Work Life

That interview did not work out.  I went through 3 and then got a letter stating that I was not quite the fit they were looking for.  I was almost relieved because I did not know if I wanted it or not.  That saved me the decision-making process which probably would have ended in a no.

I have since moved to the other store in my company.  It is 15 minutes from my apartment, therefore 14 minutes further to work.  I find this store difficult.  I had gotten used to the old one.  I knew the people, I knew how they worked, I knew what would make them happy or annoyed.

Now I have been in the new store for about a month (plus a day).  I still do not have a clue what makes these people tick.  They do not get my sense of humor.  I find myself uncomfortable 9/10.  It is truly no fun and I hate being quiet out of fear.  I definitely cannot be myself there because when I am I get strange looks and am avoided for the rest of the day.  It is pretty upsetting to a social creature like myself.
I cannot wait for the day when I can mostly work from home.  Of course, I have been shorted this week.  3 days.  On the bright side, the boy and I can get crunk on New Year's eve.  Pretty sure it is the only way I will make it to 12am.  Just true as I usually am at work by 720am...
