its about that time of the year that many people start feeling a lil under the weather. believe it or not, my danny, is under the weather. the man hardly ever gets sick. but for some reason, this bug has got a hold of him for sure. he's at home right now, i'm hoping, sleeping like a baby. he was instructed to take some nyquil, but he hates taking medicine. hopefully tonite he'll be able to sweat it out...and sleep soundly not having to worry that he might be keeping me up.
this month has been quite a busy one. the colorado trip really made it busy, but also having a new job opportunity arise made it even more busy. i, after 1 year and 3 months, finally walked into the hr office and handed jessie my two weeks notice. i cant even begin to express how good that felt. having worked for a company for so long - a company that i have learned to hate, has really made me ill-spirited towards them. having been able to place that two week notice in was like a slap back in their face. i know they'll be losing a real valuable employee to their workforce, not that they gave a shit, but it's there loss and not mines. i have gained a lot of experience from this company. i cant say it any better than robert x..." you were just buying time here...not wasting it...you were able to pick up some valuable skills that will get you where you eventually want to be." i was almost touched when he said that to me. this man has been working for the company for a long while now, and if ever you get to sit down with him, he really tells you how it is. he does not beat around that bush or sugar coat anything...he's very direct and to the point...the kind of man that home depot hates...but cannot afford to lose. pretty funny i think.
if all goes well, i will be starting me new job on the 10th. i cannot tell you how freaking excited i am. this is the type of job that i have seen myself doing from the get go. i'll have my own little cube, my own desk, phone, keys...security badge...the works. its so exciting. along with it, more responsibility...and i just cant wait to prove to this company what i am made of. i hope to go far with this company and possibly make it a career...move up the steps and gain seniority as i go. its a well paying job, well to my standards, the benefits are the damn greatest there is...and its monday through friday 8-5...cannot beat that! well you can if you only work a few days out of the week and have cash coming out of every crevice of your body...but who has that going on, huh bill gates?
many co-workers have heard of my departure and many of them are very happy to see me go...in a good way. i was warned by the majority that this company is not one to stay with as they do not care for the employees...which is so true i might add. they are happy to see that i finally am able to get out and away from the hell whole of which we work for day after day, hour after hour. a select few are angry of my departure because it leaves them short staffed...boo fucking hoo....get over it. i found something way better than what this company has ever had to offer me...and damnit i'd be a fool to not take this opportunity and GROW from it.
so here i am...living life one beat at a time...and at just the right time an opportunity presented itself...and here i am taking it....my life is slowly falling in sync with the rhythm and harmony life's music...
