Purrfectly Pleasant Unless Provoked

Started new job today. Doing pretty good. Home for lunch since they close from 12-1. I think it will be a good fit. Small office. Laid back. Ok, have to head back out. Will write more later.

I got an email from an woman who I worked with at CKY. She gave me the info of who to talk to about getting a job at the place where she is working now. That they are hiring and would need to go to remedy staffing to test. I would need to make sure I mentioned to said person that I knew her at CKY. It would be for collections and a full time job if I got hired.

I have still not heard about the 911 job at all. Nothing for 8 weeks now. I still really like the idea of this job ALOT.

I have a job right now that is nice. It could be really nice BUT... Is it what I want to do with my life? I would be with a company that is getting bigger and bigger and there is a chance to grow. I can see that. I just do not want them to invest all this time and money on training me and then I up and leave for another place because of something else coming along. I do not want to go get locked into something though. In 12 weeks if we mesh I will be offered a full time salaried position. I have never been salary. I think that is one thing that is slightly scary. The idea that there will be Overtime but no overtime pay.

Then there is the idea that I had of only having to work enough to get the bills paid down and then I could stay at home with maybe a part time job. Would I feel able to quit something that is salary and does not have that high of a turnover. Would I feel too leashed to the job? Heck already feeling slightly committed and have only been there a week.

I just do not know. The other thing is that the job my friend knows of is really close to my house, the Gold's gym one is soon to be across town. I really do not like that idea at all. If they were not moving the offices I would be more inclined to stay and commit to the job for the long haul I think.

These are the thoughts that are keeping me from sleeping right now. The thoughts of am I making a major mistake or not? Did I get scared and settle for the first thing that came along? Or maybe this was a lucky break and a really good fit? How can I know after one week? Should I call the other place and just get tested and an interview? How would I be able to take the time then to go do what needs to be done to pursue that option?

I talked some to Caritas about this earlier before bed. Just all these thoughts going on in my head. When I am learning at Gold's Gym I enjoy my time. I am just not sure of the changes that they are going to be having. Almost too fast it seems. Do I really want to be a part of that? I just do not know right now.

I started a new job today. It is temp right now thru Office Team, but if things go well it could go to perm in 12 weeks. I am pretty brain dead right now. I think it could be very interesting, but this was only the first day. I am working at Gold's Gym Corporate Headquarters. Yeah, me, working for a health club. *grins* It is call center, but almost strictly outbound calls. I can handle this I think. Right now they are in a major transition because of moving the corporate office across down in less than a month. The only downside right now is that when it moves it will be across town from where we live. That will make getting to work and school interesting. I did not get to do much today though. Just watched other people work. Tomorrow I should be able to learn the computer programs and start getting my feet wet on the calls. We shall see.

Caritas was kind enough to email me that I got my postal exam test score in the mail today. I then quickly called and she opened the letter to reveal a score of 77.

I really thought I did better than that. It was probably due to the personality test. I am hoping the 2 coworkers that took it will tell me what they got. One may even go home at lunch and get his score.

At least I passed and I am on the list. We shall see if I ever get a call to apply though. The score is good till 2007 is what I think Caritas said.
