Still not working out well

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

I’m afraid that things are not working out well in my job at my local pharmacy.  They are not training me to learn the things that I need to learn in order to pass the CBL tests that they make me take, so I flunk the tests.  I’ve never flunked a test in my life, so it is quite disturbing!  I don’t understand why they think I can pass a test based on training I’m not getting!  If I ask them for training I get a lot of resistance.

Almost everyone there skips their breaks, and they get mad at me when I ask permission to take my break.  I’m entitled to my breaks and I need them!

The redeeming part of this job is that when I DO take breaks in the employee break room I sit with other employees from other departments and have a lot of nice visits.  I enjoy those people a lot!

Biker Gear

Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

DH recently bought a Harley Davidson Motorcycle, (which I am convinced he loves more than me! LOLOL – after all, he carpeted the garage to park his bike, and he cleans it after every ride!)  He is constantly talking about buying a new leather jacket, new gloves, and new leather “stuff” for riding his bike.  With Christmas season coming up in a few weeks, I will be thinking about HD stuff to give him for gifts.  I just stumbled across this website that sells leather biking “stuff” for great prices.  A variety of jackets, gloves, gear bags, chaps, boots, vests, wallets….  so I just might be buying some stuff for his Christmas gifts from them!

Redecorating guest bedroom soon

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

A few weeks ago my SIL sent us a gift from where she is stationed overseas – a very beautiful burgundy & gold tablecloth.  I couldn’t figure out where to put it for a while, but it eventually ended up in the guest bedroom.  Now I need to re-do the window treatment to make the room look nicer.
