Dropped +Crystal off. Went to Walmart and bought some nice pants. Instead of going home right away, I figured that I would make a quick stop, and program my phones GPS so I could find the interview place.

Google navigation sucks. It said my destination was about a 1 mile away from the actual destination. So I got a little lost, but ended up finding the place.

I’m so nervous that I couldn’t finish my lunch. NERVOUS.

I forgot to print out my resume and references on the way home, so I have to do that on the way to the place. Which means I have to leave even earlier than I was planning on. I know for a fact I’m going to get there way before I need too.

The interview email said that the interview will take about an hour. Which means after, I have to rush to get to +Crystal’s work. All at rush hour. Looking at the map, I should be able to get on Rt. 37 to 95 North. And of course it’ll be raining.

I’m so nervous that I couldn’t finish my lunch. NERVOUS.

So I went to a “Hiring Fair” at a national company today. The flier said business casual. Since for the last 9 years I worked at Walmart, I don’t have business casual. I put on my best looking cargo khakis, and nice shirt and a tie.

I get to the place, and the office is empty. The flier didn’t have a time, it just said all day. I got there about 1pm. There’s one guy sitting, waiting. He’s not in business casual.

He’s in a pair of dirty jeans. And. A. Sweatshirt. A SWEATSHIRT.

Anyways. Details of the job;

Outside Sales.
For the first 3-4 months, it would be $2k a month, paid twice a month. After that, its 100% commission. That is too unsteady for me. Great benefits though. Like I told Crystal via text message after,

“If it was salary plus commission, I’d be ok with it.”

So I think if they call for another interview, I will say thanks, but no thanks.

I don’t need the stress of having to make my pay cheque from commission.

Few more hours. This is the first time in 8 years that I haven’t had to come back to set up for black Friday. I’m pretty stoked at this.

The useless deptment manager in electronics is working a 7am-7pm shift today so she gets out of setting up her own department as well. Thats pissed off quite a few people here. I find it funny. How she’s kept her position for this long is beyond me.

Hopefully I’ll be 100% tomorrow so i can eat Turkey and all the fixings, because I have to be back in the store at 3am for my 12 hour shift. Hopefully I’ll find some good $1.96 DVDs. You can be sure I’m going to have my eyes peeled for a cheap copy of mean girls.

Sadly, no copies of mean Girls. I looked.

THIS IS THE LAST WEEK THAT I WANT TO WORK 5-2.

Seriously, I’m doing the receiver a solid here. Just because I’m coming in at 5am, I volunteered to work receiving for the week. I didn’t have to. I could’ve told him, listen we’re both coming in at 5, You’re going to take lunch at 9:30 and I’ll cover your lunch. He does shit to even try to learn about claims, yet we (I, right now) have to jump through hoops to cover down there. I don’t get it. I probably never will.

But I digress.

This Saturday, I did another favour. I’m covering 5-2 to receive in the morning, so the second receiver can actually take his full vacation. I mean, I wouldn’t want to come back a day early because no one would cover my shift. I will have to remember this when I want to take a day off and there’s no one to cover me.

Anyways, after work I want to go to Sports Authority and look at new running shoes for me. Aside from being utterly exhausted when I get home, my cheap $20 running shoes from Walmart, purchased in need during the floods last year, are too big for me, and the laces. The laces are made for hightops i think. They are freakin’ huge! Plus they just are not comfortable running. I can’t wear “hidden socks”, because i get massive blisters. I need new shoes because, well I’m running 2 half marathons this year. However, the cheap $20 Walmart shoes will be great for the Warrior Dash at the end of June.

So after work, I’ll come back to the house, change and grab Crystal for a drive back into Warwick and check out the last years models of shoes at Sports Authority. I have no idea what the movie is going to be this week. At 4:30am, its really hard to remember to grab the netflix disc to throw into the mailbox at work. I’m terrible, I know.

3 more days going in for 5. Then its back to normal. 7-4, Monday through Friday.

Its payday tomorrow. Its also bonus day, I may go and get either McDonalds, Chinese food, or Burger King. I dunno yet. We’ll see how I feel tomorrow.

Good times.
