Work, Work, Work

I had my first shift at the new place Tuesday, and I love it so much already. The staff is so nice, and laid back. It is a lot less stressful then my other job. I also worked there Wednesday. There are still a few things I don't have the hang of but I am getting there. I have a week left at McDonald's, and it would have been less but they lost my two weeks notice. Not impressed about that, seriously that is an important document so how can you be so irresponsible to lose that.
I went into my shift two hours early too early Tuesday so I went back home, and they called to tell me not to come in until an hour and a half later, they basically cut my hours on me. Ugh, and talk about crazy busy because it has been especially during the long weekend. The place was a mess, it would help if we had someone who knew how to do the job to clean lobby. So I also worked last night on till, and they took me off it just to clean lobby then cut my hours again. It really is getting old. I almost got rid of the shift so I could go work, and get trained more at my new job, and I couldn't, and then the person I asked came into work anyways.... I got severely ticked off at the management staff as well considering they always yell at me for the stupidest things.
I dropped my change purse in McDonald's the other day, and I knew that was the last place I had it. I had to ask five different managers just to get it back. The one I got it back from said they might have thrown it away.... I am really not getting this store one bit...
I have to keep reminding myself that I have one week left, and it is very frustrating at times, and I am kind of letting my anger show as well.
I am finally off for a few days because I gave my shift away tomorrow because I have guests coming up who are taking me home. I have also worked for a week straight between two jobs. I really hope my hours have accumulated for a decent paycheck.
I seriously do not get paid enough to be cleaning vomit off the floor, and walls at work. I was gagging so bad I had to ask someone to help me clean it up. Talk about gross.
I am off for the next four days so I am rather pleased. :)

A Balance of Good that Outweighs the Bad

I have a new job. I am very excited. I went to work after having two consecutive days off, and was told someone from a store across the street was hiring, and they wanted me to apply for the job. I checked it out after being cut, and was told to bring in a resume. When I came back I had an on the spot interview, and some training. I have been hired. I am leaving McDonald's behind after 3 years (4 years in terms of school Grade 11-2nd Year University). I am so very excited, and happy. My two weeks was put in the same day I was hired.
So the neighbour has finally pushed his luck. He littered the trash all over the front yard by our doorstep because none of us took the garbage down to the curb last night. He also a few weeks ago put the garbage can right in our walkway out of the house. The garbage in the front yard is all his too. The landlord, and the police were both contacted. The landlord stopped by, and the policeman who stopped by was very hot.
Last week was frustrating at times. I am still quite frustrated about the freeloading comment, apparently making curry compensates for freeloading. I did all the dishes, made the rice, and the other friend helped make the onions up, helped with the dishes, and some other stuff. We went to the bar, for karaoke. We were sitting by the bar cause there were chairs, and the bartender spilled pineapple juice, and got me, and her, she freaked out, and I just sat there drenched. The bartender came out, and apologized to her personally. She made way to much of a deal. When we got home at the early hours of the morning I told her to be quiet, and she wasn't.... My milk is almost gone that I just bought too, That really made me mad because my other friend is lactose intolerant, and I hadn't drank any out of it yet. Her stuff took over most of my room, and made it very hard to get around, or doing anything. She also took the entire pull-out bed, and made my friend sleep on the futon after I told her to share. I am really not impressed to say the least. I did have fun grocery shopping with my good friend while the freeloader stayed at home. I should have bought that dragonfruit! I had fun Blackberry messaging my good friend when annoyed with the freeloader. I enjoyed going to the mall, and browsing, especially when the roommates came.
I have yet to finish that purse. I plan on eventually getting my own sewing machine. A baby lock would be nice. I did pick out a final project, and I cannot wait to make it.
