Hey there sex machines.
Let's see... where did we last leave off? I think it was when I quit my job at the Whole (Whole Foods) last year, right?
Lots has changed. I think I posted about sobering up, then kinda disappeared from here.
So now I'm in college full time, working toward the degree I started in 1997. I'm finally a sophomore, after 14 years.
About a month ago I got "hired" with a catering company that operates out of the back of a family owned BBQ place. Except they only used me for one job, then didn't call me for a couple of weeks. I finally emailed my boss there asking what was going on, then suddenly I'm scheduled for a job today (I find out 2 days ago). That's fine and dandy, but to be honest, I don't really care for anyone there except for my boss, and the place is absolutely FILTHY - right down to the long-time employees smoking in the kitchen (though not while handling food, at least).
I told an old friend that I met while working at Papa John's that I was thinking of calling up my old store to get some part time hours. Well, he passed my number along to the current store manager (who I used to work with when he was a driver), and he called me yesterday.
I put in my 2 week notice with the catering company yesterday (though I doubt they'll schedule me for anything else anyway). After this morning's catering gig, I headed up to my old stomping grounds, Papa John's. I've worked at something like 8-10 different PJ's over the years (either on loan or on transfer), half of which no longer exist - but this is the store I started out at.
I put in 6 1/4 hours at PJ's and walked out with about $70 in tips and mileage (not counting wages). Used a little under 1/4 tank of gas, probably $15? Not too bad at all, especially considering this delivery area isn't ritzy. Not ghetto, but most of it is solid working class and lower middle class (with some new upper middle class stuff on the northern fringes and a patch of fairly wealthy homes that some developer dumped in the middle of suburbia).
So I'm sure I'll have some stories for you guys soon. But for now... wassup?
