    Default quit my club, out of school for now, travel questions

    My life is nutty. So I quit my club last Thursday, which was done very humorously. The manager sometimes gets into moods, so being worried that if I gave notice she'd pitch a fit and decree "if you don't work next week you can't work this week!" [she's done it before] I didn't tell her. I didn't plan to tell anyone until the end of my shift on Thursday, but I decided to actually request music for my last night. I never do, at most I'll give a genre but that's about it. But, I wanted one of my CDs played [Strongbad, if anyone knows it you get a cookie]. So he's like "are you going to be requesting music now??" me: "well, er, no, this is my last night." "oh!"
    I get up to the stage, help the last dancer off -
    DJ over the speaker: "and guys this is her LAST NIGHT so tip her well, okay?"
    dancer: "what?? Is it really??"
    Me: "yeah, and the most amusing thing is I haven't told management yet."

    Her face was priceless. A minute later I hear her in the DJ booth "you IDIOT!!" He apologized, I wasn't mad, though, I was too busy laughing.

    So, money-wise my last night sucked, but oh well. I had enough to buy presents and get on the road. Then on Friday I had my last final, statistics, which was mostly irritating because the teacher is one of those purposefully irritating ones - us: "So what topics should we be focusing on?"
    him: "*blink* What, we studied 10 chapters with 250 pages of materials, all of it is test-worthy."
    Us: "So should we focus on the textbook or lecture notes?" [these differ dramatically, by the way]
    him: Anything is up for grabs.

    Grrg. But, I think honestly I aced the final and got to quote Katrine on a bonus question, so all is well in the world.

    All my other classes: human bio 2, physics, and developmental psych went well. unfortunately physics was prepatory/remedial [damn my homeschooler education with no high school transcript!] so I can't qualify for honor roll.

    I'm kind of in a manic happiness because I'm currently out of work and will probably be very poor at the end of the holidays, and then taxes on Jan. 15, but I don't care! I'm so happy to be out of that club and with my family for a little while and no homework that ya know, I don't care, yet.

    Oh, yeah, I did have a travel question, because I've been planning to travel around and dance - what do you do about money?? Do you find a very large chain bank? Do you keep everything in cash and under lock and key? What do you do?

    Always focus on the examples in the book, and the lecture notes, and rework all problems that were assigned for homework.

    Congrats on being out of that club! You have no idea how happy that makes me - really And congrats on a good semester



    About money, you can do a few things while on the road, depending on preference:

    Use a large national bank chain like Citibank and make frequent deposits

    Use any bank you find offers the best deal and service in your locale, buy money orders with your cash and mail in the deposits (I've done this for years and no probs). Make the money order out to yourself, sign the back and put your account number on it, fill in a deposit slip and mail it in.

    Buy money orders from the post office and hold them until you're done travelling (be sure to check for an expiration date - something like 90 days...?). If you make the postal money orders out to yourself you can redeem them for cash at any post office. Other money order services don't cash them like the post office. Or you can hold the money orders until you get home to deposit - just be sure to make them out to yourself and keep the receipts separate in case you lose them, you can use the receipts to trace and get the money back.

    You could also wire the money to someone at home. All of the above suggestions will result in the cash being traceable in one way or another. I have yet to find a reliable UNtraceable way to keep cash safe while travelling - there's no totally safe way to carry cash.

    Thanks for suggesting the money orders, I couldn't think of a way to get around traveling with cash, especially if I ended up somewhere without a familiar bank chain.

    Aye, Bridgette, I'm happy to be out of there too! At the end it was like I was too broke to go elsewhere and too broke to stop working! Ick, horrible!

    Hey Luna,

    Glad that you're out of there. With all the bank mergers you'd be hard pressed not to find a Bank of American or Bank One anywhere in the US even out in the middle of podunk. lol You could always try dancing at one of the clubs I've suggested.
