First day of work

[GeneralSnake]

Well, I had my first day of civilian work last night. I work at this truckstop that has a blimpys and pizza hut in it, I work at both blimpys and pizza hut. It is alright, 8.50$ an hour, nice people, they are pretty fun too.
Depending on who is working the register, we can eat as many pizzas and sandwiches as we want too.
It is really slow this time of year, mostly a few locals and random truckers passing though so we are basically just trying to not be bored the whole time. Even the manager is really cool, and understanding.
I made my first friends in Utah also.
Going to be getting my permit tommorow, and then after 40 hours of driving, my license. And after a few paychecks, a used car also, which I cant wait for, I really miss my dad and once I get a car I can go see him. I havent seen him in 8 months or so since we lost our house.

[Storm_Shadow]

Glad to hear it, buddy!
It's nice that your first experience on the job is a positive one from a management standpoint. That can make a big difference.

And while it might not be novel or exciting for very long, it IS work, and that's a good thing. (teh incoming money doesn't hurt, either. ).

Congrats GS.

Congrats on the job, Snake! And $8.50 is not bad at all for a first job.

When you go to look for a used car, you'll be surprised at some deals you can get. Much cheaper than buying brand new.

Sounds like you're doing well, and having a good attitude all the while! That's what is most important: being able to appreciate all that you have. I hope you can get that used car soon and see your Dad.

Congrats mate.
Things looking up for ya.

I too started my career as a food hasher. Pizza Inn for the record.

Free food, decent starting money, friendly people. What's not to like.

Yeah, I keep meeting new people, there are a lot of part timers, many of them juniors or seniors in highschool, so I am making some friends, which makes me really happy. I was damn lonely out here for the first two weeks. And the food is actually great.
Honestly, I think the pizzas we make are MUCH better than any other Pizza Hut I have been to. And the grilled chicken teriyaki sandwich at blimpys, OMG.
I would be getting fat if I wasn't doing yoga and working out at the gym.
