New job, new laptop
November 19, 2007 || Filed under general, money, work ||
So I found another job in a pub/club right in the town centre. It’s the sort of club people go to before hitting one of the bigger ones, so we aren’t normally overly busy all through the night, just for a few hours between around 8 and 11. I do dayshifts too, serving food and such. They’ve got me on around 50+ hours each week, which is ideal really. Exactly what I need. I’m enjoying myself though it can be very tiring and demanding. I don’t get a lot of time to myself anymore. Or a social life for that matter.
My mum gave me my Christmas present early yesterday. A new laptop - much much nicer than the one I had before. Hopefully this one won’t get stolen from my house. Though this new place is much nicer and the area is a lot quieter and more secure so I’m sure everything will be alright.
I’m lucky to have found this job, really. With rent coming up at the end of this week and debts falling out of my ass - I couldn’t afford to be jobless for long. Let’s hope this one will last - haha.

I’m glad your life is slowly getting better now. You do work an awful lot of hours per week though! Yay for the new laptop!

Hey girl. Im sooooo happy for you!! Even if this job doesnt last..the money youll have made from it should get you caught up. Just remember to relax and think of yourself, too. We have a lot of life left to live and if we work ourselves to death now..what’s in store for the future? <3

Congrats on the new job! It sounds fairly good, since you it’s not -too- too busy and you get a lot of hours (although, what is considered overtime in the UK? Because anything over 40 hours is considered overtime, unless you work in certain professions).
And that’s really nice of your mom to get you a new laptop! And it’s great that your new place is in a better area. ^^
