won't tell ya'll about all of it though... sorry. Anyways... um... I'm working on getting a job at Sam's. Dad, Nate and I went out yesterday and went shoping at Steve and Barry's (everything there was $6 or less!!!) I got 3 pairs of cargo pants, one pair of cargo shorts and a long sleeve shirt with UD on it. Today, I went over to Rena's grandparents farm and ate and had a good time... except that it's that time of the month and I haven't felt very good today. I ended up falling asleep on the couch there, but Rena' did too, so I wasn't too embarrassed. Nate gets to choose where to watch the fireworks since I picked the party to go to, so we're probably going to go up on the roof to watch them or down by the levy. (It's weird... this is the first time in ages that I've been here at my dad's for the fireworks instead of at my mom's. Oh, btw Nate. I don't miss the drinking, ok? )
