A Fresh Start
16 years ago
So I put in my work profile that I wanted to be a department head about a month ago. I decided I had gotten a little burnt out a work and wanted a change and a new challenge. I was tired of seeing things in departments that I wanted to change or fix but not having the time to do them due to conflicting time constraints with my current position.
About a week after putting in for it I was contacted by my former Department Head of Garden who had recently been promoted to an assistant manager at a different store. He informed me of a open position for the Garden Department at his store, which happened to be the position I was really going after.
At that time my current store manager said he'd like me to interview for a pposition within my own store before trying for one at another. I didn't press the issue, and after about a week I interviewed at my own store for the floor and wall department head position. I -sucked- on that interview. Didn't get it and after about a week my store maager finally gave the okay for me to interview at the other store since the position was still available.
I did pretty good at the interview, even with the other assistant manager at that store firing off questions at me. Slightly intimidating.
Anyway, I got the cal back today that the job is mine, we just need to figure out what my last day at my current store will be. With inventory coming up I dan't thing I'll be able to transer for another three weeks. Which is cool.
I'm really excited though. I so ready for a new challenge. The commute is about three times as far but luckily there's a highway that helps speed that up. only will put about another 10 minutes on my driving.
