Oh boy..finances. Well, just know that we are broke. Our household income is or has been $10 per hour. My hubby Travis is out of training finally so that should go up. I am trying to decide if I need to file for disability or start working again. Panic attacks follow me wherever I go work unfortunately. But I have been employed for two years or more at two different places. I worked as a mall manager for almost 3 years and only lost that job because the mall was sold. Ok well actually it’s also because I went a little cuckoo.
Yes, it occurs to me that airing all my dirty laundry will or could keep anyone from hiring me. Honesty is the best policy, right? Honestly, I have had twenty or so jobs in the past 10 years. No, I’m not exaggerating. If I have the right boss and am left to run the business, I do well. I can’t work with micromanagers or anyone who treats me like a child. I’m not a babysitter, I am a business manager. The other job I did well at was Starbucks. Not surprisingly, I had an awesome boss who believed in me. He taught me well. So that’s my secret formula to hold down a job and feel good about it.
I just received a phone call from someone asking if I want to apply for a job. NO I don’t. I want to write. I want to blog and interact with others and help them. If I do a good enough job, maybe one day our readers will buy a book from me. I can’t wait to write a childrens book. After figuring out how to work with wordpress. I am from blogger originally and this transition to word press isn’t as user friendly. Hmmm, Should I continue with wordpress or go back to blogger? It reminds me of when MySpace and Facebook were squaring off. I liked the look and feel of myspace so much better. But then everyone went to Facebook. I didn’t like it at all at first. But there was nobody to talk to on MySpace anymore so I jumped off the bridge…lol Perhaps I should be patient with my own learning process. That’s a tough one for me…patience.
