and I went to hang out with again last night. We had a good time. We watched “Clan of the Cave Bear” then watched and his brothers play Dance Revolution on his Xbox. told me to come to his job today to talk to his uncle about a job.

I went and I got the job. I am so relieved. My short-term is set to run out in a couple days. I was about to be royally fucked because I was only going to get $165 a week for unemployment; there is no way I could have lived on that.

Right after I got that job two other places called, offering me a job. The job I had already accepted is in a machine shop… macho man . Either of the other two jobs would be easier, but both are customer service jobs and I am sick of those. I am going to try the machine shop and see if I like it better. I have to go in tomorrow, fill out paperwork, and then start training. I am excited. I will be working nights 4:00-2:30 off Saturdays and Sundays.

My new boss told me that right now is their slow time, but as soon as business picks back up (in a month or so) he will definitely hire Tamara and possibly another friend of mine. I am going to refer to the job once it becomes available. It would be cool for all three of us to work at the same place again.
