Back and Broke

Well, I made it back from Florida. Had a lovely time with my grandmother. More on that.

But right now, I've started working at the movie theater. How lovely. You know you are old when you are intolerant. I guess I've been old for a long time because I've been intolerant of many things for a while now. It's a somewhat cushy job, but not very high paying, and the kids are disrespectful and lazy. Not sure how it will be when I start bossing them around, but I see it from the girl who's training me now. I tell you I won't tolerate the shit. But we'll see. Until I know what I'm doing I'm not very vocal about much. Plus I'm not too secure or confident. Turning on the movies and counting the money are a piece of cake. As long as the machines work. Digital movies are so cool. There was only one film reel and it's leaving this week so I haven't worked on that. I've seen how it's put together. Loop the film here, there, everywhere, make sure the soundtape is on the right side, yadda yadda, but since it's leaving I will wait to learn if there is a new one.

I just wonder about future work.....I didn't get the position at the restaurant, then again I was leaving town when I dropped off the resume. I guess I should have seen the manager. I am just starting to worry more. I will be in huge debt and will not want to make $7 an hour again. my grandmother says it's easy to find a job, but she doesn't really know. She has been lucky, true, but it's different in this day and age. Oh the stories she has! More on that later.

Sure, Atlanta will have more opportunities, but there will also be more competition. I'm just getting scared.

I also hope I have enough money to last me the rest of this year. And I hope to make the most of the rest of the year here since I will be leaving when I finish school. So close........
