Going good so far....
Today was my second day on the job and it is going good. I like my job its pretty simple. All I'm doing is stocking rooms. I only have to do one floor and it lasts me the whole day, although that will probably change once I get use to doing it everyday. I haven't met many of the other employees yet because I don't see them since I work on my floor alone. I am picking up on what I'm suppose to do easily it isn't difficult at all. I will be happy when I have been there for awhile and know my way around. I only know how to get to where our office is, the cafeteria, and the 6th floor. Not familiar with the rest of the place but hopefully as time goes by I will get a chance to figure it out. One thing that sucks is I haven't got my work ID yet. I took the picture for it 2 weeks ago I would have assumed I should have had it on my first day. For now, I'm walking around with a stupid visitor pass. I think its dumb, I'm an employee walking around with a visitor pass. I can't wait until I finally get my badge. I kind of like the food they have. I prefer the breakfast but over all, breakfast and lunch, is better than my last job. All of there food was always premade, from the eggs to the burgers, but up at my job there food is made to order. If you want a burger, they will make it right there in front of you. But like I said, I prefer breakfast. They have French toast and I love me some French toast. Its my favorite thing to eat for breakfast and they make it right there in front you as you order it not have it sitting there or awhile. You couldn't get French toast at my old job. I also like the fact that as I'm going to work in the morning, it gets light out. Its nice because I'm not use to it since I'm use to getting out the house at 4 in the morning. I'm going to try and see if I will be able to come in early temporarily so I can keep my baby at home instead of having her go to some random babysitter's house. I have been lucky this week that my mom has only been working half days so she has been getting her in the afternoons but I don't know if that will be over after this week or not. Hopefully I will be able to unless there is a reason why I can't but it would only be temporary until I can get my baby in the same place my daughter is. I have nothing to complain about things are going good right now and I am ready to start getting paid I'm sick of being broke.

Tomorrow is the day...
I start my new job tomorrow. Of course I'm scared and nervous but I'm also excited to start something new. The thing that pissed me off was that our uniform has to be khaki pants. I never knew it would be so hard to find khaki scrub pants. You can find scrub pants in any color except khaki it seems. It figures the color we needed was the hardest one to find. I did eventually find some so I'm good to go. I just hope the day and the week goes by smoothly. We'll see how it all works out. I'm just thankful that I have another job and that I will be making a little bit more than what I was making. I hope there are cool people up there. That is one thing I will miss about my old job is the cool people I got to meet and get to know. Hopefully everyone is nice and doesn't cause problems.
Valentine's Day....
Well Valentine's Day has came and left and of course I spent it alone. It seems like I am always alone all the time. Will I ever find that special someone? It seems like everyone has someone but me. The guy who I thought I would have something with that didn't work out because he went back to his kid's mom again. I knew I wouldn't have a chance. I figured he would try and work things out with her and I knew I never had a chance. It is what it is. There's nothing I can do but to go on with my life. It totally sucks being single especially when Valentine's Day comes around then you see all these pictures of what people get and giving their appreciation to their loved one and I don't have anyone to be happy to be in love with or anything. I will be so happy when that day comes when I am not alone anymore it totally sucks. I hate it so much.
Didn't think I would feel that way....
Well I made it through my last day of work. I thought I was going to be super excited and ready to bust out of that place but I felt the exact opposite. I felt a little sad and anxious because I didn't want the day to end. I knew when the day was over that it was going to be all over. The whole day I kept thinking this is the last time I'm going to do this, the last time I'm going to do that, the last time I'm going to be here. As much as I'm glad to be gone, it sucks to leave because I'm so use to being there and familiar with everything. I'm looking forward to starting my new job but not looking forward to being the new person. I just hope I won't have to deal with the stuff I did when I started my last job. I had so many people come up to me asking me if I was new. But its all over now. I am officially done with that job after 5 years. I still can't believe it but I know its time for me to move on. I just hope this job is nothing like my last job.

This is it...
Today is my last day at my job after 5 long years. I am happy that this day is finally here but it is sad because there is a lot of cool people that I'm going to miss. I am looking forward to starting my new job but not looking forward to being the new person. I just hope I don't have to go through what I went through when I started my old job and have to deal with people asking me if I'm new. Lucky me I don't have to go in until Tuesday since Monday is a holiday to them so I will get a three day weekend. I just hope this is the beginning of good things happening in my life and I hope that this job does not turn out like my last job and that I will somewhat like it and not hate and start dreading to go in everyday. I will be happy when I can get my baby in the same child care place as my older daughter. Right now, she's going to have to start going to some lady's house until I can get her in and I hope it won't be for too long I will at least try to do it for a month. I would rather have my grandma keep her but she has to be at work at 3 and I won't get off until 4:30 and everyone else works days so there is no one to depend on that's the one downfall about leaving my job is that I got off early enough that she didn't need a babysitter. I'm hoping I can work something out with my job to where I will be able to maybe come in early so I can leave early. Maybe after a couple weeks and I have been there long enough to know what I will be doing. I hope they will be able to work with me so that way she will only go to that babysitter for a couple of weeks then I can get my grandma to keep her again until I can get her in with my daughter. I hope it won't take long. I'm hoping by the end of March everything will work out. Another thing I am worried about is finding somewhere there to pump since I am breastfeeding. At my old job it wasn't a problem because I knew where to go but I don't know where to go at my new job so I will ask when I get there and hopefully I will have time to do it. We only get half hour lunch breaks so I don't see how I would have time to eat and pump. I had hour lunch breaks at my old job so this is going to be a transition but I'm ready for something new. I will be happy when I'm not considered the new person any more.

It's official!!......
I got the job!!! You do not know how happy I am. I waited all week to get the call and I finally got it. I was just thinking about it earlier at noon. I was going to wait until 4 for them to call because I figured they wouldn't be calling after that. Well I got the call right before it turned 4. I am so excited. I can't believe I finally got another job and now I can leave that stinking job I have been at for 5 long years. It has been a long time coming. I have been job hunting for over 3 years and I still can't believe it took so long but I am glad the search is finally over. I don't have to look and apply to any more jobs and have to worry about if anyone is going to call me. That is a great weight lifted off my shoulders. Now all I have to do is wait to start. I start February 16th and I go back to my old job on the 2nd so that will be 2 weeks. I feel lucky that I got all the requirements that I wanted in a job. Its Monday-Friday except for the occasional weekend which is every 5th weekend, 8-4:30 and the pay starts at $12.50 an hour which is more than what I'm making now so I am happy and can't complain. So far this year is starting off good I hope it continues to get better.

Hopefully some good news.....
On Monday, I had my job interview. It was nice to finally get one after all the jobs I had applied to. I thought it went well. I was interviewed by four of the team leads at the same time. It was a little nerve wrecking going in but it actually wasn't bad. Now I'm still waiting to hear back. I don't see why I wouldn't get the job I feel I am more than qualified for it. The waiting for a call part sucks. I wish I could get a yes or no answer at least the next day after my interview. I hate waiting days wondering if they are going to call me with good news. It's about to be Friday now and the whole week has gone by without a word. I am hoping I will hear some news Friday to end the week with some good news. I just hope everything works out. I really want this and I would hate to have to continue looking when this job is perfect and I have the experience. It actually has all my requirements that I want in a job. The hours are 8-4:30 and it's Monday through Friday. Although I would have to work the occasional weekend every 5th weekend which is fine with me it's a lot better than every other weekend. I can only assume that the pay would be good but I won't know until I am offered the job. I so hope I get it. I pray pray pray pray pray that the job is mines. Hoping I get some good news by the end of the day Friday. I just want things in my life to start getting better and this would be the first step...
