The call I got this afternoon at 1330 this afternoon offering me extra training was basically a $130 phone call.  It gave me 16 extra hours of work which is roughly $130 after taxes.  It's not a whole lot, but it is a good start.  And, I bet this forum which hounded me over and over to get some kind of retail job, would be okay with $130 after taxes.  Especially when I was bringing in $0.00 an hour for two solid months...

It was always the first result on google for "grocery store opening April 1 in Tulsa" so it was never much of a secret.

That's part of the reason I gave up on the secrecy.  That and I had not one, but two mind lapses.

Ha.  It will not be mentioned here anymore.  I haven't heard a peep from him in a long time and that Facebook page has been taken down.

3 days from right now, I will be on my way to my first day of training for this new job.  I'm anxious and ready to start work.

my guess is bushie is going out with a bang.  the few remaining days of his latest unemployment will be spent pigging out and watching tv for 16 hours at a time.

I won't be doing that, actually.  Tomorrow, I am going to spend one last morning with my cousin and his new fiancée and then have a final family lunch at 1300 before my cousin and his fiancée head to the airport for their 1900 departure for Las Vegas and before I head back to Tulsa at 1400 or 1415.  I should be home no later than 1600.  Tomorrow evening, I am going to watch the Selection Sunday special on CBS and ESPN/ESPN2, but I will need to go to bed by 2200 so I can be up by 0530 Monday morning.  I have to leave my apartment by 0715 Monday so I can be ready to fill out my new hire paperwork at 0800.  Monday afternoon, I need to make a Walmart run to get a few groceries for the week.  I will probably indulge in some NBA Basketball Monday night and then get ready for work on Tuesday.  To make a long story short, I won't have time to pig out and watch 16 straight hours of TV.

I just hope he manages to hit the big three double zero before he starts working. An accomplishment like that would give him a real moral boost on that first day.

I will do a weigh-in probably Tuesday morning, but I can tell you I am probably a long way from that horrid number.

He's resting his feet. New job prediction - 5 days.

Showtime is 2 days 21 hours away, so we'll see how long I last.

Why not make an Asian Market or [redacted] run instead of a Walmart run?

I will probably do some shopping at my place of employment.  I'm still going to keep going to Walmart, though, too.

Sometime during Week 2 of employment, probably the last full week of March, I will be getting an employee discount card worth 15% off retail price for everything in the store.  I would be a fool not to take advantage of it.  I don't know if it will supply all of my groceries, but it will supply some of my groceries.  I will still go to Walmart for most things, but I can go shopping right after I clock out and take some groceries home.

Work Night 2 is tomorrow night
First Day of training is the day after tomorrow!

It's getting real in a hurry!

Why won't you be getting groceries at the place you work at?

The store I will work at doesn't open until April 1.

Bushie will be working at a Whole Foods competitor. My guess is that he winds up buying exactly $0.00 worth of groceries at work a week. Which is probably for the best, it's an pretty expensive store.

From what I've heard from everyday shoppers at [redacted], their prices are more like Walmart.  So, more like a low-priced whole foods store.  Now, whether that's completely accurate, I don't know, but I'll take their word for it since they shop at [redacted] frequently and regularly.

Bushie when you call out do mention what grade your headache is?

I don't plan to call in for quite a long time.  I've been managing my headaches pretty well over the past few weeks.  They haven't been all that bad.  I've had a couple of bad headaches, but I wasn't down for the count.  I can manage them a lot better than I used to.  So, I'm confident I won't need to call in.

I made it back home to Tulsa a little over an hour ago.  I am just going to sit back and relax for most of the evening and watch the NCAA Tourney Selection Sunday special on CBS and ESPN/ESPN2.  I will go to bed just after the news about 2225.

Walter, he didn't give me that speech.  CADD is definitely in a locked chest tucked away in the attic.  It's not RIP, but it's out of sight.

Since it doesn't look like you'll be doing any standing tonight, will you use your standing gear at work?

Yes, I already have the orthopedic insoles in my shoes and have been using them since Friday morning, so when I start standing up at work on Tuesday, I will be using them.

Tomorrow is paperwork day.  It will start to build the foundation on what I hope is a long tenure with this company.  Tomorrow is just paperwork, but I cannot underestimate the importance of the day.  It is the first time I meet my higher ups other than the interview.  First impressions happen tomorrow and Tuesday.  I should also get my schedule for week 2 for the week of March 23-29.
