You got to have a J O B if you want to buy shoes

So, I went to my second job “interview” on the wrong day. I went on Wed. and it was supposed to be Thurs. Ok, I fixed that, went on the right day, even showed up early! I walk in and he puts me to work. He loads my name and password in to the software program and shows me what he wants me to do. I am supposed to put mock orders into the system and separate the ones with double letters. When the sports teams order prints/packages of their team photos, they can choose from about 50 different packages.

Scott (the pres. and CEO of the company) showed me what he wanted me to do and set me free. Okay, second time I have seen this software. It’s a totally different thing when you are looking at someone click here and click there, it’s a whole other experience to be let loose on a program you haven’t used yourself before. I did ok at first. Then I started to question what I was doing. So I asked for help. He said ask if you need help. Well because he was multi-tasking with another interviewee, I waited to ask him until I was sure I had done something wrong. Turns out I wasn’t filling out the right field, which was confusing because I saw him enter the names and team name in the same place I did. Turns out I was supposed to put the name in the name field and it would fill in the other fields automatically.

I did about 3 team packets and started on my fourth right when the other lady came in to test. I did the best I could and other than having to go back and re-do some names, I think I did as well as I could having just used the software for the first time. He said he would call next week and let me know after he has reviewed everything. I am a little impaitent that from the first interview to the actual answer if I got the job is going to end up being 3 weeks. I need to make me some money already!

Natalie and Michael came over last night. We had wings and played board games. Her boys were tired, so they left around 10 pm. We had fun. Natalie and I stayed up and chatted on IM pretty late. I think I left a butt print on the couch!

Today is another busy day. Make dinner for some friends who just had a baby, go over to Matt ‘n Debbi’s to eat and fixerate Matt’s blog and watch some Aggie fooball, and make sure I bring a good breakfast to Sunday School tomorrow.

Monday hopefully brings some time spent with my family and some time spent going salvaging with Natalie.

Happy Labor Day!!
