My life is still full of a lot of hard work, but at least it is moving at an impressive rate. Yesterday at Roger's I'd just started my shift and a lady asked me what day her videos were due back and I couldn't tell her right off the bat because I couldn't remember what day it was! That was kinda embarrassing ( Read more... )

When I first began working at Suzanne's, there was Mary, the area manager, Alisa, the store manager and Allison, a sales assistant. Two girls had just recently quit, so that was why I was hired. Another girl, Sabrina, was also hired just after me. She quit after 3 days. Allison and Alisa both left due to job dissatisfaction. Holly, the manager of ( Read more... )

I am really missing home at the moment. I miss my family. They are going through so many things right now without me. I want to be there for them, I want to help. I miss my friends. I don't have any in Victoria. Not a single friend. I consider Megan, Travis, Penny and Emily to be extended family, and they really are lovely *hugs to you guys!* but ( Read more... )

We spent the Easter weekend in Squamish which was really lovely (as always!) but when we got back on Monday I popped in to speak with the manager Vinnie. I told him I was just checking ( Read more... )

On the 30th I started looking for work. I door-knocked at Roger's video and picked up an application form, and emailed my resume to two companies advertising in the paper. On the 31st I dropped off my completed form and promptly got an interview on the 1st of April, April fools, but it wasn't a joke. It went well, so I really hope when they call ( Read more... )

My parents are going to forward on my ATM card so hopefully that will be here soon ( Read more... )

On Tuesday Jesse and I checked 15 times that I had all the papers I needed and then we drove down to the ferry and I went across by myself. I met Muff at the other end and she drove me down to the border and we sorted out my work visa. Hooray! It was kind of amusing because we had to drive until we were just in USA territory and then turn around. ( Read more... )
