Finally

Finally made it back today. 'Bout an hour ago. I was so happy to see the arch since we had been on 55 South for what seemed ForEver. Hmm... My mind is exhausted... So tired.. I hate this feeling. The whole way back, I just kept thinking to myself, "why did we have to argue like that? Why did it have to end up this way?". Then, I realized that That's just life and life IS a b*tch at times... Mmm. Ne who, on the way back I got a call from some lady named Melanie who worked in the Human Resources office at Drury Hotels. I didn't hear it, but suddenly i felt a vibration on my leg, symbolizing either or text message or a voice mail message. I flipped my cell opened and, sure enough, it was a voicemail. How the hell did I miss the call? Maybe I dozed off a couple times during the ride.. Well, i listened to the message and Melanie wanted to "ask me some follow up questions" and what not. Since we were on the highway, I figured right now wouldn't be the best time to call back and try to talk to her. Finally! We made it to the house after 4 excruciating hours. (Okay, the way back really wasn't that bad, for real) We unloaded her car and brought everything inside. I fled to my room like it was nobody's business. haha. I started unpacking some of my things and put my phone on its charger. After that, I looked at the number that Melanie called me from and dialed it back. 3 1 4... 2 3 1.... 3 0 0 3. Then I blew out some air, gettting together what I was going to say. No answer. :-( I got all hyped up for nothing. So I left her a message and about 5 minutes later some lady from the same office called me back. She started asking me those "follow up" questions of whether or not I have transportation, why I'm interested in working there, my availability. U know, standard bullshit. Finally, she asked a question that I was scared to answer. "What wage were you looking to acquire if employed?" I gave a little pause and said, "Well, I was looking in the 8 dollar range, if not higher, considering my current wages that I have." In my head I'm thinking, that's not a bad answer, right? Yes? No? Maybe? oh shyt. She's probably gonna be like, ok, we don't have any openings for the position you're looking for. thank you for your interest". But I was wrong, once again. She gives me the okay and says that the front desk person starts off at 8.50. THank Da Lawd!! After that, we start setting up an interview. She said, "I would like you to come in for an interview sometime in the future. Is that okay?" ARe you kidding me? What kind of question is that?!! "Um, would June 1st, 2:30 be okay?" I say sure and she tells me who take ask for, where to go, blah blah blah." We both say thank u then CLicK! I had a sigh of relief after that. GOd!!! I'm prayin' i get this. This would be good. They're looking for full-time and I have no problem working my ass off everyday if my wage would be like that. DaMn! And this doesn't mean I can't have another job, u know? Let's say i work 3 days a week at drury and i work 7 hours a day. (these are very VERY rough estimates) With taxes taken out, that's about 340 dollars after two weeks. THEN, say I still work at Imo's on saturday and sunday. That's like 210 bucks there. THEN, we have Allstate where I work whenever for whatever long... another 120 bucks or so. Add it up and we have 340+210+120 which equals.....670 bucks. Yup. Approximately. Now...say that Drury ends up having me work weekends on like saturday during the day or something.. that'll be like 450 bucks. Damn! Just for that one job. Not to mention i might be selling CDs for a friend of mine which would be easy money. Hmm.. That would be perfect, but that's 1) if i get the job, 2) If i get as many hours I want 3) my car doesn't just BREAK DOWN on my ass and 4) everything is in order and I still get an apartment. I know it would keep quite a bit of money in my pocket if i didn't get the apartment, but I know damn well I can't stay here during the school year. F*ck that shyt!!! hehe. Things SEEM to be working out... Finally.
