Hello all,

Well start off with, daughter went back to school this week, much to her chagrin. It snowed Monday, not a lot but enough to make snowballs and such, perfect snowballs. Monday also saw me start a job, at a pharmacy called Boots. It will generally be an evening gig, 530 pm to midnight. I have had it in for a week now and am enjoying it. After my first shift on Monday I got a call for an interview with another job, when it rains it pours right, and interviewed for it on Friday. Daughter starts Spanish classes next week.

This week also saw the first official teaser poster come out for the upcoming Transformers movie (this is just for me, lol).

The job pays minimum or a little better so I am happy. I also told my current boss that I was available during the day also, hopefully that will get me some more hours. The job I interviewed for on Friday was a Space Management Administrator (entering information into a database) and is with partners college. The two together would add up to about a full time job.

The interview (Friday) itself was a little weird, I was instructed to be at a certain room in the university building at 930. Well I was at said room at 920, no one there, a lady asked if I was lost and I replied about the interview, she went and got a ket to give me access to the room and prepare for the interview. I sat in the room for 30 minutes, until a guy popped his head in asking if I was here for a meeting and I said no, an interview. I was asked to come out of the room while he called HR to find out if there was a mix-up, HR said yes there was an interview (at least 3 actually) scheduled in the room I was at AND that I was not on the list, even though they had spoken to my partner to confirm I was coming! So the lady (Josie) that had originally asked if I was lost informed me there was another applicant sitting in the hall and invited us to follow her to the mess hall, so to speak, and got us each a cup of coffee, meanwhile we were waiting on a return call from HR trying to figure out what was going on. Josie said she would wait for the call for us, it was coming to her office. The call apparently never came, so Josie found out on her own where the interview were supposed to be held, a floor up from where we had been although no one had informed the applicants, and she came back to get us (me and the other applicant) and showed us the way. Man was this lady nice and on top of her game, she said after she took us to the interview room that if it did not work out for either of us for the interview to come back and talk to her about a job in the catering department. How awesome is that? The interview did seem to go better than the last interview I had at the Uni, I will hear back Monday, Also Monday I am returning to speak with Josie about maybe something in catering. (sorry for the length I arrived at the school at 930 and di not finish my interview until noon.)

that is about it for me, another wild and crazy week. I will try to continue to post at least weekly, although I still have to work my posts around partners schedule and now my own.

Thank you,
Chris

Peace... One Love
