Summa jobs

I love summer. And I love Texas. I love summer in Texas. I am having so much fun! It is amazing having my mom here so that I can go hang out with her whenever I want! We went shopping last night at Ann Taylor Loft and Ann Taylor using my discount and got TONS of cute things. Shhh...don't tell Tyler. Ha ha. I had an interview at Nordstrom yesterday so I'm hoping I get a job there too! It's a huge 3 story Nordstrom in Dallas at the Galleria, and it's the biggest in Texas. The department I interviewed for was The Individualist. They sell expensive designers like Ellie Tahari and Nanette Lepore. The manager was really nice and I'm excited about it! Magic Johnson's wife has a new line of jeans that the department just started carrying, so Magic Johnson and his wife are coming on August 1st to promote the jeans! The manager said that since this Nordstrom is such a big one they always have appearances by designers. How fun!

Well, it's another gorgeous day in Texas. I have been amazed at how mild the weather has been so far! It's perfect. I know within the next couple weeks it will get ridiculously hot but for now it is awesome! Well, I'm heading to the gym, then perhaps the pool, then work at Loft. See ya!

Fort Worth Zoo with Mom and Kate!

Me, my mom and Katelyn went to the Fort Worth Zoo on Memorial Day and it was so much fun! We got there at about noon and stayed 'til 5. We took a break for lunch around 3 and had delicious Panera bagels. It's a workout walking around the zoo....I loved every minute! We went and got a snow cone afterward and it was delish as always. We watched the Bachelorette that night...it was such a great day! :)

Guess where I'm going tomorrow?

My new job rocks. All the ladies I work with are so great and nice. I used my discount today and bought some cute things with the money that Grannybird gave me for graduation :) Ashley is here visiting in TX til Sunday and we went to get a snow cone at Bedford Snoballs last night! The couple that owns it and works there let us try their new creation - Nerdles. Ha ha I loved it. It's a mix of 8 flavors that taste like Nerds, and then topped with a sprinkle of Nerds.

Did I mention I love summer?

Got the job!

I got the job at Ann Taylor Loft and I get a great discount...so hopefully I actually make money at this job! Ha ha. Tyler and I went to my mom's house for dinner last night and it was SO good. We had watermelon, corn on the cob, ceasar salad and sweet and sour chicken with rice. Plus chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. We went on a fun walk to the park because the weather here in Texas is absolutely gorgeous. There has been no humidity and it's in the 70s. It's so nice! I layed out by the pool today and I was in heaven. I'm loving Texas!

Job Update

So, I quit that horrible job and have applied at a few new places. Ann Taylor Loft, Nordstrom, and Banana Republic. Nordstrom said they were going through applications today and that they would call me and I had an interview with Ann Taylor today which went well, so we will see! I went to get a snow cone with my mom last night for the first time of the summer and Al's Snowballs is still amazing. Creamy coconut...yummo! We watched the season finale of Grey's Anatomy and then I caught up on a few of the episodes I missed on abc.com. I highly recommend that show if you are seeking a fabulous drama-filled hour or two.

More updates soon. It's like 2 in the morning and I got up cause I couldn't sleep but I think I'm ready to catch some zzzz's now.

Worst Job EVERRRRRR

So...I HATE my new job. It is the worse job in the entire world and especially serving. I had to work today, SUNDAY, for Mother's Day because it was supposed to be "SOOO BUSY" but it wasn't hardly busy at all. I got a two table section since I'm new. PLEASE. I'm used to serving 20 people in one party. I had 6 tables ALL night. That's from 3 pm until 10 pm, people. I made 40 dollars, which calculates to be $5.50 an hour. Oh, did someone forget to mention to me that I'm a slave now having to work for under minimum wage? Not to mention there were SEVENTEEN servers on tonight. Are you kidding me? The most we ever had at Ruby River was 12. Why? So the people working can ACTUALLY MAKE MONEY. Oh yeah...that's why we have jobs. To make money. Every server was bored, so I asked my manager why not let some people go so that the people that were there could make some money..."No, you cannot leave until your scheduled time to leave." adlkfjaldkjflkdsaJF;LKADJS!!!!! I just about died. This job is seriously a joke. A JOKE. It was boring, ridiculous, and didn't make any logical sense at all. The management is HORRIBLE. The servers all smoke and drink and say the "F" word in every other sentence. Kill me now.

I'm quitting tomorrow.
