Day 23

So aside from no one knowing what the hell I was supposed to do last night, it went well.  I ended up needing two breakfasts today—one when I got home, and one now, when I got up—but that’s fine.  These nights are open every week.  I’m thinking I might put in for them.  It’s guaranteed 16 hours a week at an extra dollar an hour, the work isn’t bad (I spent the first four hours cleaning, and the rest of the night pacing or reading), and the guys who stock seem nice.  So if I take these shifts, and I have my shifts I work every Tuesday and Saturday, and they’ve been working me every Sunday (another extra dollar an hour), that’d put me up close to 35 hours a week, which is the max I can get.  And I wouldn’t have to get a second job.  So while it might take me a bit to figure out a way to get my system used to two overnights a week, I think it’d be better for me in the long run.  We’ll see how tomorrow goes, though, that’ll be the real test.  I work until 6am tomorrow, then I have to come back at 3:30 to work until 9:30.  If I get home at 6:30, get in bed by 7, and get up at noon, that’s only 5 hours of sleep.  Yikes.

  1. You poor dear. I couldn't imagine something of the sort. It sounds absolutely terrible. However, if it keeps you in a comfortable environment where you don't have to seek out new skills or meet new people, I say go for it!
