A plan?

April 26th, 2007 at 05:11 pm

So, I've been hunting for a new job ... and working at Cracker Barrel while it happens.

But, then I got to thinking. What if I don't get into the 9-5 work schedule again. I hated how stressed I was, didn't really like working too much ... and the commute. SIGH.

So, I was thinking about staying at Cracker Barrel full time. I've made almost as much in one week that I did in two weeks at the full time job. I'm less stressed, the commute is right down the roaad. And did I mention I have the day off?

Not to mention, I am going to start school again later this week. When would I have time to go to school and work two jobs?

So, I'm thinking about subbing as well. Of course, it's almost summer, so there isn't a need for the next couple of months. And the pay is pretty dismal, not much more than min wage .. but it would pay for gas and food, both important. CB would more than pay for everything else.

I don't know if it's a good idea, but it's something I am looking into. Unless of course, I get an amazing job offers, but my phone isn't ringing off the hook with people begging either.

A new start

So, I did something crazy and unexpected, I quit one of my jobs. The higher paying one. I won't get into it too much, because it's a lot of drama and everything ... but boy, let's just say I wish I could have lasted a little longer with my bosses horrid comments.

So now, I'm struggling. I don't like this feeling! I've had a couple of interviews, and am now just waiting to hear back from someone. ANYONE. Hello, can you hear me? I need a job!

So, since my last post ... I've had a birthday, got my hair cut really really cute, quit my job and realized now more than ever, I HAVE to get better at saving money.

I don't want to ever worry about money again, and I'm worrying now. Stretching, saving and hoping.

Did I mention we sign the lease for our townhouse TOMORROW? I am going to be living with my friend and her boyfriend. We found an amazing little townhouse, big enough for the four of us, for a great deal.

Oh, and I start some distant learning classes on 4/30. Does anyone else feel a panick attack coming on? I feel like I'm drowing, but I know everything will come together soon.
