just an abnormal girl living in a normal world.

Long story short: I was forced to resign from that lovely job that I spoke of in my last post.

Didn’t think that would happen did you?!

Me either.

They couldn’t even fire me at the end of the week so I could get a full week’s pay, but whatever.

So I’m back at square one, scouring the internet for jobs and applying. Blah.

Good things did happen in between all the chaos.
Um.. I got a boyfriend now! lol.

I had an interview!

Got the job, but I don’t really want it.

I have to give up my night and weekends for mediocre money.

I hope that I like this job.

I start on the 11th, maybe I’ll find something better before my first day.

Maybe the airport will call me back and tell me when my start date is. I mean I’ve only been waiting since January.

Either today or tomorrow, I’m going to take a test for a city job.

Thing about that is they take forever to tell you your score and to hire you, but it doesn’t hurt to try.

I went to pick up my last check yesterday and the Assistant Manager told me off the record that I got mystery shopped twice and I scored 100% on both of them.

So that made me feel good. I hope that cold hearted bitch of a manager realizes now that she lost a good employee.

I hope they don’t make their quarterly payout because of me. If they do, I want my cut.

So, until next training class I presume.

Toodles.

I survived 2 weeks of orientation, training, and work!

I miss people in my training class.
All of us are working at different branches.
The people I became cool with work out on the island (That’s Long Island for any non New Yorkers).

Friday was my first day at the branch.
My supervisors are cool, the branch manager I don’t know about yet.
I met everyone else that was there and they all seem pretty cool, they’re all older than me, so I guess it’ll take some getting used to.

Got my first check and all I have to say is, $124 in taxes!! That hurt my soul.

No complaints so far but I haven’t interacted with any customers or met everyone yet, lol.

Well, well, well, I haven’t been here in a while.
First & foremost: Happy New Year & all that jazz..
Secondly: After months of searching, I finally got a job!
I’m happy & scared at the same time actually.
This is going to be my first real full-time PERMANENT job.

First person I told was my mother, and she seemed excited, but then I told her I was starting next week because Tuesday (today) would be too soon & I have no time to prepare, she fucking flipped out on me!
Talking about you gave away all your dress clothes, that’s why you have nothing to wear and blah blah.
They don’t fit, I can’t start a new job with washed out sloppy looking clothes.
Plus, it’s professional dress & I only own ONE suit. Pretty sure if I wear the same suit for a week people will notice.
She totally sucked the fun out of me finally getting a job to the point that I wasn’t even excited about it anymore.

Anyway, first 2 weeks of the new year wasn’t too bad, but there’s still 50 more to go.

Just seems like when something good finally happens to me I can never enjoy it.

You’re making me answer these asinine questions for a job.

You have got to be shitting me.

I probably still won’t get an interview.

I bought a GRE book & vocabulary study cards last month & I finally opened and really started reading it.

Only did one chapter though, but there’s no point in cramming for this.

I want to take the GRE before the year is over.

What really made me start studying?
This decoded thing believe it or not.

I saw how much time and energy I was putting into it and trying to go out in the street & decode pages & I figured if I’m putting this much effort into this shit that I probably won’t even win, let me put some energy towards making an attempt to get into grad school!

One step closer to… I don’t know something.
