I can hardly contain myself...

Welcome Back,

Yesterday was to official last business day at work. Most of the employees were transfered to other locations, a few were laid off, and the Office Manager and I was staying behind to close the month, pack up the parts to send back to Chrysler, and clean the place so it's ready for the Kia franchise.

I'm expected to come in 8-5 Monday- Friday until the end of this month... There is a small return that I've been working on. The return is seperated in 3 sections and I've finished 2 of the 3. I expect to have it all completed before noon today...

The Parts manager and part time driver were transfered to my old store. I may be covering for the parts advisor there next week while he's on vacation. Which will be better than sitting here from 8-5 doing nothing while we wait for the Big Return to sent to us. Which could take up to 2 weeks I'm glad I brought my crossword puzzle book.

I have already started applying for a part time job at a few of the local grocery stores. I'd really love to work in the bakery and get more experience in cake decorating. I'd juggle both jobs if I have too. As it sits now, I could be out of work for a few weeks, maybe 1 month while the selling of Dodge and the buying of Kia takes place.

Apparently the company plans to call a few of us back once Kia is ready to go... The only down fall with that is, We'll all be treated as a New Employee regardless of how long we were with the company before the lay off, we will lose all benefits and vacation time and will have to start over again. I guess the few week of being unemployed counts as a vacation, since i was not due for a paid vacation until December

Well if all goes as planned, I'll be making a trip up to Canada in October, which will work out since I won't have to work

So, that's what been going on with me...
I'm sure I'll be spending more time surfing the EF while I'm here doing nothing

Thanks for reading/listening.... Best Wishes
