Rule of thumb: When something good happens, some bad is going to happen right around the corner. Or Vice versa. It works both ways. As I have mentioned before I got hired to work at Petco. I was supposed to be a dual associate. Meaning I would be a dog trainer and work the store. I have done all my in store training just need to do my dog training. But the thing is I have not gotten called in over a week. And whenever I call my boss he is just totally clueless and has no answers for me. Even though I am trained to work in the store, they really have no place for me until I can teach dog-training classes. Which I cannot do until I am trained to do so.
I am getting really irritated with this company. When Petco first called me in for an interview I was really excited because I really wanted an animal related job. When my boss was telling me about all the things I would get to lean and the benefits I would get I was really happy. I was originally suppose to get a full time position and make $9 per hours. Which is less then I made at the kennel but at least it wasn’t at the bottom. He hired me right there on the spot.
When I went in a week later the boss then went on to tell me that he could only afford to pay me $8.75. I was bummed but I quickly got over it. Then I found out it was only part time. This is also ok because I would have more time with Kooper. But he was talking twenty or less hours which is nothing.
So from the get go Its been nothing but crap from this company. Last I heard of them they told me they would call me back when they knew when I would start my dog training school.
So with all of that Robby and I thought it would be a good idea for me to look for another job just in case. So I applied at another pet store in the area. I have always liked that store. So I go in and talk to the manager and turn in a application. He calls me the next day for an interview for the following week. I call him back a couple hours later and he was already out for the day. So I waited yesterday for a call. And nothing…..Then I call again today and the manager is out yet again. What the heck? But the other manager calls me and sets me up with an interview. So we will see where that will lead me.
I have no clue if I even still have a job at Petco. We will see next week what happens with all of this. Who knows right? I remember I originally moved down here for a job at a ranch. That went out the window quickly…
Anyway at least there is some good. Kooper’s foot is better. Almost ready to be ridden again. Just needs his shoe out back on and he is ready to go. And as for my secret I mentioned the other day. She is doing good as well hehehe, Ill mention what she is on another day.
Even with all this crap happening I’m hanging in there. I am still really really homesick and miss my friends and family a lot! But my little blessing/secret brings out the better in me. That combined with one silly sweet horse and one hell of a boyfriend. Hopefully things will balance out over time.
