Sideshow Joses
Today I had the urge to walk out of my job. It was a dumb urge, but I had it. It came after a brief discussion about why I was working there. My manager was talking to me about becoming a shift manager. She suggested that I quit school and come work there for her. I shared that the only reason I worked there was because it fit around classes. Jokingly she said "so your just using us?" to which I replied"yea, for a pay check!". We all laughed about it
After that I just had the urge to walk out the door and never come back. Leave it off of my applications and start with a job that I want to. As I was driving home I realized..I really don't like my job. I like a few of the people I work with, but not enough to stay there to work with them. I don't know what I want to do right now, and I don't like school nor could I afford to live if I went full time. So part time school it is along with full time work. I just feel like I should make more money for the work that I do. I am a darn good worker, and I think that since I have had several jobs that pay a lot better than this one, I don't see why I shouldn't have one now. What's the deal with this? I feel more like a slave to work than ever before. It's real dumb. It doesn't seem right, and I am looking for a way to change that. I am just not sure what the next step will be. Maybe I should run away with the circus.

I'm guessing Stacy. But i can see the other. I was told to be a ringer cause I would be more useful to her. "I can do everything else, I'm not trying to make your life happier" i still want to say to her.
You are a very hard worker. I would work for you any day even if it was emtpying porter pottys. Honestly i have thought about quiting so many times. When I started i didnt plan on staying to long, i just wanted to get out of my old job. It was nice to meet cool new people. You always encourage me to be as good as i can be and get the best reward for what i do. I just got my old job back because I realize it wasnt as bad as i thought. I'll start after my 12 week classes are done.
You are so much more than Panera. I do know that you could also be a manager. I know you see the need for a great leader there but sometimes its not worth the fight. School always comes first. My old boss always told me that. I wouldn't blame you at all for leaving, but if you ever do go somewhere let me know. I like working with you.
