i quit!

heyyy everybody!

i hope y'all are doing good. i'm doing just fine. the temp job last thrusday and friday went great! it was so nice and refreshing to work around such nice people! it really was a nice change. they were all so great. they would always say "thank you" and "please" a billion times. one of the chicks was like "you can listen to your ipod if you want" i was completely blown away by how nice everyone is. it really gives me hope for working in a positive work environment one of these days! i did a lot of random busy work, but i didn't mind because i knew that i was actually helping them to accomplish something. unlike when i did busy work at sodexo, it was just pointless crap that never amounted to anything.

on that note, i quit sodexo. i decided that i would be much happier being unemployed rather than working for my boss for another year. i don't think i would've been able to handle it for another year and would've probably ended up walking out if i had tried. i think i deserve a positive work environment! i feel much better now too. i told him that i got another job, which isn't completely true... obviously.. haha. but now i think i'm going to have to quit getting my unemployment checks.. sooo that sorta sucks. i knew that if i didn't tell him that i got another job then he would try to get me to come back there to work and i didn't really feel like helping him out after all of the crap he put me through. he made me come back in this past weekend already for about 4 hours to sit around and wait for people to come in and sign contracts... about 5 people showed up. so stupid. i'm so glad that i won't have to work there anymore. i feel really sorry for the next person that takes that job, that's for sure!

tory's web mini-series www.copynpastry.com is a FINALIST at NYTV Festival in new freaking yoooooooorkkkk!!!!! http://www.nytvf.com/ there is the website for the event! i'm soooo excited for them!! can you believe it?! i can't wait to see what happens! i'll keep you guys updated! sooooo pumped!!!

tory and i had a nice weekend... we didn't do too much, but we had a great sunday! we decided to go to the city and spend the day. we walked in and out of little shops and pubs. it was so nice to spend the day with tory out in the city! we've only really done that when other people are in town so it was really nice to do it with just the two of us. we had such a great time! we got gelato...mmm it was sooo good! we hung around chinatown and north beach (where all of the nice italian restaurants are). we had lunch in chinatown. it was quite a treat! those servers are so funny. they say like 3 words to you the whole time you're there, but the food came super fast after we ordered and there was so much food! i packed up my leftovers and gave them to a homeless person that we saw outside. she said something to me and i panicked so i just said "fried rice!" and gave it to her... she looked at me funny. tory told me that she was probably trying to say thank you. i'm a fool... lol. later in the night we decided to go to the mall area and go see a movie! at the mall we got mrs. fields cookies.. ahh they were sooo good! so needless to say, we didn't eat real dinner until like 10:30pm when we got home! we saw "Dinner for Schmucks" it was probably one of the worst movies ever. i think it was made for like 14 year olds in mind because those were the only people laughing the whole time. we were glad when it was over. we had such a great day! it's so nice that san fran is only 20 mins away. i told tory it's like we can go on a mini-vacation! i also told him that we need to do that at least once every two months! we had too much fun!

well, i think i'm going to do some work, looking at craiglist and anywhere else i can for a job! i'll keep you guys updated! hope you all had a great weekend and have an even better week!

love and miss you all,
jenn

  1. Jenn, you FINALLY sound so up beat and positive re: your job situation. I'm glad that the temp job(s) are working out.

    It was great to read, in detail, about your Sunday with Tory. You both deserve some fun!

    I can't wait to hear/see the news of his web-mini series. Thanks for keeping us up to date.

    Have a great week yourself!

    Love, AJ
