Tuesday must make haste.
Hey girls, I’m writing this from the library because my computer has decided to die again. I need to call Dell Technical Support soon. =\
This is going to be short because I have to meet my mom at 7, but I wanted to make a post that now, not only do I have another job, but now I have three, and I might have to leave one of them. One I started at the end of July, which is JCPenney. So far it’s been okay, I just have to be up at the ungodly hour of 7 AM almost every day for it. I was really trying to avoid that when I left the last job because at the last job I had to be awake at 5 AM at least three days a week which I am just not good at.
Now yesterday I was just hired at a bookstore called Books A Million, and I’ve wanted to work in a bookstore for FOREVER so I’m really excited about that. But now I have an interview at JB Dawson’s (a restaurant.. that Sarah has been to!) and I’ve been applying there every few months since it opened a couple years ago. I would be a hostess. I definitely want to stay at the bookstore but I don’t know whether or not I should leave JCPenney for JB Dawson’s. My good friend who also left the evil last job has just been hired there and told me they make $2.83 an hour plus tips. I don’t know if this would screw me over or not when there are no customers. My friend said they add minimum wage to your paycheck if you don’t make at least that, but I hope this wouldn’t mean making only minimum wage on a lot of days. I was thinking about reworking my availability so that I could work all three places, but that might be hard. If JB’s is looking for only 1-4 shifts to be filled a week, then I might be able to do it.. but I don’t know. I’d feel like an ass working at JCPenney’s for less than a month and then quitting. I keep badgering my friend for information about what it’s like at JB’s before I go in for an interview.
So, yeah, really don’t know what to do. It just sucks JB Dawson’s didn’t call me before JCPenney did, I guess. JCPenney’s has nice people and the work is easy (almost boring, which is another reason why I don’t know if I want to stay there or not) but they’re giving me solid hours. If anyone has any advice, feel free to share it with me, ’cause I’m lost!
Anyway, I hope to get my computer fixed soon and hear from you guys next week!
