Jobs

So my potential raise turned out to be complete and utter crap. Although my wage has been 'increased' it will really hardly make a difference. A more positive person would likely see it as "something is better than nothing." However, in my opinion I was royally screwed by my company. I was promised something, I did what I needed to do to recieve that something, and then they pulled it away from me and told me I'm getting promoted soon anyways, so I'm not getting it. It's a joke.

The whole company is starting to wear on me. I think the only reason that I've stayed as long as I have is because I like to help people and my manager is also a friend. Currently, that doesn't feel like enough to bother staying. So... I've applied for some new jobs, and will continue to do so for the next little while. In search of something that may pay me enough so that I might be able to have something slightly resembling a 'grown up' life. Like owning a car.... being able to buy things without having to worry about if some crisis comes up (ie. my cat gets sick and needs to go to the vet).

I've been feeling very bitter ever since I found out about the measley raise. I applied to work at the Clinique counter today ... maybe that will pan out, it seemed like the lady who took my resume was pretty stoked on me.

Frigging Jobs.
