I have my part time job back
Should I be excited? Hell Yeah! I need whatever extra money may come my way. I decided to call Filene's to see if I was still on the schedule for Friday and Saturday. And lo and behold the manager said to me, "tell me when you want to come in and we'll put you on. Would you like to work 9-5, 10-6, or 11-7...we're open 'til midnight."
I said to myself, who do they think they are? Wendy's or somebody? I told him I'd work 10-6. Well the next day I was running late and pretending I was supposed to start at 11. No one said a thing. I guess they really don't hassle seasonal employees too much. Hey, I'm just here to help out.
Anyway, they put me in ladies handbags. You know, Coach and Dooney Burke and Liz Claiborne stuff. Really expensive. I witnessed lots of couples and men buying christmas gifts for their wives. I started to get a little depressed but later on I cheered up because someone brought in lots of delicious food.
I ate collard greens, fried chicken, macaroni, (the dept manager's black), homemade spring rolls, carrot cake, coconut cake, lasagne, and fruit salad! I didn't have to spend a dime on lunch. I was haaaappppy!
I was so happy I forgot to pick up my first check. I'm thinking this will only help me save money so I'm in no hurry to get it anyway.
Yeah, I'm all about that paper right now son. Do I sound hard? Anyway, for a long time I've wanted to start my own business. Lately I've been thinking about that alot because I found out that because I owe a community college some big bucks I can't apply for any school anywhere! So, I came up with the idea to become an event planner. I will start off independantly, organizing my own events and making money that way. Eventually I might start to organize events for others.
The events would be mainly themed parties at various venues. I plan to put this idea into effect the coming new year. And that would be my new year's re-solution. I would like my first event to be an 70's party. Which will be followed by an 80's party and then a 90's party. I'll have to get more creative after that but we'll cross that bridge when we get there. Any ideas or suggestions?

I think it's a great idea, and if you definately decide to do it, I know someone that does invitations, announcements and other things of that nature. She's a graphic designer but is working at home independantly while she's pregnant. That might help out if you need that sort of thing for your parties!!!
As for your food fest there at work, doesn't it slightly remind you of another workplace food fest??? Yeah I'm getting sick just thinking about it.
