And the Hits keep coming

Maybe in my past life i was a fighter, a fighter who knows how to take the punches without going down.

My dad and I's favorite sport is boxing. Yes i know a weird thing for a girl to like, but seeing to men trapped in this ring, fighting not to win but for pride and honor almost is just amazing. My favorite boxer is Wladmir Klitschcko, 1) becuase he's hot 2) but he's a great fighter. The problem with him though is that he has a weak chin, so whenever someone punches him, he's out. They say he has no heart just punch. His brother on the other hand Vitali, is not as strong but has the heart and a stronger chin then his younger and thus he is victorous. The point of this really weird comparison is that though i may not have punch, i have a whole lot of heart, and maybe with that i will be victorious.

I GOT FIRED

Now before we get all crazy, and yes the thought in my mind too, can this day get any worse, i have thought this over.

As i was leaving a episode of Oprah, and wondering what the hell i was going to do, i made my way to work. A short 5minute oridnary walk to my hell. On my way, i always look up at this DVD exchange place and wonder what they sell in there, like if the old DVD's are a dollar or by luck they would sell decent DVD's for 1.

Anyway as soon as i walk in my job, i notice that there is like 3 new people working. Busily moving around and being productive. I think it's weird since no one mention they were hiring new people. As soon as i walk in "dude who made me coffee" and also known as my Assistant Manager says we need to talk. Seriously at this moment i didn't think i was getting fired. But as we sit down in the window seat and he takes about 5 minutes to say something, all while giving me this puppy dog face. I kind of new that i was being canned

Coffee Dude: I like you
Beckett: [silence]
CD: But you can only still work M, T, TH
Beckett: pretty much, i have classes and clubs(and shows to watch)
CD: we need people who will work full time
Beckett: [silence]
CD: And you are a really cool girl, hella funny...
Beckett:[what is this my eulogy]
CD: But i don't think this is going to work out.

For a split second i was sad, and then i thought "WAIT I HATE THIS JOB"
So i give my little pout, stare off in the distance and listen to him ramble on about how cool of a person i am.

Thoughts that were going through my mind:
1) A dollar for a DVD is really cheap.
2) I could use a cafe right about now
3) Mmmm...Burrito
4) Cute dude with glasses eats in here
5) My lips are so chaped right now, would licking them at this moment seem inappropiate
6) Big Brother is a show that somehow i watch though it frustrates me. FRIENSHIP ALLIANCE FOREVER.

Just random stuff. After his whole speech, we shake hands, which i think is just weird for a boy to do who has picked me up before. I return all my stuff except of course for my shirt, and head out. Before i do he says that he hopes to see me around the place more often. I tell him i only eat Cold Sandwiches.

On the way back to my dorm, still not knowing how i took the news, i see the boy i have become friends with while i worked there. I tell him the whole thing, and he seems mad that they let me go, i hope we keep in touch and see each other around.

Left and right i am getting all these punches. And apparently i have a lot of heart, because it hasn't crushed me completely. I manage time and time again to rise to the occassion, and though i am battered and torn i am still here, and still fighting.

So now i am jobless, and have no money. Though i am still going to the movies on Wednesday. I can get more involved in the Pre-med community. Seeing that there are two meetings tomorrow that i will attend.

What makes me mad though is that they hired me knowing what i could work. B/c of that i gave up a job at the hospital which paid 17.5/hr just for me to work Friday. I felt like they wasted 5 weeks of my time, to just can me b/c school is more important than that job. I'm exicted about the free time and such, not that i know what to do with myself now, but i felt i could have been useful somewhere else that has more to do with my major, than at a sandwhich place that didn't want me.

Goodbye to fries, oil, washing dishes, cooler, the boss, scrubbing,heat, customers who don't know what they want so they make you wait for like 15minutes before they order, mopping, sweeping, burning my fingers, smelling like onion and fries at school, standing around wondering what to do next, chopping, and boredom,

I will miss the french boy and the other boy who i have seen around a lot. He's into computers and Chemistry. I suck at both. I will miss working with Jay, and hearing him complain more than i do. I will miss my free meal.
