Well, let's post something a bit more cheerful, eh?

So, this past Tuesday, I went in for orientation and training at a brand new super-Kroger store opening up in a few weeks. Yes, I got a job. Granted, as a bagger, but still! Job!

I went in, sat though some boring computer forms (which I still need to finish some of those), and some classes, that made me feel like I was back in high school. For lunch, they gave up salad and veggie wraps, of which I ate none of, since I hate eating veggies. So I made due with a bag of chips and soda.

As I was leaving, though, one of the managers there approached me. This is the convo.

(Girl) You're Ricky, right?
(Me) Yes ma'am?
(Girl) Bagger for store #514?
(Me) *nods*
(Girl) We're in need of someone to work produce, and you look like someone who'd like to do that. Interested?
(Me) Um...sure?
(Girl) Great! I'll talk with your store manager, and we'll get everything set up!

...fastest...promotion...ever.

So I went in today to take a course in food prep, and once I finish up some last bit of forms on Friday, I'm done. I officially work for Kroger.

Now, I know some of you are thinking "grocery store?! How mundane!". But, y'know what? I like working mundane. Not much thinking involved, and I can contemplate more kink-filled ideas for most of you.
