In which I talk about my life this past and coming month.
Alright.
So, y’all know I work prep/expo/cook/bussing at Fuddruckers in Idaho right? Yup. Been getting about 40 hours a week, which is quite pleasant, as the weather is brightening up and I only work two evenings.
So it’s annoying that I now have an issue.
See, I don’t wanna be stuck in a restaurant job forever(well, unless I’m RUNNING one I OWN), so I’ve been looking for more work. Note “more”, it comes in later.
I applied for an entry level IT position with World IT Solutions, partnered with HP. The Navy and Marine Corps outsource their IT support to this partnership, and they like to rotate grunts through the junior level positions yearly. So I most likely have a job, provided all goes as my contact assumes it will(I’m told I just have to wait on the paperwork actually going through, but I most likely have the job in hand). I’m on pins and needles waiting for this to come through!
When I get this job, training starts on April 18th. Soon! The job description warns me that I could have any shift during their 24/7 operating hours, and I’d be working up to 20% overtime. That’s roughly 48 hours a week! Could be a graveyard shift, could be midday. Won’t know for sure til… April 18th.
Anyhow, recall that “more” I dropped a little bit ago? Well, it comes in here. I plan to continue working at Fudds! Of course, I will need to drop my hours a bit, but I don’t mind going down to 20ish. It’s nice my boss really likes my work!
So that adds up to 68ish, or to round it to a nice sounding number, 70 hours a week. All summer.
This begs another question: How on earth am I going to hold two jobs, work on finishing the last little bit of my degree, AND spend time with my girlfriend???
Well.
:’(
She’s gonna go home to her parents this summer, and spend some time there while waiting for me to get myself together. It’s gonna suck(especially since they have slow internet and barely any phone coverage), but I think it’s for the best. *crossed fingers* I can bring her back to Idaho soon!
So what’s new in YOUR life?
