I am quite happy to say that I got the job! Well, i didn't get the job i interviewed for (courtesy clerk), but I got a cashier job...better yet! That's what I originally wanted, but she had said she only had a spot for courtesy clerk. But, after interviewing me (actually, while interviewing me) she said that she realizes it would be a waste of time to train me as a courtesy clerk when she already knows she wants me on register. She said that I have a friendly personality and strong customer service skills and I belong at the registers having more one on one contact with the customers! Boy, is she good! So, in the course of the interview, I got a .15 raise...lol. I can't beleive they pay courtesy clerks less money! But, im not complaining. I just know that the courtesy clerks have to gather carts, bag groceries, clean bathrooms, break room, bottle return rooms (eeewwww). I go saturday for training and to fill out all the paperwork. Then she will put me on the schedule! Because it's a union job, the higher seniority workers will get the day shifts mostly, so i will be doing more nights and weekends, which works out best for babysitter and car situation!
woohoo!!!!
Now, lets just hope this house deal goes well! I don't think I posted yet, but we got an approval with conditions. the condition being that they wanted one more tradeline. It didn't matter if i opened the same day..just had to have one more. So i had to go online and apply for a credit card...hopefully we will get approved then we will be back to looking for houses, find one and close! End of that chapter! Hopefully it goes that well. I shall know in 7-10 biz days if we got approved for the c. card, which of course, will be closed out as soon as we close on our house...lol.

Congratulations! I'm glad you got the job you wanted! Besides, collecting carts and cleaning bathrooms, well, yuck. ;)
Cashiers usually get paid more. They have more responsibility with checking IDs, bagging their own groceries at times, and well, all that money! I always hated cashiering for those reasons. ;) I liked my nice little safe cosmetics area at Meijer.
Anyway, good luck with everything! Crossing my fingers for you on the loan process!
You have a wonderful, precious personality! You're a people person, and so personable! Bless your heart. I know you will enjoy! I really wish I could work. I feel useless sometimes. I wish I could be more like a regular person in this world. Besides my children, and Hans and kids Mama.I'm fast becoming a hermit! I always had a cajun/ french/jamacian/urban-black accent and was hard to make myself understood. Then I had the small stroke last year and speech therapy has been unsuccessful. I'm not paralized and my mouth dont hang open, but well... I'm just not a good patient and not too cooperative, and I just dont try to talk anymore. I really wanted to work in the Gulf of Mexico oil fields as a little ole diver, but my "parents" wouldnt let me. But anyway, I'm envious of you, and you will do a wonderful job. People will be touched by your presence and efforts. Love ya! Kiss, King
