I just got a call for Steven's ex-wife. That was wicked creepy. The guy was badgering me about really being her and lying and I had to tell him that I was her ex-husband's girlfriend and I didn't feel comfortable giving out her information. Welcome to the Twilight Zone.
Anyhow, training started yesterday and it was happy. For 20 hours a week, after 6 months, I get a 401K option. After one year or 1,000 hours, I can option in for health insurance. Yay for a back up insurance plan. I get 30% on books and accessories and 20% on music. I can order at least some of my school books from there for 30% off, which is going to be fantastic. I get 15% off of any software I need from Gamestop. I can change my availability based on vacations, if I need to, as well. The only thing that will be a little bit of a pain in the ass is that I need to know what I'm doing 3 weeks in advance. That's not too bad, though.
I've got to call Ben, actually, when Steven gets back, so we can find out when the rest of training will be. Store officially opens the 15th. of September, but I can work many hours starting the 23rd.
Dammit. I waaaaant coffee. Stupid FoodTV has a show on coffee on and I can't have it anymore. I need to go to the North End. Boo.
I'm going to fetch the mail.
