mighty_aphroditeI got "ma'am"-ed at the grocery store today. Granted that the cashier was, like, fifteen. So maybe I struck her as a "ma'am". But damn... Do I look like somebody's mother? Maybe the latest hair cut was too much. (picture later)
I did get some good news at work today. Our manager is quitting to go work at her family's business and the store owner offered me her job for the next two months... kind of. I would get the work, but not the title. But I'm not about to quit the museum becasue I need at least one job I'm not ashamed to put on my resume. And I can't work 40 at the mall as well as 20 at the capitol. So we struck a deal. I'll be working 30 hours a week with a fifty cent raise. What really creeps me out is that she keeps saying that she wishes I wasn't going away because it would be great if I could stay and be her assistant. Do I strike you as McJob lifer? I'm sorry, but I did not go through undergrad, an honors thesis, my GRE, and all the grad school application hell so that I could manage a cookie joint.
