Got me a job.

I'm happy.

I start tomorrow 10-2. Gonna be tight while I go in for a few hours to learn the ropes before the girl I'm replacing leaves in two weeks. But I'll manage. I also have to decide if I want to try to maintain 20 hours at the store to keep my health benefits for the next two months until those kick in.

Congrats on the job!! It would probably be a good idea to try to maintain the 20/wk at Z's for the health stuff just in case. Shouldn't be too hard between weekends and such, should it? Kinda kills the social life, but I think that would be a small sacrifice for a couple months for the sake of health. You never know when sickness or accidental injury can strike.

Or as people have pointed out, working a 60+hr week could just increase the odds of me needing health care. I'll try for it and see if it burns me out, worst case is I'll bail early and buy into some short term care like I did over the summer. I figure I could get away with 2 6hr weeknights and an 8hr weekend day. Maybe tue thur sat or something to spread it out. I'll have to talk to my managers about arranging for a specific schedule to maximize my sanity.
