Fired?!?!

Hey All,

Well it’s official – I got fired from Tim Horton’s. It’s not so bad. Apparently I was "too slow" and "just not getting it" or something. Oh well. I guess I’m just not dexterous enough. I can think talk and type (for the most part) but I can’t seem to MAKE the orders quickly. I was quick at taking orders, just not at filling them. I have an interview tomorrow at the same call center that I had to decline back in December because of a schedule conflict (Pookie had a Dr.’s appointment at a place that was about a 2 hour drive away from us on the day that I was supposed to start training). I was basically a shoe-in after my interview the last time, so I should be able to get in this time. I guess I find out tomorrow when training and everything starts. I also realized that I think my panic at the last place was due to the fact that it was a 45 minute drive away from home… this place is downtown in the city I live, so it’ll take 20 – 30 minutes MAX on a bad day.

I guess this year is off to a good start. I mean, yeah I lost one job, but I’m going to get a better job with more hours. Next Friday I should have ultrasound pictures to show you all. Oh, and if it’s possible I *do* want to know whether I’m having a boy or a girl. I don’t expect I’ll be able to know next week (at 13 weeks), but the ultrasound after that (at 20 weeks) should be able to tell us.

Oh, and if any of you know any girl "E" names, I would love to hear them! So far I’ve thought of & like – the ones in bold are ones that I really like and are Irish or Celtic:

  • Emily (cousin’s name)
  • Erica (cousin’s name)
  • Ebony (but it doesn’t fit because we’re not dark!)
  • Eileen
  • Elaine
  • Eleanor
  • Elektra
  • Eliza
  • Elizabeth
  • Eloise
  • Emma
  • Erin*
  • Erlina*
  • Étaín*

Of course there are non-E names that I like, but I’d really like this one to have an E name… I guess if one with another letter really speaks to me (and Pookie):

  • Amelia
  • Aurora
  • Autumn
  • Chloe
  • Diana
  • Fauna
  • Jordana
  • Juliette
  • Katherine (although Pookie prefers *Catherine)
  • Morgana
  • Persephone

That’s all for now.

I got fired from there one time too. It doesn’t pay to make nicer cakes so that people ask for yours, when the assistant manager’s aren’t as nice. 🙂

Food service is really hard. I’ve been a cashier, and its really stressful. You have to be fast. I love Tim Hortons though.

If you want more e names, just put names beginning with e in your search engine. Make sure you have lots of time though. 🙂 Just don’t use a name where your child has to spell it for everyone all the time.

Ethne – it means “fire” in Gaelic.

Random noter from front page: Congrats on the pending addition to your family. I have an adorable niece named Ella. :o) It will be interesting if the local University goes on strike again before you give birth. Best wishes to you and your family.

emaan-faith enisa-good friend eshmaal-bunch of red roses all are arabic.what does persephone mean??

ryn: LOL! Umm, thanks? I really don’t need any tips on getting a girlfriend though. I could be engaged in less than 20 minutes and married this weekend if that’s what I wanted–but it’s not. I’ve never had trouble talking to/meeting girls though. I’m not quite sure you’ve been paying attention if you think I needed tips. 😉

ryn: lol, i’m just giving you a hard time. i thought it was funny was all. and for the record, that entry–and deciding that i need a girlfriend, is all tongue-in-cheek in the first place. i don’t really discuss my REAL personal life on OD

OMG sweetie! I’m so sorry! Jeez, you should come work at Matt’s store, they don’t fire anyone even if they are slower than a slug and I severely doubt you are THAT slow. Friggin’ jerks. >:[ RYN: Aww! 🙁 Idol is a big goof. He may look scary but he’s nothing but a big soft puppy at heart. I guess because I see his personality I don’t see anything scary about him. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body. 🙂

How about Elena or Eliana? Elena is one that I would love to name a little girl, but my husband has said no, so I named my car Elena (he doesn’t know though). RYN (on JaViMo)…music is a big part of my life, I associate music with a lot of people, that’s why I had a lot of videos on yesterdays prompt 🙂 There could’ve been a whole lot more if I had time and wasn’t sick.

Hey I thought I let you know I also use a chapter for my JaViMo so if you look under Mo~Mo~Mo in my chapters you will find mine..
