3rd Week of Travel - Almost Done! YAY!

[Deleted]

Being an unsociable person, I hate traveling.  Being down in the "city" for three weeks is a LONG dang time to be away from the homestead and living out of a suitcase.  

I am getting ready to shower and travel back down this morning. But, I keep reminding myself that this is my LAST week to deal with hotels and training.

Next Monday I start running my local store and I am really looking forward to it!

While I am personally against predatory lending, the job itself is good and most of our customers seem to be nice about coming in. I have only had one "yeller" in the last week.    Working is working, so I don't really care about the interest rates and all that.  I figure people are adults and can make their own choices.

The company pre-paid my hotel rooms, and will reimburse me (eventually, I understand) for my food. They pay up to $23 a day, but I am always under $10 because I just don't have a lot of cash. This week I am going down with about $50 and it just has to last.  I get paid on Monday - FINALLY!  YAY!  

They also pay my driving time down to their location and the $0.57 per mile as well.

I called my mom the first week I was down there and asked for a loan.  I had planned on freelancing in the evenings but I am 1. exhausted after being on my feet all day, and 2. I worked some long days with overtime, and I just haven't had the time to dedicate to it.  

Anyway, that's how the jobber is going. I seem to be doing a good job and they are happy to have me.  I am enjoying being out of the house and around humans again. But, it will be nicer when I can sleep in my own bed, with my doggies, every night.

Keep moving, 1 step at a time you will get there.

Nice on the mileage reimbursement, ours is only $0.52/mile.

Good luck!
