I had my shift changed so that I had wednesday off and worked Thursday and Friday. (7:30am-3:30pm) The training was really easy and we were let out early both days. On Thursday our trainier let us go at 3pm and then on Friday he let us leave alittle after 2pm! we still get paid until 3:30pm though. woohoo! My friend gail drove me to Zellers on Thursday and then again on Friday when we were done so I didn't have to wait around for the stupid bus. I get to go driving today at 4:30pm. He has given me more than 11hrs driving time (the amount included in the course), since I don't get to practice at home (most of the people in my class were just out of high school and they can drive with their parents). I wonder when he is going to take me to take the driving test with the government. I think I'll ask today, just so that I have enough notice to book it off at work. I think he does a bunch of them in one day (and then you get your certificate saying you took the First Rate Drivers Education course, when you pass).
Anyway back to getting off early yesterday.....when gail dropped me off I decided it was pay day and I wanted to buy myself something. I headed over to Urban Planet and bought myself this dress shirt that came with a little vest type thing that goes over the dress shirt and a tie. I think it looks pretty hot. I own lots of dress shirts so I can use the vest thing and tie with those as well if I want.
The "w" button on my keyboard is broken (it gets stuck repeatedly and doesn't work), and I never really noticed how much a person used the letter w when typing (I got it to work once and copied it and now just press ctrl v to get it). Sam actually bought us a new keyboard a couple of weeks ago, but that one doesn't work now either, so I'm back to using mine.
I was looking at the shift bid for next month and they are all pretty decent shifts, I think the latest one is until 11pm, but they are pretty good about adjusting my shifts so I can take the bus both ways. They did start this new thing were your shift starts at different times on some days though, some at 11am and some at 12pm. I'm not all that fond of this idea-because I take the bus and it makes a big difference in what time I have to get up and which bus I will need to take. I will however be getting more than 40hrs a week next mth, so I can just bank the double overtime. I think it will work out.
