Well, today WAS THE DAY. i GOT PROMOTED AND RECEIVED A RAISE! tHE RAISE ISNT REALLY ANYTHING TO JUMP FOR JOY ABOUT, BUT, EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS, RIGHT? i'LL ALSO BE ELIGIBLE FOR BENIFITS NOW wHICH IS A PLUS. I'LL GET a PAID WEEK VACATION, SICK DAYS, PAID BIRTHDAY OFF... JUST ALL KINDS OF GOODIES. :) mY MANAGER ASKED THAT I NOT GET DISCOURAGED ABOUT MY PAY, THAT IN THE END, IT WILL PAY OFF. eSPECIALLY BECAUSE HE SAYS WITH BEING AS BUSY AS WE ARE, ANOTHER FLOOR SUPERVISOR POSITION WILL BE OPENING IN THE FUTURE, AND ME BEING THE STOCK ROOM LEAD, I WILL BE THE FIRST RUNNER UP FOR THE POSITION.  NEXT MONTH IS OUR ANNUAL RAISE. so...MORE $$$$.  i JUST THINK ITS FUNNY THAT WHEN I WENT JOB HUNTING, I WAS LOOKING FOR A PART TIME JOB SO I WOULDNT COME HOME EXHAUSTED, BUT LOOK AT ME NOW, WORKING MY BUTT OFF! sO, NOW I'M WAITING FOR MY NIGHT OUT FOR CELEBRATING. (mOM, YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO TAKE ME OUT! NOT VICE VERSA, EVEN THOUGH YOU TOOK ME OUT FOR YOUR RAISE, LOL) ALRIGHTY, THAT'S IT FOR NOW. TA-TA!
