Personal: Work

[butterfly]

Work was odd yesterday.

Not the least of which was two different guys asking for my number (which I did not give out because, dude, like I'm going to trust someone on the basis of less than five minutes of conversation, all of which are work-related, and also because I'm not really feeling the random guy attraction right now.). I mean, huh? I did not look any different yesterday than I have any other day working the drive-thru.

And I was in a bad mood for a lot of last night. Am I suddenly more attractive when I'm pissed off and covering it up?

I do think that I'm starting to get fast food burn-out, which is a sign, I think, that I need to magically get another job the way I magically got this one. Perhaps my mom will happen to mention something tomorrow (no, seriously, that's how I found out about my current job -- my dad just mentioned that he's noticed a Burgerville (actual name) was hiring, I went in and submitted an application, and I was hired that same day -- one of the managers actually raced out to grab me before I got into my car. Possibly because I said I could work any time, starting right then.).

My mom suggested in an email that I think about going back to college. Well, going to college. 'Back' implies that I actually finished a course at some point in the past which is... not true. Which is... a thought. One reason that I left was because I just couldn't stand the idea of being judged, and all the people with the potential judginess terrified me. And I think that my time here has helped me strengthen my skin. I'm still not really brave, but I'm braver than I used to be.

Hmm.

ETA: I'm also actually on AIM, for the first time in a really long time. Screen name is buffyinmotion.

It's confusing, isn't it, when someone compliments you and you think you look like crap!

It really is a bit confusing, yeah. I mean, I don't wear any make-up at work and I think the uniform isn't flattering at all, and on top of that, I was in a bit of a temper.
