thanks y'all
i did get a lunch break, but I'm eating my food in my car and hoping the lunch box kept it fresh enough cause I don't think we have a proper break room lol. next time I'll just go to the McDonald's or something..
and good to know I'm not alone in my weirdness. I've only got a couple minutes left, so I can't reply individually rn but things are going ok so far. struggling with the cash register but I'll learn it eventually

Posted in First day of work Posted 5 years ago

I got the job, and though it is only temporary and part time, I'm excited to finally start.

Of all the things to be anxious about, weirdly enough, it's bringing lunch. I have this little niggling fear that I'm gonna show up with this doofy red lunchbox and they'll look at me and go "You know you only get a 15 minute break because you're only here for 6 hours right?" or "Oh, we don't have space for that/a fridge/a microwave..." But the schedule said I got a lunch break today, and I would assume I at least get a 15 minute break if nothing else, and if I'm gonna be there for 6 hours, I'd probably wanna eat something, right? EH. My last job was so weird about breaks and breakroom stuff, I think it managed to give me lunchbox anxiety somehow lol.

But that aside, wish me luck guys 'cause I gotta get ready to go now and be out the door in a minute.

@Amber Lynne: I have my first day of work today! So that's cool.
And I don't mind either of us re-using plots as long as we like 'em. Coming up with one is always the hardest part, and actually getting started.
I had a vague idea in mind of someone (or someones?) trespassing through the swamp. Maybe they're specifically looking for the witch? Then weird stuff can start to happen. 'Cause I know if I were a witch, I wouldn't appreciate people snooping around my house, either. :Y

@Amber Lynne: Oof, sorry for disappearing; I didn't expect anyone to reply so soon and got busy with other stuff. I finally got a job interview and I've been completely scrambled this week trying to get stuff in order.

If you're still interested, I definitely prefer to have an end goal in mind, so no issues there. Plot-wise, I don't have anything really set in mind, either, but lately I'm feeling pretty big on witches...
though abandoned places with ghosts or portals are also pretty versatile, so I don't mind either way.

This has happened to me a lot. Especially since I have to wait for it to cool before I can drink it. Then it cools too much because I forgot :(

Time to bring this back up, in case anyone wants to give it a go.

Posted in I got an interview tomorrow Posted 5 years ago

@koneko: Exactly. And I'll p much have to, since it's temp, but if all goes well I'll have until sometime in November. Ideally, I'd see about transferring to their other store when the season is up, but that depends on them and whether or not a better opportunity comes along elsewhere.

@koneko: FINGERS CROSSED.. again. but i'm sure they will. they are gonna need people in there. She said it's more of an "as needed" basis than a regular schedule, though, which is OK I guess. It's not a really huge operation. > n> and 9$ an hour, bleh. BUT this just means I'll have the chance to do commissions or something on the side now.

Posted in I got an interview tomorrow Posted 5 years ago

I just got back from the interview. It was very laid back; the woman I talked to said I seemed pretty chill, and she'd pass on the info to her DM and I should hear back within the week. Pretty sure I got this.

Posted in I got an interview tomorrow Posted 5 years ago

@koneko: we can open one together and save some of the hassle. It would be p nice, though I'm under no illusions that running one would be as relaxing as visiting one... Still, can't have too many places dedicated to helping out kittycats. Or coffee.

Posted in I got an interview tomorrow Posted 5 years ago

@koneko: SHEEEI--
though come to think of it if it were possible to combine a small bakery with a cat cafe, that'd be purrfect perfect. quick, somebody win me a bunch of money
