Lucky number eight?
Eight years since the first day I met Carl. It's odd as the day went by and we didn't say a word about it. It sure has been one pretty bumpy ride for us. We've had better days so at this moment it would be hard to celebrate.
Today was my last day of on-the-job learning for school, the next time I go back will be for my last internship. As much as I ADORE this workplace, I don't know if I will go back. It's hurtful to think like this but frankly they can't promise me a job at the end and this was the goal all along. It's hard to believe that I might not work with these guys again, I have had the time of my life there. My supervisor was funny and I could almost call him a great friend if we had met under other circumstances, he was genuinely nice and very encouraging while I was learning there. I wish I could stay there and get paid though. LOL!
It's like the end of a dream in some sort, I have known since day one that a job there would be hard to come by. Still, I went in at every scheduled shift I had and even went in a for more extra days too. I love it there, the people are nice and I actually feel like a person there, not just a mom or girlfriend but an actual human being.
So back to school I go, tomorrow morning is computers... we are learning wordperfect.... which I have known for the past ten years... then it will be an afternoon of english. Why did the lab training have to end? Ugh! Only 10 more days of school until my 2nd internship, then it is OVER!!! WOW!!! It'll be a tough ride 'til the end though.
