Birthday Drama

So I was watching t.v. late last night.

Adult Swim to be exact.

They were saying something like,

"Happy President's day, when we pause Black History Month to celebrate some of the biggest slave owners"

I thought to myself that's pretty true.

Something to think about.

Anywho, I had a pretty interesting weekend.

Didn't do anything major just hung out most of the weekend.

Today is one of my good friend's birthday. 

She turned 21.

She wants me to celebrate with her tonight but I don't want to be tired tomorrow.

I have class and I have to work, I need all of the energy I can get.

She doesn't work tomorrow.

I'm just too nice to say I can't celebrate with her.

I'll probably say I have to be home early,

maybe she'll understand and see that it's the thought that counts and I showed respect by seeing her on her special day.

Wish me luck!

Sleeping In

I canNOT wait to sleep in tomorrow.

I have no work nor school.

I do have work tonight until 11

but that's not going to stop me from having a good night :)

Most likely I'll hang out with my "brotha from anotha motha"

Jonathan!

 But hmm what to do?

I mean I am getting out of work pretty late so I highly doubt anyone would want to go out.

Lol

But the good part is the sleeping in, I miss it so much!

Starships

Nicki Minaj - Starships

Powered by mp3skull.com This Nicki Minaj song I just posted has been on repeat since yesterday when I downloaded it. I'm not a HUGE fan of hers. But most of her songs are actually amazing to me. When she's rapping random words, that's when I don't really listen to her. When she's singing or she has like a club or pop beat or background, that's when you'll see me having a jam session. I love listening to her when I drive. I feel like I own the road. Is it even legal to have your music blasting while driving? I know it isn't safe, but is it illegal? ;) I always do it. Music is basically my life, I know everyone says that but I listen to music like 23/7 That other hour I'm probably sleeping or working. Actually I take that back because there's music playing in the store while I work. Without music, life would just be.. ehh.

Mean Customers

How was everyone's Valentine's Day?

Good?

Well I spent mine working all day :)

And proud of it

Like I mentioned before I'm now officially a Deli Clerk at Publix.

And yesterday I worked from 3 to 12.

Well at least that's what my schedule said. But I was able to get out at 11, 

which is when Publix closes.

It was pretty interesting. The people I was working with were really nice to me.

They understood I was completely new and they didn't put any pressure on me at all.

This one woman that I work with, I forget her name,

I felt she was rushing me a lot.

Her reason was because supposedly on Sundays 

the deli get's pretty hectic.

But I'm new!

& you're going to rush me using the meat slicer?!

You crazy?

She told me to hurry up a lot.

But I kept my mouth shut, as always.

Overall, I had a good day for my first day at work.

When it reached 11, it was like a beam of light came from the sky.

I was so excited to go home and literally jump in my bed.

Let's talk about the customers shall we.

Most of 'em grilled the crap out of me like the look on their face

looked like they were thinking "What are you doing back there?"

They probably thought I was like 12 or something.

But I bet I proved 'em wrong when I was cutting their meat.

But why can't customers see it like that.

I'M cutting their meat. I'M doing them a favor.

They don't seem pretty appreciated.

But I guess that's life.

 This one man was standing there, I walked up to him and said 

"Hello sir, can I get you anything?"

He just looked at me.

No smile, no smirk.

Just straight up staring at me.

I didn't know what to say so I was just looking at him.

Finally he said "Um I guess you can.."

My manager said "Don't worry I'm watching him."

So after I cut this rude man's meat,

My manager told me

"Kyle, do not let this guy get to you. Don't let anyone get to you.

Take your time, you're going to be getting a lot of a**holes for customers."

For the first three hours I was pretty nervous, I felt so pressured with the customers.

When I went on my lunch break, I called my friend.

I was basically venting to him telling him how I felt with the customers.

He told me 

"They're just people, like you and me. Don't worry, you'll get used to it and start realizing, You're the one cutting their meat. So even if they're being mean and rude, you can take your sweet time doing them a favor."

Makes sense to me. 

I guess it is just something I'm going to have to get used to, like everything else I start.

:)

No Valentine

Happy Tuesday.

Yes it's Valentines Day..

Well what do you know, no Valentine for me lol.

I actually never had a "real" Valentine before

Yes I've been asked to be someone's Valentine before, people that are not of my interest if you know what I mean.

But I've never experienced the whole Valentine date thing.

One day.

So I went to Publix yesterday. I was taken on a mini tour of the store

Was introduced to some of the sales associates

Some of them didn't look too welcoming

I was told I would be staying there until 12 at night

But I left around 6.

Today I have to go from 3 to 12 at night. 

Maybe I'll get out at 6 again? lol

I just don't want to be on my feet all freaking day.

I  know it's more money so I need to suck it up but still

This is my second job and I can tell it's going to be madness. 

You know that giving up feeling?

It's increasing

I can't count how many times they told me the Deli is the hardest department in the whole store.

Sigh

I guess I'm spending my Valentine learning how to use a meat slicer..

Nice.

First Day

These Mondays really sneak up on me.

Today is my first day at my new job.

Publix!

I'm excited yet nervous.

My weekend was pretty busy.

On Saturday and Sunday I had to go to Boca to the orientation.

Saturday's class felt like a long history lesson.

All we basically discussed about was the founder of Publix and so on and so on..

Sunday was a bit more interesting, or I just wasn't as tired as I was for Saturday's class.

Sunday's class was all about safety hazards and such.

Each class was about 6 hours each.

I was so pooped by the time I got home, I just crawled into bed and played my video games.

I was told that the orientation classes were part of my training and that I get payed for attending.

:D

That;s 12 hours right there.

I get payed 8.50 the hour

so thatssss...

 102 dollars!

Yayy, I miss having money lol.

Let's not forget about Friday.

On Friday I didn't really have any plans. 

During the afternoon, my friend Jonathan tells me that he's going to this nightclub called 

The Manor

and that I'm invited.

So I was like hell yeah I want to go.

That night was pretty fun, I saw a lot of familiar faces and danced a lot :)

So cross your fingers for me today.

Hopefully it will go well..

AND FAST!

Got the Job

I'm currently employed!!!!

I got a job at Publix in the Deli department. 

Though I'm excited to work again, I'm not excited about how tired I'm going to be.

I will be working part time, but I feel they needed someone in that department so badly they're going to give me as much hours as they can.

As of now, all I know is I start my first day on Monday.

From 3 to close

which is 11 at night I think.

So school from 8-1

Then work 3-11

Wow

I don't want to see anyone's that day because I will be 

soooooooo cranky lol.

Knowing I have to wake up early the next day.
