First off, I know she doesn't need any more reminders than what is absolutely unavoidable, but Nest ladies: We've got a friend to pray for, hardcore, for comfort and strength. LJ-ers, we've got one, too. READYSETGO.
Well, work was okay today. It wasn't great, but I really dislike my job so it's not like I have a lot of days where I can come home and be like, "Yay, who cares about retirement? I can stay here FOREVER!" Ick. My managers treat us like dirt. It's not just the cashiers or floor associates, it's everyone. They're just uncaring and cold. God forbid I get sick one day and need to call out - that won't happen. Aaaaaand, apparently they will keep my last check if I quit without notice. Plus they evidently make your last two weeks miserable after you DO put your notice in. I don't know how I'm supposed to get out when I have something to replace it (which, God willing, will be soon.)
Chad's trying to get me to apply for this Creative Director job at the local newspaper. It's basically the creation, formatting, and editing of all of the advertisements in the paper. Bad news is the ad's been running in the classifieds for months. That tells me - LOW PAY. But anything's better than what I'm doing now! Plus, working for a paper could get my foot in the door with becoming a photojournalist (cue everyone groaning. Yes, I'm still between majors.)
Yes, I'm stuck between nursing and photojournalism. They would both be something I would really enjoy doing every day. But nursing school is extremely hard to get into and could take a few years just to make it into the program for an associate. Then comes undergrad school. PJ would take a much shorter time, and I'm ready to start a career - I was supposed to be graduating with my bachelor's this spring. It's really disheartening watching all of your friends make a life for themselves, and you're still stagnant, trying to figure out what the heck you want to do with your life.
*sigh* Macy needs to go outside, thus, I'll write more later. God bless, everyone!
[edit un] Nestie Sarah, I haven't decided anything yet...she's been sick the last couple of days and I've been babying her...but she's been doing better in pottying outside. I think it's partially a patience thing with me, too. If we got a tether and stake for her for the front yard, she'd do wonderfully. So I guess we'll see. :/
