Job Seekers Unite

So, the ad for my replacement here at work was posted in the Register this past Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I can't begin to tell you how much FUN it is (seriously, fun!) to watch people come in and apply for your job. ESPECIALLY those who are brave enough to ask why I'm being replaced!! The plether of people has astounded me. It's not even 10 and we've already had about 15-20 applicants this morning. (plus the 40 some we received Friday & Saturday). The applicants are very diverse too. We have had men and women, and the age range has gone from 18 to over 70. Today is the last day we are accepting applications, mostly because of the volume we've already received and the amount of time left (ideally they will start next Monday so I can spend a week training them). The funniest part to me is the paper states "no calls" and we've had at least 2 dozen phone calls!! HELLO!!!!! I guess it goes to show the state of the economy right now, especially the local economy.

Honeymoon

So, our honeymoon plans have changed drastically over the past month or so.  We started with a week long Bahama's cruise.  After contemplating my possible lack of ability to handle being "trapped" on a boat for extensive periods of time, we decided we would just fly to Nassau directly, and we chose a  beautiful resort with a room with a gorgeous view!!  We've been excited about that, but the more we discussed it, spending that much on the honeymoon just doesn't make a lot of sense right now (even though it'd be fantastic.)
So...our new plan....We are going to spend the 1st three nights at Kalahari, with a nice suite and huge waterpark to our disposal (and the arcade, which I'm the most excited about :P).  Then on Tuesday we are going to drive to Nauvoo and stay at a nice bed & breakfast and take a couple days to tour the sites, and drive back either Friday or Saturday.  He has to be back to work on Sunday, and I'll start my new job on Monday the 12th.  I'm pretty excited about this new plan, I've never been Nauvoo and I think it will be fun to experience together.

Sound Off

This post is not chipper, in the least bit, so please stop reading if my rant may offend you.  

I'm tired, very tired, of people who make commitments they never had any intention of keeping in the first place, and then find a way to weasel out at the last minute so then I get stuck cleaning it up yet again!!  I'm tired of people who use way poor excuses to not do what they know they should be doing.  I'm tired of having a personality that doesn't let me just tell a person off when I want to so badly because I think they are RIDICULOUS!  Most of all, I'm tired of other people's sins, other people's poor choices, having such an impact on my life that instead of this being the happiest time of my life they are bringing me down with them!  I'm tired of it ALL.  I'm SO DONE.  

Merry Christmas!
