Let's find a schedule

I do not have a schedule in place thus far. Hopefully by the end of the entry I will have one.

The work schedule is going to be nuts. We hired someone who had been working there before, and she was placed above me in the priority list. That means the manager, assistant manager, and two people I have seniority over are literally running the store. I feel degraded a bit. It's not that I need Mondays and Tuesdays off, but apparently Wednesday and Thursday is a problem? That's what I thought at first, but I have to come to the fact that I need to accept my role there. I MAY be picking up a night in the next couple of weeks, but it's still one less that what I really want.

I also may end up getting Friday's completely off. I had asked for just midshift (no night) on Friday, but other priorities made that not happen. So I'm hoping for Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday nights when the Fall semester starts.

Plus, in October, I think I'm still designated as a replacement for someone who's pregnant at Route 30. If so, I want to try to get three nights there, and one night at my place. Me just having one night at my place may still make the schedule there worry-free.

I hope this all works out well.

Anyway, today I'm getting new brake pads installed. I had pads installed in October, and they are squealing already. So I'm getting a refund from Auto Zone. I may also take Dan driving, and cleaning my room. I already filled up my tank this morning.

Michael is gone. His stuff that was left in my room from a long time ago, is now gone. I have a bunch of clothes there I need to get rid of. So I may make a trip to Goodwill today.

I work for Justin on Friday, and I work Saturday and Sunday night. I had a brief morning appearance on Wednesday - yes, a MORNING appearance. So my paycheck next Wednesday is going to be slightly bigger. What to do with that paycheck, which will be roughly $220.00? There's a bike I want that's just less than $100.00 at Walmart. There's also the Film Appreciation textbook that's about the same price. That nearly wipes me out for that week.

The date of my next paycheck also happens to be the start of the 2009-10 high school sports season. As with last season, I will not be doing any kind of preseason previews for the teams (I don't have this time yet), but still able to do a few Conference Calls for Edgy, if he asks me to do these once again. I have to get the pick'em up by the 22nd, and put out a call for cybercasts from radio stations. As well as update the list of MLB Draftees.

I think what I'm going to do again for the football season is continuing the Weekly Observation piece (due Sunday), the Friday 5 (due Friday) and do an NISB Game of the Week or something, since I'm planning on getting Friday nights off. The GOTW is usually the "tiebreaker" game in the Pick'em. Hopefully I have a successful season this year, and nothing like last year.

So the schedule is set, for now.
