Hello There

Well after several months of not blogging I felt it was time for an update. Well the biggest news is that I got promoted since I my last update. Actually I am about to be updated a second time on this coming Tuesday. This means I will finally be in charge of my own store. I am excited and kind of nervous. I am even more nervous since I can't tell anyone at work, even my boss until after it has already happened.



It all started Tuesday when my district manager's boss came in to talk to me. This got me in a bit of a panic because the idea of a big wig at our company coming to talk to me was not good. First thought was that I had done something really bad. He sat me down and asked me if I was ready to run my own store. Then I heard the situation, to make a long store short it involved criminal charges and an electronic monitoring braclet.



The good news is a 10% raise and more autonomy at work. The bad news is I can't tell anyone until they make they fire the guy on Tuesday. What makes this harder is that my boss knows something is up because my new district manager came to talk to me at work while she was there later that night. So my boss and my crew keeps asking me what is going on and all I can say is that I can't tell them.



Naturally not being able to tell anybody at work made me have to tell everyone else in my life as soon as posible starting with the girlfriend and moving on down the list. That night I was so excited and nervous that I could barely sleep. Now I just what the time to pass faster so I can just get it over with.
