I have job hunting since the start of April. I loved my job at the Chiropractic office. I loved the two girls I worked with; they became two of my closest friends. But I absolutely HATED my boss. I cannot explain how much I hated going to work everyday, not because of the work I was doing, but because he was going to be there. I have never met a person who is so prideful, self-righteous and just plain rude. He did every little manipulative thing to make my life miserable. But, I am not going to waste my time writing about this man. I just wanted to say why I was looking for a different job. And I looked, and I looked, and I looked. I applied to at least 40 different job postings that I would look at everyday and I only heard back from a handful. I cannot believe how bad the job market is right now, especially in Logan. Then, by chance, I looked at a job website that I hardly ever looked at but decided too last Monday and saw a position for a Receptionist at a Insurance Company and it came with better pay, closer to our house, & BENEFITS. It sounded like the dream job since we are paying up the butt for insurance right now. I have had plenty of experience as a receptionist so I decided to apply. I got a called that same day and they asked me to come in for an interview Tuesday. I did and I felt SO good not only about the interview, but about the job position itself as well as the Office Manager I interviewed with. I got a call back for a 2nd interview Wednesday, went to it, felt even better about it and then went home and got called an hour after I was home saying that I was picked for the position. I was SO relieved and so excited. During these two days, I had strep throat and felt absolutely HORRIBLE! But, I bucked up for those 2 interviews and obviously it paid off. But since I had strep throat, I wasn't at work for Wednesday or the first 1/2 of Thursday. So once I found out on Wednesday about my new job, I decided to stick out the afternoon on Thursday so I could give my boss my 2 weeks notice. So I went and told my boss as soon as I got to work, and him being the loser that he is, he was ticked that I was quitting and he just let me go that same day. WHAT A JERK. But, it actually turned out great because now......
Brett and I are going to California so Brett can have some dental work done for free (thanks to his amazing uncle who is a dentist) and so we can play for a few days in the sun and just get away. We are going to San Franciso!!!!!! I cannot wait. We have needed a little getaway from life and this is the perfect time, especially since I have no job to worry about until my start date of August 3rd. So it will be fun to play at the Beach, see the Golden Gate Bridge, go to China town, walk around the city and just be together. We are driving though, so we will definitely need to go and get some good books on tape.Also, these last couple of weekends we have been down in Salt Lake with our families chilling and hanging out. We had a homemade sushi night to celebrate my mom's 50th birthday a week ago (YUM! Delicious!) And just yesterday we played at my mom's and had a picnic from Zupas, played water volleyball in my mom's pool, and had a campout in the backyard and played games. I cannot express how blessed I feel to have such an amazing mom who does so much for us kids. She is absolutely incredible. I am so grateful we live close enough that we can all go over to her house and just hang out together and have fun. I have the best family in the world!!! So anywho, it was a blast couple of weekends with them.
Life really is so great. Especially right now. Things have really fallen into place for us and I am just so grateful that I got this new job that will help our finances and help me not to go crazy like my other boss did. I am really excited for it and cannot wait to get started. So, the next time I blog we will be back from Cali, I am sure that post will have dozens of pics. But for now, here is a few from the last week......
