I quit my part time job...
Yeah folks, it ended before it ever began. My first day on the floor was supposed to be Sunday and I called out. I don't think I'm going back. My next day on the schedule is the day after Thanksgiving. Have they no pity?!
How do they expect me to work the day after Thanksgiving? I'll still be recovering from the 'itis.
Anyway, it's not my problem anymore. I'm gonna save some money and focus my attention on the bartending school. Yes, I need money now. Yes, I did talk about how urgent it was for me to find another job. But this is not for me. It pays $7.09 an hour people! Oh, now you understand...
Greedy bastards. That's all I will say about Filene's. I have absolutely no regrets either.
I do, however, regret getting the flu shot. Last week, the company I work for sponsored a flu shot "drive" (I guess you can call it that). But everyone kept insisted that I take advantage of this opportunity to get a free flu shot - especially since there's likely to be a shortage.
So, without puttin much thought into it or doing the proper research, I went ahead and got the shot.
While the nurse is prepping my arm for the injection, in the tiniest voice, she says something to the effect of "you will experience flu like symptoms for the next 4-6 weeks". I said, huh? And she never repeated herself.
I regretted it immediately. First of all, it burned. Secondly, it gave me a headache. And last but not least, I began to fear that I'd been injected with the bird flu.
Maybe that explains all the talk about sex, dildos, and stripping. Excuse me while I discreetly tuck my feathers back in.
Ok. But here's the worse part. I had to sit for 10 minutes under surviellance because this was my first time getting a flu shot. So while I'm waiting, one of the nurses open a new package of injections. She notices that one of the syringes are missing. She says to herself, "that's odd". For a moment, she has a worried look on her face but then brushes it off and continues to administer the shots.
I wanted to say something but my head was spinning. What have I done? I rarely succumb to peer pressure but I really committed a splaboo this time. I really should have known better. Please if anyone has anything good to say about the flu shot please reassure me that I haven't single-handedly stepped into armeggedon.

Sorry about the job, but for that pay, you're better off not working and spending some QT with your family and friends... right??
anyways, don't worry about the flu shot. It's not going to kill you. I've never had one. I don't think I will either... not until I become a "high risk" patient to whom they suggest get them....
don't feel you have to get it just because it's free. don't get me wrong, you say free and i'm there. but not the flu shot. I knew in advance that you get flu-like symptoms from it. I'm sure if you knew you wouldn't have gotten it. Just keep that in mind for the future. As for now, don't sweat it. It will be fine!!
