I quit!!!

I did something that I have never done before last Sunday. I walked out of my job (at the gym) and quit. Didn’t plan on it. I actually enjoyed working at the Fitness Center and really enjoyed having a free membership. Plus I have a lot of friends that work there, but new managment royally sucks. They decided to do something with my hours without asking me and it really made me mad. When I tried to talk to them about it, they kept giving me lame excuses for doing what they did, and when I would not accept their lame excusses, they pulled out the complaint card on me (soooo untrue! and BS), but could not tell me what kind of complaints were said about me (soooo double BS!). Suprisingly, I felt so much better after I did that. And, even though I miss going there to work out and hanging out with my friends, I am glad that I did it. And I know that it made my boss mad, because I am the only person there on Sundays, so when I left there was no one there to cover the desk. So he had to come in and finish up my shift. Ha Ha ;-)

My other two jobs are going great, though. I have been picking up a ton of hours. Last week I worked 74 hours just EMS (plus 4 hours at the fitness center). I have even been broken from being scared of the haunted base. Seems like they like to schedule me there a lot. The first two nights I worked there, the partner that I was working with babied me and he slept in the living room with me. He slept on the recliner, and I slept on the couch. The first night, I was terrified, and I swear that I heard footsteps. But the last three nights that I have spent there, I have had a different partner and he refused to sleep in the living room with me. He even made me sleep in Millie’s (the ghost’s)  room. I had to sleep with the door open and the hall light on, but I survived and didn’t hear any crazy noises. (people say they hear screams, footsteps, cupboard doors open and shut. also that doors open and shut and lights turn on and off by themselves.) The story is that someone (Millie) killed themselves in the house before it was bought by EMS. There is even a bullett hole in the fireplace in the living room. It is kind of freaky, but I am getting used to the idea of sleeping there now. I still don’t like the idea of sleeping in a haunted place, but I can deal with it.

    way to go for quitting - especially since you are working so many hours anyway - way to stand up for yourself.

    also - I am very impressed with the bravery of sleeping in a haunted house - I would be really scared and have to leave the lights on too.
