Orientation Day, New Duties

 Evening journeyers how is everyone today. I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend.

Today went as expected. Had orientation at Tops Market this morning. Being placed into the Deli Department, with possible crossover to Cashier as summer approaches. 

Went to work at Dollar General afterwards, spoken with my manager, he wasn't happy that I was leaving, especially over the fact the week before, one of my coworkers quit instantly. But he doesn't blame me for my decision.

With everything that's been happening over the past months, it was a time to make a change for the better.

So, this is the new beginning for me, a new change hopefully for the best. We'll see.

New Job, New Beginnings

 Well journeyers, just as the title stated.

I got a new job.

After 7 years working for Dollar General, 5 of those years being an assistant manager with no prospects of promotion, plus the pressing of micromanaging from the District Manager, it was time to find something new. Around the time of Christmas, actually I started to put in applications around. 

Tops Market uptown, called and set up an interview earlier today. Was on edge throughout the interview and the wait that followed. Been too long since I've done such.

Around 5 this afternoon, i got the call from the Manager of Tops, setting up the following Monday for orientation and congratulating me on getting the job.

Sure, I will be receiving less than what I was in Dollar General, just by a dollar, which is funny. Plus, less hours, something I need to adjust to. Since I'm so used to working up to 40 hours, now my hours range from 16 to 32.

We'll see how Monday goes. I'll be putting in my two weeks, and cause of that, there's no conflict of interest now for the work, I can do both jobs til the end of my resignation.

Til then journeyers, have a good night.

Happy 2025!!!

 Healing Oracle Card: "Choice" I choose serenity, light, and positive energy. No matter what I go through, I choose happiness. I rise above fear and direct my thoughts to God.


Happy New Year, Journeyers!!!

I hope everyone is having a safe first day of the year and is recovering well from last night's celebrations. 

Each year, I start a quarterly resolution, and this year is no different. I'm focusing on a job change because I'm tired of no changes happening. I'm also going to focus on myself once more.
