Re: Leaving bronze (or newbie!) status
I'm scared of her though, she's....of color, and might know people.. I'm not racist, promise. Just a smart ass.
That's what I was thinking. Then I found a recipe for a pumpkin bread pudding. then I found one for a sweet potato bourbon cake. Now I'm looking at a pumpkin spice cake. So many yummy options!!
Hmm. Not good when people know people. Hopefully she'll just slow her roll.
I posted a clicky poll on what's cooking for this decision.
I feel SO bad....
The "good" group of us stylists were hanging in the break room and talking about...idont remember, but it had to do with making$xxxx per paycheck. & I said, "oh thats not much more than we get paid."
They both responded.. "WHO ARE YOU 'BLOWING(lol)?" Then I gave the range os my paychecks (bad idea) & apparently I make a couple hundred dollars more then the "head stylist", who gets paid more. We work the same amount of hours
He walked out and jokingly said "oh we arent friends now."
The other stylist let me know he has NEVER had a check over $xxx.
Now I feel horrible for even saying anything. I thought they were making tons more than me.
Stupid stupid stupid.
ps, pay attn to the amount of x's. lol.
That sucks. I hate being in a situation like that.
Just a minor warning...a lot of companies have a rule about discussing how much you make with coworkers.
On a personal note, this is exactly WHY I don't discuss pay (or finances for that matter) with anyone. I found out that a chick I used to work with made slightly more than me even though she was hired after me and had ZERO experience. I was pissed. Whatever. It's not a forever job.
My mom makes Hello Dollies. They are TO DIE FOR. She leaves out the nuts.
Sry I couldnt respond to the PM, my phone & the ipad dont like PMs.
Omg, my sister just informed me that she may, or may not be pregnant again....
If she is, I call dibs. TOTALLY NOT FAIR.
Soooo....do you have wheels??
I'm happy and sorry at the same time.

I like the "Deck the Halls, Y'all" one.
(That's "I don't know what to say...I'm stunned!") I think being preg with a basically brand new baby at home sounds awful. However, I feel like crap today so I'm a bit biased.
My nephews are less than 16 months apart. It was pretty rough. They're growing us as best friends, but I think it was pretty exhausting for my SIL.
Today sucks. I'm not sure if something I've been working on at work is going to happen (which sent me into tears), a friend's sister was just diagnosed with breast cancer, another friends grandmother was just cleared from breast cancer a month ago, now they think it has taken over her whole body (possible hospice situation), another friend that's about to get divorced found out things about her hubby that he's been doing, the list just goes on and on. BLAH.
