So irritated!

I was supposed to start a new job today. Not a great job, but an ok one... At least it's a job! And it's actually a job I would have loved. It just didn't pay that great... but any pay is better than nothing!

This job has been lined up for a month. I got an e-mail last night, at 9pm, minutes after walking in the door from a 12 hour drive home from Utah, saying "Sorry for not calling. I couldn't remember if you were supposed to start tomorrow and I lost your number. My business partner and I decided we can't afford to hire you. Please don't come in tomorrow." ... from the owner of the place I was supposed to work. (It ended in a pleasant way. The owner of this business is actually a very pleasant person and I'm purposefully not saying much about the business because I'm not here to bad mouth anyone or cause any kind of negative business repercussion for this place. I would never want to do that. I'm just expressing my frustration for my personal situation regarding the matter)

Seriously!? Who does that!? The day before a person is supposed to start! You couldn't remember what day I was supposed to start? And you lost my number? It is definitely on a resume, that I definitely sent you. And definitely offered to give you a hard copy of when we met for an interview. Ugh! .... SO unprofessional! ... And now I'm back to square one. With no job!!! (Well, I kind of have this other thing in the works. But I'm not counting that until it pays... which it may or may not)

And I screwed myself, because I quit a job as a server at a restaurant to pursue other better more consistent higher paying things.... Turns out there is nothing better! Ha! I seriously underestimated how few jobs are available! I also quit another job that was horrible... but it paid! Again, underestimated how few jobs are available. I said to myself "no big. I'm going crazy here and I know I can find something else in no time" ... Yeah right!

THIS IS SO IRRITATING!!!!

It feels so out of character for me to get so riled up. I feel like I can't leave it on that note. I'm far too upbeat for my own good. I can't even end one blog post about a totally crappy thing that happened to me on a bad note. lol. Whatever.... this is where that favorite saying of mine comes in.... I guess it's just not that serious.

So here's something fun to end with: My awesome trip to Utah! I love Utah... I know that's not exactly the most popular opinion to hold, but whatever. I've always loved it. And I had a GREAT time!

I haven't put the pictures on my computer yet... I'll do that soonish and do a longer post all about my great trip to Utah (although I think most of the people that read this blog will know about my trip already because most of the people that read this blog live in Utah! Haha)

For now the idea of the mountains will have to be a cheery enough note to end on :)

***Actually, at the last minute I've decided to end on a different note. I'm sitting in bed with my laptop writing this post. It's pretty late, but my husband and I are night owls. Most of the lights are on in the house. The TV is on in the living room. My husband came in here just to sit next to me for a minute. He was talking to me and playing around... and minutes later he's passed out. This boy can fall asleep so easily! In any situation. Hilarious. I don't know how he does that! He's totally passed out... snoring and all. Silly boy ***
