up until today, I was ambivalent about keeping the job at the arts and crafts store…I‘ve gone from thinking I wouldn’t be there after Xmas to thinking I would be–and happy about it…And then the Manager snapped at me today…Me and a bunch of co-workers were unloading a truck (which I hate under the best […]

I worked all day at the arts and crafts store with someone I’m not fond of…we got the job done I think, although for awhile it felt like *I* was the only one actually working…he seemed somehow “different” after the 15 minute break…full of energy and ideas… I went out Saturday night to hear the […]

I left work (the arts and crafts store) today (Thursday) when I was supposed to–without having a manager search me for stolen merchandise…dunno what repercussions there will be if any, but I’m sure there will be some…I DO care about keeping the job; but only to a point…It IS nice to have a bunch of […]
