Big Decision

Got a couple actually.

The first one is...which friggin' pictures of Boston's am I going to order because I LOVE all of them! I've narrowed it down to I think 14 and so I'm spending just a little over $100. Which, I don't think is that bad considering how good the pics are. I'll figure it out soon!

Second, I already made this decision but I must say it was a hard one to make. So I just started full time at Sears like...two weeks ago I think it was. The District Manager of Aero gets a hold of me and offers me an Assistant Manager position at Jordan Creek. I asked her allllll sorts of questions about benefits, scheduling, ability to get time off if Bos is sick...things like that. I weighed out my options and Aero just seemed like the right place to go. Better opportunity, better pay, better benefits. The only bad thing about Aero is the schedule. But, I figure I gotta sacrifice some things to get where I want Boston and me to be. So this past Sunday I wrote my boss at Sears HC an email giving my two weeks. I feel horrible about it and as each day passes I like my coworkers even more. But then again...I look at where I could be with that company in 2 yrs or 5 yrs and I would be in the same spot. Yay. With Aero there's potential to move up and become a Store Manager (not sure I'd want THAT much responsibility). I also took the job because it is out of my comfort zone. This is a major challenge for me. Instead of taking the eas route and going with the easier, less pressure job...I'm taking something on that I can be proud of. Instead of reluctantly telling people where I work I can be excited about telling them. Yes, its still retail and retail, I don't think is thought very highly of, but its more than that to me, I guess. I'm excited and nervous. But I think I'll do just fine.

I don't start at Aero until the 26th but I worked tonight to fill in. Blah! Sure made for a looooong day! Didn't get to see B at all and that's the part I hate the most! It'll get better...I'm not workin' my ass off for nothing. It will get better. We'll get there soon B, I promise!
