The Waiting Game

I read somewhere that we spend over 75% of our lives waiting on something.  Waiting in line at the gas station, a restaurant.  If you think about, it seems we are always waiting on something.

I went for the interview for the job I want and now the waiting has begun.  They didn't tell me when they were going to make their decision but I hope it's soon.  I don't mind factory work, but I would much rather be running a one gal office working for a really good boss.  Say a little prayer with me that I will know soon!!!

Factory Work

Working in an automotive factory is different from working in a sock mill in lots of ways and yet the same in other ways.  If you work production in a sock mill you are paid per dozen sock that you complete.  In an auto factory you are paid per hour to handle the parts that a robot makes.  Sometimes you are on what they term as a belt which means the parts are dropped onto and belt that brings the part to you.  Depending on the part as to the speed of the belt.  Sometimes it gets a little overwhelming!!!!  My son put it best it's not much different than running a line of knitting machines and just as soon as you get to one end and turn around every machine is lit up like a Christmas tree with something wrong with it.

I like my job for the most part, but say a little prayer!  My boss that I had before I left Alabama back in 2008, called yesterday and he has me an interview with his boss on Friday.   Hopeful I will get my old job back.  That would be fantastic!!  It's a one gal office, working for a great boss, with good pay and benefits!  Wish me luck.

New Job

I started a new job last night.  I am now working in the automotive industry.  Pay is good and the work is not to hard.  As long as my thumbs will hold out I will keep working there.   I never thought I would be back in a factory but here I am.  The best part is I won't have to clean up a bathroom after someone has pooped all over the walls!!!  The last couple of nights that I worked at the store I had to clean up some pretty disgusting stuff!!

Have a blessed day, I am still working third shift and need to take a nap.
