Everybody’s leaving..

Current Mood:

Right so it turns out that my coworker who I get along with the most just gave her 2 weeks notice. She’s quitting.. :weeping: Pretty sad.. I might not see her again.. My boss was not too happy about it. I heard they had a little argument. My boss didnt even ask her to stay. Anyway so yeah thats it. I also heard a few other people who plan on leaving. Then again those might just be rumors but if they are true, my boss will be forced to ask the “seasonal” part-timers to stay.. like me.. I dont like working there but I wouldnt know what to say if she did asked me to stay.. I dont know whether I should say yes or ask to be transferred to a closer location. Basically people are quitting because of this one person.. She’s such a kiss ass.. I wont talk about her in detail but yeah. Nobody really likes her except for the manager and the assistant manager because she loves to kiss their ass… :yuck:

So yeah tonight, there were these 2 guys who were harassing one of the ladies that I work with. She asked me to call security but I didnt know the phone number… :embarass: So then the guy was like ‘haha you dont know the number’. Basically they were swearing and harrassing her in front of the customer. Finally they left and now she’s afraid that they might come back. They were her ex-roommates who stole her shit. So yeah that might be reason on why she’s thinking of leaving… :look:

Tomorrow is the day

Current Mood:

So tomorrow I’m going back to school. It’s going to be interesting since I havent seen the boys in so long. I have yet to submit that resume for co-op though. I’ve finished it I just have to do that reference resume… Which I dont know how to do… :sad:

Right so The Blue Jays wants to work for them again this summer. I cant wait to see the fellow ushers that I used to work with. I get to see some new people and I hope some cute guys. ;P If I do get into co-op, I might as well quit my retail job since co-op will be in the day and Blue Jays at night. If I dont get into co-op, I’m stuck in retail…. :weeping: That is if I’m still there. I am after all a seasonal worker.

Not meant to be..

Current Mood:

Since I’m now admitted to co-op, I wanted to apply for this job in Kraft Canada. They didnt alot of qualifications and some knowledge of SQL is an asset which I have. The job posting was online until January 17. So I decided to apply. I fixed up my cover letter and resume. Then I wanted to get my marks from my first year term. I know that I had written that on a piece of paper somewhere. I couldnt find that piece of paper. So I decided to get it online… Unfortunately once the website loaded, I wasnt allowed to log in since the system is only open until 9 pm…. :banghead: I only have my second year Fall 2005 marks.. Kraft Canada wanted all marks so far.. So that’s one job down… :weeping: I’m definitely disappointed… I could’ve just as easily gotten that job since there wasnt alot of requirements needed… They even had 2 positions for it… I guess it wasnt meant to be… Hmmm…

Working

Current Mood:

Right so my domain was down for too long last week… Maybe around 5 days or so. But now its up and running and I’m happy to say a part of me is no longer lost… lol. Work is going okay. I have no weekend this weekend since I’m working Friday through Sunday. That will suck for sure. But I do need the $ indeed. It’s been dead which makes the day so much longer. The good news is I’ve been able to make the goals that are set for us everytime we work. Last night my goal was to make $350 in sales and I made about $360-ish. Like I said, it was pretty dead.. The store had a bad start in the morning.. More returns than sales… I met a new girl at work. She came in to drop by her void check. I’m not sure what this means on my part on whether they are keeping me or going to let me go since I am a seasonal sales person there. We will have to see.. They havent talked to me about it or any of the other seasonal sales person.. :???:

Back up

Current Mood:

Spam is slowly increasing in this site… I’m getting comments from various inappropriate places.. :devil: Right so now that the domain is up, I had to back up my files. My last back up was last year November.. I really should regularly back up this site in case something happens..

Anyway speaking of backing up and computers, I was thinking of buying a hard drive.. Internal or external??? I’m thinking external since I dont know how to install internal hard drives. Even if I try, I’m rather worried that I do something wrong and I end up not having a computer… Not a very good thing for a CS student… I have no $ though so I cant exactly buy this new hard drive.. But I’m so tempted which is bad since sometimes I tend to be an impulse shopper.. That didnt work for me last time.. Last time I was an impulse shopper was when I bought my DVD Burner which I didnt know only works for region 1 DVD’s… :irked:

The Mail

Current Mood:

The one thing that I hate about moving to a new house is the mails that take forever to get here. I’m talking about the mails that I get from Toronto Blue Jays… I took the advice of my supervisor when last year on how to let them know of a new address change. I took her advice, called the phone number and left a little message. I thought they got it ok since I didnt hear back from them about any conflicts. They didnt change my address.. They keep sending my mail to my old house. Luckily, the post office forwards the address to my new address.. The only bad thing is.. It takes forever.. Mail that is sent in December, I only got them this month. :mad: So mail that I got about going back this season as an Usher, I just got them a few days ago.. They want to hear back from me by January 31st… :sowhat: So that means, I have to go tomorrow to Rogers Center and send them all the files that I signed so that they can process it.. It wouldve been nice if I had received the letter weeks before the 31st.. If I got the letter in February, they would think that I didnt want to come back when I did.

On the brighter side of things, I caught up with my homework in assembly language.. All I have to do is do Stats.. Not a big fan of stats.. :bored:
