Paid Time Off, Time With Girlfriend, and New Job
Well, I’m a little more than halfway through the time off I took from work. It has been a nice productive time off. I haven’t yet gone anywhere during this time off. I believe I might try to go up north this weekend. I have yet to decide. I would really like to get out of this 110 degree heat and I think this is the last chance I have this summer.
My time off started out nice. My girlfriend, Kim, spent the weekend at my house. She volunteered to help me organize my room. Just to make a point on how unorganized my room was, I had boxes that were still unpacked since I moved in here over 4 years ago. Organizing my room took quite some time. Kim also introduced me to Ikea. I didn’t get much there but there are some neat things I could use. Now I can find things in my room. My room also now reminds me of how fantastic my girlfriend is.
While I’ve been off from work, Geoff, my roommate, landed me an interview at his job. It went really well. It was the most relaxed interview I’ve ever had. Mainly because it was with my roommate but the neat part of it was it was also with a teleconference with the head of IT in Michigan. I guess that made it easier because she was not in the room with me. I’m excited. I’m excited to finally get out of working for McDonald’s but also this job will help me learn more then what school could ever do in terms of computers and IT. I have yet to start my new job let alone put in my notice at McDonald’s but I am very excited.
