It's brand spankin' new~!
Feb. 20th, 2008 10:58 pm*twitches* I hate the ads... I'm so used to not seeing them that it took me a moment to register WTF that rectangle of white was between my header page body...
So anyway. this post is overdue, and the only reason I'm even managing to write it up NOW is because I didn't sign onto AIM as soon as I turned my computer on. 8D~ I already told a few people, but now my entire f-list who might give a rat's ass will know.
I FINALLY got a job in my field. Project Coordinator... which, if you ask me, isn't exactly in my field but has opportunities leading up to jobs I might actually use the skills I went to college for... and I actually was twitchy about taking the job, and only because of the time. 8am to 5pm. That is a looooong ass day, and it isn't so much that as FUCKING 8 AM. I HATE mornings.
That and I have a feeling I'll be on the phone a lot talking to people who are like, '...wtf am I supposed to be? I forgot the sheet, but have all the parts... I think...' and I'll try not to strangle them~
But yeah, 12 bucks an hour, benefits, 3.8 hours of vacation time earned every paycheck... or is it 2.8? Either way, it's anywhere between 72.8 and 98.8 hours a year. Which is... 12 days max? Which is kinda funny because Wachovia gives me 15 days straight up [60 hours] and I'm not even full time. Lulz. I don't know if sick days are different at PlanIt, but Wachovia is 15 days flat for whatever the hell you feel like if you get approved for it...
Yeeaaah, and this job starts... March 6th. It was supposed to be February 25th [This Monday! Oh snap~!] but they asked if I can start later so the other girl they hired and I can train together. I should have said no and started Monday like I'd planned, working 12-5 for the first two weeks then 8-5 from then on, because they seem to think I'm going to quit Wachovia...
...but I'm not~! LOLOLOL. I'll keep Wachovia for at least two more months, and put away a decent amount of money before I quit. Wachovia pays the minimum on all my bills, so PlanIt would be savings and paying OFF at least a bill or two. I can suffer for two months, and when I get used to it, it might not be so bad anyway.
But that means I have to go on semi-hiatus on all my RPs until I get the hang of it. Working 8-5 then 5:30 until possibly 11 on some nights leaves only room for SLEEPING. I might turn my comp on, answer all my tags then crash and burn. XD One tag a day. Kinda sad, but better than none at all until the weekend... especially since I used to avoid the comp until possibly Sunday night, but now I've been getting on all day Sunday and Saturday nights, too, sometimes.
But anyway... Done and done. New job. More pay. Less free time. More death. Yay!
