For weeks I've been at rather loose ends, which is why I applied for the seasonal jobs (and the money, of course) and also started volunteering at the library. I found that sitting home all day just isn't for me at this stage of my life yet. I've had a busy couple of weeks with job interviews, drug testing, Christmas shopping (a little bit), weekend visit to Rice Lake, watching Alex for a while last night, and volunteering 4 hours at the library today. Turns out that I'm kind of tired and looking forward to relaxing a bit.
When I got home late this afternoon, I had a call from Kohl's offering me a job conditional on a positive drug test (which I'll go do again on Monday but remember to drink a lot of liquid before I get there). I also have the offer from Target that was conditional on a positive drug test, but I haven't heard back from them. I did the test on Wednesday so I'm guessing they might have gotten the results today, which might mean a call some time this weekend. What a bother! First I'm sitting around with nothing to do, and now I have too much to do! I want those Kohl's discounts and first shot at Target's Black Friday deals! Funny thing about that: I don't really need anything from either store as I could do all of my holiday shopping online, but I'm smelling the deal and hate to miss out!
I"m honestly enjoying this retail job journey. Cracks me up. Can't wait to see what happens.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder I worked at Marsh for 25 years -- I can't make up my mind when offered other alternatives. Not only do I want the benefits for myself, I can't stand the thought of disappointing the people with whom I interviewed. I'm getting soft in my old age!
