    Default Today is a Good Day

    After getting that grocery store job offer today, this has turned into a great day. Sure, I'm far from getting out of the weeds yet, but it's a step in the right direction.

    I don't have to spend a fuck ton on gas, so when you think about it, even though it's the same pay rate as Mervyn's, it's actually more when you factor in gas usage. I have to be very frugal since I have $60 and need it to last until I get paid and I have to buy stuff for my uniform.

    But I feel better today. I have a job. I get paid weekly. I'm going to see my parents and friends in a month.

    And guess what? A company in Boston has paid for a ticket and accomodations for R to go do an in person interview! He leaves tomorrow

    It is maddening to work that day. I used to work for Victoria's Secret and we couldn't take thay day off. Good thing you'll be working at Safeway instead!

    Yeah, they said Black Friday is dead at the grocery store, but the week of Thanksgiving is nuts.

    This job already sounds good. Service training is next Wednesday, and not only are they paying us to go to training, but they're also paying for us to drive a hour each way to drive to the training store

    That's just for next Wednesday. But I think I can make it to work in town until I get my check. They pay weekly.

    GR: Honestly, it's a sales job. Do what you gotta do, right?

    As far as quality of job goes, Safeway is significantly a better choice than Mervyn's. This is a union job(UFCW), correct? Sunday's at time and a half, triple time holidays, all that good stuff, I hope. Good Luck!

    Yes, Safeway is a union job. I have never had one of those before!
