Thanks! we're doing clean-up, so that's going to be protracted ... and someone else is handling some functional issues (like, when people forget their passwords, trying to get it to send them the info ... not that it ever did realiably, but ....). No bonus, but I'm taking off a bunch of Fridays ... which should be restful.

Got the first really good night's sleep for quite a while.

It says something when the high point of your week is a trip to the dentist (teeth are fine, but I need to floss better).

hah! a lolcat that expresses my emotional state for the past ... while

So I have a job, well a job offer but not an official job until I get a thing via email that I fill out and pass the background check and all that jazz.

But I have a paper with names on it and official info and they are paying me above minimum wage.

I got asked again why I wanted to work there and I didn't go with the truth (I applied on a whim to see if it would cause an anxiety attack) I went with - Best Buy is a solid company and gadgets are cool.

So I have a job

yay for the job! and do you get to play with the gadgest? you know, so you can tell customers about them?

Congrats on the job, askye!

They do cross training in the various departments and I'm staring off as a STA (Sales Transaction Associate) aka Cashier and then people can move out of there. They did ask what department I'd be interested in and I said tablets, that seemed to get a good response.

They are setting my start day as a week from Saturday. And DAd is traveling to Maine and then he'll be here and was going to be here during that time. The orientation is 4 hours and with the distance between here and the store it will eat up the whole day. So I'm not sure how Dad and I will work around that, but we'll figure out something.

However the manager did say that sometimes things could take longer.

Congrats on the new job, askye!

Yay! Best Buy gets quite a few of my dollars. I'm delighted that some of them will head your way!

yay askye! congratulations.
