So yeah, the title says it all really. I'm bored. And I miss my friends. A LOT. I'm still single.... What a surprise. I only ever seem to attract guys who are in relationships or the single ones who only want fun.... its so depressing. Seriously! Where in the world is MY Clark Kent? Obviously not around here. There is one guy that I like... but he's really off limits. What a surprise. Story. Of. My. Life. I really need to get myself out of this town and somewhere new and exciting! But unfortunately that costs money that I dont have. Joys. Mood: bored
My besties (April, Claire and Jen) and I have decided to save up all the money we possibly can within the next couple of years and do Route 66 across America So far, I'm right on track according to my saving plan. The more money the better.
Things will obviously need to be sorted out. Like the gym membership I never use will need to be cancelled.... so that £25 a month will be transferred over to the saving fund straight away seeing as I wont miss it anyways.
I'll have to reign my spending in.... So I won't be able to buy anymore books untill I need to... I still have about 70 I haven't read.... Nights out will need to be kept to a minimum, and random shopping trips will need to be lessened too.... :'( Oh dear.... It's going to be hard!
I'm now accepting donations to the Let Paulie Do Route 66 Fund Mood: excited Music: Britney Spears - How I Roll
I have a shitty 12hour contract (because I went to college in 2008 I had to cut my contract hours at work cause there was no way I could do both). And it STILL hasnt been put up even though they promised it would!
I applied, and succeeded in getting another job that meant I would have to leave my current job. I told my manager, at the time, that I was leaving due to my crappy working hours.
I was then taken into personel and told they wanted me to stay so offered me more hours than the other company that I had applied to.
So I took the job with the understanding that I would be working and getting paid for at least 20hours a week.
And now we're all back to contract hours and I'm back down to my 12 a week. My department manager has, just this morning, told me about it and stormed off to personel to create holy hell about it and has advised me to do the same.
Which I shall be doing tomorrow morning.
There is no way ANYONE, at the age of 23, can survive on 12hours a week! That's.... £75 a week if I'm lucky.
I have bills to pay, I have a car to run just so I can GET to work, I have other commitments that I need to honor and I just can't do that on a 12hour contract!
A lot of the time just now I have to borrow money from the parents just so I can get to work to make more money to pay them back for the petrol they've bought me so I can get in to do my job.
Its PATHETIC.
ARGH.
I'm off to the job centre. AGAIN Mood: Annoyed Music: N/A
