The down side to a new job and Thanksgiving. It’s the day after and I’m one of about five people in the office. It’s almost 3:00 and I have been surfing the web to kill time since after lunch. I wish I had some PTO saved up, I could have stayed home today. I should have some saved up by Christmas, and will likely take the 26th off. Christmas falls on a Thrusday this year, so working the day after will be just like working the day after Thanksgiving. Taking it off will make for a nice long weekend. This company gives Christmas Eve as a Holiday, so taking Friday off will make for a two day week.
On top of my current boredom, I have tomorrow to look forward to. It will be my last day at the Post Office. I am very much looking forward to being done there. I like the job, it’s very self-paced and easy going. It’s the 6-day work week I don’t like.
I ponder how nice it will be after I get moved to Granite City. Just a few months ago, I didn’t work at all. Then after working part-time at the Post Office for about two months, I got a full time job and now work 40 hours at one job, drive about 2.5 hours a day for that same job, and work about 8 hours on Saturday. Once I get moved, I’ll be down to 40 hours with 10 minutes of driving (or maybe even walking). A paying job, and time to enjoy life, how much better can it get?
once you ‘arrive’, YOU BETTER GET A CHICK! People are starting to talk…
jk! (about the people are starting to talk part)
