"McDonalds, Kim speaking."

"Hey Kim, it's Josh."

"Hey, what's up?"

"I was calling to see if you had written up the schedule for next week."

"Not yet, why? Do you need a day off?"

"Well actually, I don't think you should put me on at all."

"Why not?"

"I got another job."

And that is that. No longer am I chained to the shitty world of McDonalds Corporation.

Granted, I am still in food service, but at least it's a step up from where I used to be. My new job takes me to the weird and zany (?) world of Quizno's subs. I got called back for the second interview today, and after quite a bit of haggling, I think I came out on top. They wanted to start me at minimum wage, but since I make nearly a dollar than that already, I refused. So in the end I got them to agree to give me fifty cents less than what I make currently, but with the promise of a fifty cent raise in a month, followed by another fifty cent raise in two months. So I will end up making more than what I make right now.

And in order to compensate for the decrease, I made him put in writing that I would work at least thirty-five hours a week. He told me he'd probably be able to give me fourty plus overtime, which is a concept I never heard of at McDonalds.

So, the thirtieth of Septembre is my last day there. Then I will start working at my new job on the third. I didn't want to work on Kent's…. I don't know what you call it. Anniversary of Death? Whatever. I didn't want to work then, so I get a two day break before I have to start.

Now let's see how they take the news of my immediate departure tomorrow.
