In case you didn't know, for the past four months, I've been working at the movie theaters on base. I only worked a couple of days a week. To be honest, without an outside job, I'd wither away in my pajamas all day. A job helps me get up, get dressed and do something useful with myself. I write articles from home for websites, but its very easy to get burned out from that job (writing all day about things you don't care about gets monotonous)...plus, there's the never coming out of pajamas problem again.
Well, the movie theater did not pan out. Don't get me wrong, it was a great job. It just did not fit into my schedule as I would have hoped. The hours were late (weeknights I'm off at 11pm and weekends it may be 2am or later) and I was not enjoying missing time with John, especially on weekend nights.I guess part of me should have foreseen the hours being a problem, but the job seemed perfect at the time. Anyway, there's no worries about moving on. The base has an extremely high turnover rate for part time employment. All jobs are used to seeing people come and go fairly quickly.
My new job is at the NEX checking ID's as people enter the store. One of my friends currently works there and she seems to like the work. The manager of the department talked it up as well saying how he values the employees and wants to ensure everyone is treated well. This perked my ears up because it has been a very long time since I've worked at a place that adores their employees. Probably not since my credit union job in Virginia. We will see how this goes. I'm crossing my fingers that I really like the job and the people. Oh, and if you see me there, say hello!
