Finally!!!

Ok, so I gave my two weeks notice about a week and a half ago and told them that the 2 weeks would be a week and a half instead :) that means that I only have one day (or should I say night) left at that horrible place!!!!! The last few days have been rather interesting and I must say it was rather hard not to get a big head about it all. One of the big wigs found out the real reasons I was quitting-- not just that I was bored-- and suddenly wanted to talk. (This was on wednesday) After talking to Paul for about 25 minutes, wherin I told him EVERYTHING that was leading to my sudden quitage. Not all of it was pleasant, for that matter very little of it was but he said he wanted to know it all even the bad so I sure gave it :) He agreed to quite a few of my points that I was concerned about- mainly lack of pay and training. Then yesterday morning (thursday) Steve (another big wig but not quite as big) wanted to talk. So I went and told him all the exact same stuff and he was very understanding about my concerns and whatnot. Between Paul and Steve (smaller big wig) I was getting some very interesting offers. They both told me that I was a valuable employee to them and the company and that they didnt want to see me go, they were going to FINALLY give me a raise as well as the raise for the crew leader position that I began about 2 months ago so all in all that would have been a fairly healthy chunk. I told them I wasnt wanting to work nights anymore so they said, "Well then, we can move you to day shift with no loss in pay and if you decide that you dont like that position then we can move you around til you find something you like." I must say that I was very tempted by all the offers but in the end I still said no due to gut feelings that it was time for me to leave that job.
You know as they say- When one door closes, another door opens- in this case, I was talking to Dad about doing some online work for him and it sounds like I might have a potential job there and so I dont have to worry about job hunting although I think I will try to find at least a part time day job just so im not cooped up in the house ALL the time and get a little extra $$ for car payments and w/e. Well, Im gonna go find some shoes for my dress on sunday
