My original three hour shift turned into about a six hour shift. I’m not complaining about it, but I am most certainly exhausted.

Turns out, I MAY be able to keep this job. Apparently, my manager, Marco, thinks that unless I work more than 25 hours a week, its not even offered to me. He’s going to get in touch with someone who would know for sure, and have her get back to me as soon as possible. Also, doing the same thing with my second pair of pants, shoes, and my belt, that I still haven’t received. I need those shoes. Now. My marching band shoes are killing me. And I keep slipping. :x

I got my first checks today. Pitiful amounts of money for the few hours I worked. Curse you, taxes. Taxes really suck. I wish I could get an under-the-table job or something.

Marco was really sweet to me today when I was expressing the insurance problems. He said, and I quote “I’d really hate to lose a really great worker, especially after the training. You’re really good, and you’ve learned really fast and I’d love to get you to be able to do even more.” It made me feel more confident in working there, and even being able to find a different job if it doesn’t end up working out. I really do enjoy working there. The staff is all really great and so many customers have already told me this is the best McDonald’s they’ve ever been to. But for these longer shifts, I definitely want to be sure to bring my own meal or snack. I cannot keep eating McD’s. I get halfway through and feel like I’m going to vomit. That could just be my finicky stomach, though.

When working at McDonald’s… it’s definitely one of those places that even long after you get off your shift, you’re still hearing beeping fryers in your head.

I’ve been put on the schedule for another day this week and for next week.
