New Job

Today was pretty unexpected. My kids had just returned back to school from their short spring break. So I had dropped them off and went back home to get myself ready to go jogging/walking outside. While I was getting ready Home Depot calls me and asked me if I can come in for orientation @ 9am. It was a little past 8am when they called and they were about 2 cities away from where I live. It was a very short notice, but I told them that I will be there. I was going about 90 MPH trying to rush over there. I believe I left @ 8:30AM and got their around 8:40am and it usually takes about 20 mins to get there at a normal speed, but that's nothing. I was trying to rush over there because I needed some time to take of my nose and monroe piercing which wasn't a success. I was able to remove my nose piercing, but not my monroe. I couldn't unscrew it because two Friday's ago was my interview and I had taken of my piercings. I was able to put in my nose ring, but not my monroe. So I had to go to a tattoo/piercing shop and they actually needed to re-pierce it (OUCH!)...paid $10! Anyway, the guy that re-pierced it had screwed it on so thight that I could not unscrew it today. So when I got there I apologized and told them that I couldn't unscrew it and they said it was okay for now. Sucks though because they just started to going by dress codes again now that I had just started that's when we're not allowed to wear piercings on our faces. So I need to look for clear studs for both my nose and monroe. Today was such a boring day. Orientation was so boring to be honest. It was the longest orientation that I have ever been to. It lasted for 6 hours and guess what was the best thing that we've learned at that store? The supervisor told us that Home Depot is haunted. Could you believe that? It is haunted by a girl that was murdered there about 9 yrs ago when Home Depot was still in construction. I believe the boyfriend strangled her to death which is very sad, but yes, the supervisor admitted to us that the girls spirit haunts Home Depot. Now even though she is harmless, I am still afraid to use the restroom by myself. =( Well, I should look on the bright side...I finally got a job! It's been 4 yrs since I've last worked and being a single mother of 4 this job would help out a lot! So I am grateful! Things are looking up and I hope it continues to stay that way. =)
