Ooookay so probably I should update this because I know that last post was pretty pitiful.
Weirdly enough, the job at Bubba Gump is my salvation right now. It's hard work and long hours with not much in the way of breaks, but the other people there are so great that I always come home in a fantastic mood. I'm making a teeny bit more than minimum wage anyway, but my job consists of four different positions, and the other day I was scheduled as a "tablesetter" and learned that that meant I could pick up my share of the tips the next day... I now have $66 in cash in an envelope... from one shift! Plus I should be getting my check from the stupid cinema job today maybe. I'm still behind on two of my student loan payments, but now it looks like I'll be able to swing it, and by next month I should be doing just slightly better than breaking even.
I'm ridiculously busy and my feet hurt all the time but I'm trying to keep it together as best I can. Things are looking up, though. And I do want to try to stick it out here at least through November, maybe the end of next January if I can swing it just so it's a full year. Obviously I'm hoping that damn American version of MOR gets its ass over here before I have to pack up and go.
