#I've hired and fired and all that jazz but alas

[moononastring]

the moment we've all been waiting for has come: i got my official offer letter from HR. and gigi... i couldn't be happier. the salary is literal thousands more than i asked for in my interview and the benefits are incredible. i start september 19! 

but—and i know this is disappointing—i am gonna keep working at the store on weekends. and although it would be Very on-brand for me, i promise this is NOT me procrastinating on my promise to ask out work boy when i leave. but i have to get a new car and i also wanna save up so i can move closer to the office (which is in a really cool area!!)

but speaking of work boy…. i’m not going to go so far as to say we’re the grumpy/sunshine trope, since he’s very chill and introverted. but he does have a management position and, apparently, a not-insignificant part of that is being approached by other coworkers asking him if i’m mad at them / what my problem is lmaooo

he admitted this to me last week and it still makes me laugh when i think about it.

how's the job search going for you??

p.s. i'm so excited that smtb is back! the last chapter was a helluva ride

Ahhhhhh that's so exciting!! I'm so happy for you darling 👏🏼 🎉 👏🏼 🎉 may your next career step be full of growth, good experiences, and good money haha. YAY!!! Make sure to take some time and enjoy not doing anything (if you can) before starting on the 19th!!!

reading that second paragraph had me squinting in sus at first BUT I commend you for trying to push yourself so you can save! HOWEVER...pace yourself and make sure you don't burn yourself out with two jobs. That can get exhausting. So. SELF-CARE IN BETWEEN ALL THAT!! And keep making that moneyyyyy!!!

And still ask him tf out. Stop being a little bitch about it 🤣🤣🤣 but also that is HILARIOUS and so cute. I love that he shares this with you??? *gestures with hand vaguely* this energy, I'm about it. NOW KISS.

Job hunting is a pain in the ass tbh. I'm a little lost on what I actually want to do next or what I want to look for so it's slow. I want something on the admin side of things but unsure of where to really look. I saw this tiktok about manifesting the things you want by making a list and being as delusional as possible so I went ahead and made one for a job lolol. I'm not really married to the idea of staying in education but also unsure of how to pivot to other things. And I know there are so many videos and LinkedIn posts and blah blah blah but everything is contradicting lol. At this point, I don't care about a "career". I've done that and been doing that and all that loyalty didn't do much for me in the end lmao. I just want a nice comfortable job that pays for my lifestyle. So here's to being delusional and hoping.

thank you so much for reading it bby!! I'm glad you enjoyed it ♥️♥️♥️
