So, almost two months ago I started my new job. And shortly after starting this job I tried to quit at Banana Republic, because originally I was told the only way I could stay on the schedule there and not work Monday-Friday was to leave my Saturday and Sunday completely open. Which led to working 13 days straight when I returned to work after the wedding. Not cool.

So I talked to my manager and told him I was going to have to quit because this shit was bananas. Because my manager loves me, he didn't want me to quit so we worked out an alternative: I take Saturdays off, leave my Sundays free, and then set my availability for three four hour shifts at night during the week, say from six until ten. Since the last shift currently ends at nine and they aren't scheduling shifts shorter than four hours, I'll still be on the schedule and technically fulfilling my availability requirements, but I won't have to worry about being scheduled until summer.

I guess by "summer" he meant "April 2nd" because on Thursday I'm working from 6 until 10. After working from 10-5:30 at the real job.

If the stores hours have changed, I really might have to quit for real, because I don't think my sanity can handle 12+ hour days.

Something about Reese Witherspoon (whom I omg!love) giving the Vulcan salute...and apparently Star Trek is one of the big summer films she's looking forward to...I'm in love.

Hopefully going to see her new movie (Monsters vs. Aliens) tomorrow. I've heard some mixed reviews on it, but there's also the major plus that (apparently) she plays a kick ass woman who can take care of herself and isn't the love interest/damsel in distress. Also there's supposed to be plenty of homages to old school horror films. And Stephen Colbert is president. Really really want to see it, but it may end up being a rental.
