All Things are Difficult Before They are Easy

I have an interview for a receptionist position tomorrow. I have my fingers crossed big time because I really want/need the job. As much as I love shopping, I'm so sick of going to the mall every day for both of my jobs. I want a real job where I sit at a desk, do paper work, answer the phone, and have a computer. I know I will still have to deal with mean, stupid people, but I feel like they won't be as...stupid. People come into F21 and VS as means of sheer entertainment. To try on clothes. Mean while, I'm working my bum off to put those clothes back and keep the store organized, while people ask me the craziest questions. There is no progression in my job. People mess up clothes, I fix them. Day after day. I want a job where I can go home feeling accomplished, or thinking, man I have a lot to get done at work tomorrow morning. The kind of things I have to worry about now are how many boxes of bras I'm going to have to sensor, or whether or not I'm going to be a cashier, because that's the job that makes the day go by fastest. This receptionist job would also make me happy because the hours are consistent. 8am-5pm, Monday-Friday. My hours at work now are so random. Sometimes I have to be at work at 6am and other times I'm at work until 6 am. (Not worth minimum wage). Not to mention, I've worked a couple 13 hour shifts where I only got one 15 minute break. So please pray that I will do well at my interview. It's for my sanity. :) Also! I get to see Sadie tomorrow. She's passing through on her way to Colorado, so we get to hang out all day tomorrow after my interview. AND..I'm going home in two weeks. WOO!

  1. Keeping our fingers crossed that you get the job. One question, though, how will you work your school schedule around it? Going to miss seeing you when you come home this summer since we'll be taking Dan's stuff out to school.

  2. Thanks! I would just take all my classes in the evenings like I did during the fall semester. It's too bad we are just going to miss each other! When will you guys be back in Ohio?
