I've got a job!

I had an interview on Tuesday and have just found out that I have a job. It's not a great job (retail) or great money, but it's better than nothing. And for a time I've been feeling that I need to do something to get some money of my own and to get me get me out of the house.

I'm going to be working at the BX in their clothing department (for you non-military types that's the Base Exchange, a department store on Air Force bases). I've never done anything like this before, never worked in retail, so it's going to be a whole new experience. One I'm both looking forward to and dreading. I also swore years ago that I would never work for AAFES (the company that operates the BX and several other military stores and facilities), but they are pretty much the only outlet for employment over here.

It's a temporary/parttime job, but the HR person seemed pretty confident that it will turn permanent in a few months. We'll see...I may like the fact that it's only temp. *g*

Yay! I know we talked about you working there. Heheee... the BX, not bad. Do you get an extra discount on things for working there?

I think it will be great for you for the reasons you said and just to meet more folks. *Hugs*

Hehehe...I don't know about a discount yet, but given this is AAFES if there is one, it's probably not very great!

*hugs*
