Checker or Counselor...What will I be?

This photo reminded me of the typical one you would see on those pamphlets that say "Do you need help?" or "Are you feeling depressed?" This is where I would come in to save the day!


Yesterday I finally had my interview at Raven's Way to be a counselor trainee. I left feeling confident that I answered honestly and adequately. There was a board of five members that asked me a series of questions dealing with the position and life in general. At first I was nervous but after a while I calmed down.

This is me as a black man working as a checker. Macking on all the hotties that come in the store. "Would you like your receipt or just my number?"

This morning I had an interview at Lakeside Grocery for the checker position. By the end of the interview I had the job. I never thought I'd be this excited to work at a grocery store. I start tomorrow and can't wait to finally get some income again. I let the boss know that I interviewed for Raven's Way but he was cool with it and seemed to understand. At least this way I have a job no matter what happens. There's also an accounting position at the grocery store that he said I may potentially move up to after some time. Having that on my resume would be awesome since that's actually a good paying job.

Now I'm off to celebrate my last day of freedom in the sun. Later I plan to write about one of the five books I'm reading and the wonderful shows I've been watching.
