Two More Days to Pay Day!


So according to my supervisor last Friday while she was signing of my timesheet, I am required to take a 30 minute lunch break everyday. No one told me that I had to do this. Being that one of the most imperative facets of my everyday tasks is to answer the phone, last week I would just have lunch at my desk and answer the phone in between taking bites from my tuna fish sandwhich on whole wheat. But this week, I must take those thirty minute breaks and everyone else will cover the phones for me. I don't mind taking the breaks, but I hate that the communication in this place is so poor. And then the head honcho from the temp agency that assigned me to this job called me to tell me that I should've remembered what I read in the guidelines when I first went to the agency. I interviewed with this agency back in September of 2007. I got my first assignment in January. It's highly impossible that I was going to remember what was written in that huge Bible I had to sign last year. Anyhoo, hopefully I will get what I calcualted it to be. And during my lunch break today, I figured out what I may be getting next week with thirty minutes deducted from each day. Still not too bad, but I have no idea what it will look after taxes. This paycheck, I still plan to give my mother $100, I want to put $100 in my savings account. I need a new pair of boots because both of my everyday pairs have had it, so that's another fee and then there are a few other small bills that need to be paid.

I found out for one of the ladies at he job that the other temp that was there before me was late all of the time. She had two jobs, so I'm sure the burden was a bit much for it. I can't judge because I would love to have two jobs. Just having this job alone is enough right now, but eventually, I will definitely have to get a second gig. But as always, I first need to secure a full time good paying position and then I can worry about making more money.
