No more, please!

Right now, I want nothing more than to be cuddled up by Kevin's side. I hate how this "job" at Safeway is turning out, HATE IT. No one understands how I feel, I can't do the job right because I don't want to do the job...at all! The training is pure hell, sitting at a computer for 3 hours listening to the proper ways of giving "world class service

hey if you're not up for it right now, it's all good! don't beat yourself up about it. :) i wouldn't want to work as a cashier either, i don't like talking to people that i don't normally talk to and i have a crappy memory as well

maybe a good option would be going to an arts college or something and learn about you really like doing. you've still got plenty of time to figure things out

hope you feel better soon and take care!

I'm so glad you said that -__- You're the first person to make me feel good about this and not lecture me about trying it out first (which is true, but I'm stubborn) So thanks XD

In about a year or so I plan on going to college to take stuff I'm actualy interested in, I planned on working so I could make money to go towards it. The college I'm thinking about is private so it'll be more expensive than community colleges.

Thankfully today I get to go in at 6pm (as opposed to 9am x__x) so right now I'm feeling pretty carefree. Thanks again X3

*hugs* It's alright, NaoNao, everyone starts off stupid. Not to say you are, of course! I mean... AUGH. Okay, when I first started at Martha's I had to ask EVERY time where something went. I still ahve to ask about somethings, and I can't even remember how long to put the soups in for, and I've done that at LEAST a million times~
First jobs and first weeks/days at jobs suck. I don't look foreward to my second job, because I'm going to have to learn everything all over again! *huggles* I know what you mean about forgetting things under pressure, too. I could have something totally memorized, but as soon as it comes to apply that knowledge under stressful situations, it's impossible, isn't it? *patpatpat* I'm sure you'll get better at it, with a little practice. Have confidence in yourself~! You can do it, you're smart and competent and drop dead gorgeous *wink* :D So the world's at your feet~ Or, at least Safeway is~ ♥

Yeah but I don't want to get better at it, I honestly don't want to do this job at all. It's too fast pace for me to start off with. I want something that's a little slower and enjoyable. I know I can do it, but I've convinced myself that I don't want to do it so now I'm stuck with this impression. First impressions are very important to me.
My dad basically said that Safeway's at my feet too, they seem desprate right now. I kind of feel bad that I'm going to let them down since they're getting busy, but I'm not right for this job.

[jai_takes_over]

Hmmmm. Maybe you should just tell them to screw themselves and find yourself a better job, since you're amazing and deserve a job as amazing as you~?
So PSHHH to Safeway~! They don't deserve your amazingness~! *egoboosting*

^^; You flatter too much! Lies!
This already is a good job, and apparently union jobs pay well, but I don't see myself being successful at this.

People always understand when your new. I don't bother trying to be nice with people at first (Just be yourself, your nice enough as is.) And concentrate on proccessing peoples orders. Your mentor is there for you to ask questions, don't be embarressed to ask them. Don't doubt youself I bet you most likely have an idea of what you are suppose to do everytime but you are doubting the fact that you are right. Even if you aren't just do it. People don't pay attention to you as much as you think they do at the cash register. EVERYONE has to do something they don't want to do sometimes. Some people don't get to choose where they work or if they even like the job they are doing. If you don't get over being shy, when will you?
That all being said I know you won't really listen to any of it and are just going to fail anyways.
I suggest something not cutsomer oriented. I have no idea what though.

Spoken like a true worker. So many words of wisdom, but we all know I'm too stubborn to follow any of that closely. I quit yesterday anyways, and I don't regret it. I had a huge weight on my shoulders and had a very hard time dealing with it. Now, I feel so happy, I'm my old self again. I just want my first job to be something not so fast pace. It truely was hell for me. I know I could have succeeded, but I had already convinced myself I'd suck.
I let my family and the store down but hey, it just wasn't my thing~
