so i moved out here december 30th... its now the end of may. amazingly, my girlfriend and i are still not at each others throats and we still look forward to our evenings together... crazy!
so on the relationship front, everything is great... now job wise... not quite.
for those that i haven't talked to in a while, i left the suit place... they were trying to make myself and the other assistant manager fill in for the manager since she left... but without any mention of financial compensation. so basically, having us run the store for hardly more than minimum wage... screw that... add to it the fact that my co-manager decided to take a power trip and claim i was somehow trying to steal his job away from him... so i walked out... literally. told him he can be manager and gave him my keys to the store. haven't been back since.
now i just got off the phone with the owner of a company here in town where he was offering me a position with them that could have been fun and also made me some contacts in the hospitality industry... i turned him down. instead, i'm going to keep doing roofing with a friend of a friend. i feel like i'm not doing something to my potential at all... but i can't seem to find something that is that actually seems more enjoyable or more financially lucritive. this job i was offered was setting up accomodations and (golf) tee times for some corporate and private clients... kinda neat since i love golf and travel... but i was going to make the same amount of money weekly as roofing but having to work a minimum of 5 hours more per week. plus, its kinda nice to be outside...
so how dumb am i to not take the sure job?... the one with set hours, set pay, set location...? instead, i'm never sure my hours or where i'm working, i definitely am at a higher risk of hurting myself... i feel almost embarassed to tell my family and friends that i'm roofing...
so what i need are some people to either tell me i'm dumb and should call this guy at the golf place back, or that i'm better off roofing... we'll do a poll!
