I Got A Job

01 Jul

Posted by Naresh as Personal

After being unemployed for nearly a month, I finally got a new job. I’m working night shifts at a gas station about a block away from my house. Here’s a picture of my new job from Google Street View:

I worked yesterday afternoon and now understand how to use the register, and have started memorizing prices of the unmarked items (drinks, chips, cigarettes, etc). I also stocked the soda cooler yesterday.

Anyway, it’s time for me to go to bed. It’s only 7:30 AM, but I have to work from 9PM to 6AM tonight. I’ll see you around!

Congratulations on getting the job … sounds like a tough thing to be working all night, but I’ll bet you meet some interesting “characters”.

Good luck, hope it goes well.

Haha, I will meet some interesting people. It’s right next to a strip club, and strippers come in very often.

Thanks

One of my first jobs in high school was working overnight at a gas station. I worked from 10pm to 7:30am which wasn’t that bad, then went to school until 2:30pm and then slept until work. Working overnight when it is slow allowed plenty of time for homework back then. You will be amazed at the type of people out and about at 2-3am even during the week. One tip is to stay as busy as you can (for me night shift had to do all the stocking and putting up the truck, so it was kinda easy). With it being slower and no sun outside it can seem like time just drags. Congrats on the job.
