I have wanted to quit this new job twice.
I have written on my calendar...You will not quit you can do this.
I have texted Kim I can't do this.
I have said when payday comes this better be worth it.
(I have feared it would not be.)
I went on Alpine School District and looked at my first check. It's not deposited yet but I can see the amount.
Thankfully, I think it will be worth it.
Number One reason: they pay a month behind, while that is all good in the month of June as I sit in my house, do yard work, relax I get a paycheck at the end of that month......but to wait until the end of Sept to get money you worked for in August.......
Number Two reason: getting up at 5:15 is really early and now the sun is not up as I am........
Number Three reason: It's only 2 more hours a day than I used to work how can I be this tired.......
Number Four reason: I qualified for the second pay raise (based on hours worked) just as I was starting this job and I wanted to see how much more it was (it took 3 years)
And in Westlake Blue.......... 2 stories:
I check in the shipments and we got a shipment of towels with the name of our school on them ordered by the drill team advisor. She came down to get them and I pulled one out of the box and waved it around and said , "It's a rally towel." She said, "That's a good idea we will advertise them as rally towels when we sell them."
Funny.....that"s what they are called in the sports world. And I know that!
Students stop by all the time to ask me to photocopy their homework. I had just made one of my drawers in my office a snack drawer for my kids. They both came in and there was one friend with them named Kate. A small, quiet talking girl shuffled in and asked me to copy her written paper. I said sure but she had to wait for a minute. My kids were all talking about the snacks and I said you need to offer one to Kate as they were choosing what they wanted. They little girl who was waiting said "Me?" I said, "No those are my two kids down there and I was talking to them. Then as my machine jammed and I was already annoyed I thought yea sure I'll just hand out snacks to everyone like you? So I shouldn't have but I said, "Is your name Kate?" and she said, "No." (So I guess I was not talking to you.) ( I thought that)
