New journal, zomg!
14 years ago
Bleh, I hardly ever do journals, virtually nothing ever happens in my life aside from work and spending time online/gaming. Though, suppose there are a few different things to put up, if but to update some folks of things.
My brothers finally bought himself a house, which he has managed to find a pretty good deal. With the house generally just needing cosmetic stuffs to make it look all nice and pretty again. Well, aside from the rather interesting fact that in the master bathroom. Which is more of narrow and not really wide room. But anyway, it has a full size mirror on one wall, which on the right side of it, about towards the middle. It has a very big bullet hole, .45 caliber I'm guessing just from the size. Funny fact is, with the particular trajectory through the wall, the bullet couldn't have come through the window on the opposite wall. Nor is there any actual history that we can find thus far pertaining to this bullet hole. Either way, brother is going to leave it there as a conversational piece if nothing else. Its not exactly everyday one can boast to having a bullet hole in their bathroom mirror!
Another thing, at work I was asked far as if I wished to be a 1st Assistant Manager. Which is essentially a step down from General Manager. Also, for those that don't know, I'm currently an Assistant Manager at a Sonics, which the store I work at happens to be the busiest store in the state. But yeah, I was asked if I wished to be, to which I had given it some thought and such. After talking with them more the next day, turned out even if I wished to be, it probably wouldn't happen for a few years. Due to the fact that the current 1st Assistant is working to try and be a General Manager. Which, part of the reason I was asked if I wished to be a 1st Assistant. Was so he could, so to say, start grooming me for the job for when the 1st Assistant gets to become General Manager. So it could happen in 3 years or 10 years, no way to tell exactly.
So while I would like to be a 1st Assistant, if but for the experience, what I could learn while being one, along with the pay and being able to put thus on my resume. I more then likely won't be around at the store by the time the current 1st Assistant does become a GM. Since I plan on getting into another field of work, because I don't plan on working in fast food the rest of my life. Definitely not my passion in the slightest.
Instead I plan to get going on college soon, whether in a couple late start classes this summer, or in the coming fall. Not to mention I'm keeping an eye out for a different job, something closer to home mostly so as to save on gas, (Considering I currently drive about 40 miles round trip, but for $11 an hr, not too bad, aside from rising gas prices.). Not to mention just something different then fast food, I've worked at this store for 3 years by this coming July. Not a great deal else for me to learn there as an Assistant Manager, plus with rising gas prices, makes it more expensive to even want to keep driving to work there.
Well I believe thats everything I can think of off the top of my head for this journal. Aside from, anyone else going to RMFC this summer? I'm planning to attend myself, and also making sure I get all the days of the con off. As opposed to how last year went, with practically have the people at my work place wanting that same weekend off. Leaving me with only 2 of 3 con days off. >..>
Also, holy crap, I really need to start looking at my submissions inbox, considering its...well....with how many I've yet to look at, it would certainly take a few days, if not possibly a week of looking through before its all cleared out....as there is around 37,200 or so I've yet to look at....damn my procrastination. x..x But ah well, I'll do it tomorrow. See you later, I'm off to soak in the tub! Had a long day at work, again. x..x
