Trying to find a different job is annoying.
So I work at a place making $14.50, the normal amount for jobs over here is $13. At first I was working for $13 but I got a promotion. Well, I find out from someone else who works there, they make a few cents less than I do without a promotion(this is why it's important to talk about salary, they are the one who brought it up first). They also did me a solid though and told me that a place around me was hiring for $16. 985
I apply that night and a week later I get a text and a call. Unfortunately since I was at work, I miss the call but I reply to the text as soon as I'm able to and I leave a voicemail. Then the next day the coworker who works at the place(only spending a little time at the 1ts job) says that the store is over staffed.
I'm sad by that information and the fact that it's been a few days and I haven't heard back from the hiring manager. But it's making me realize that if the current job I have paid me more, I wouldn't mind working there. But if I'm making crappy pay and have people who are working there doing less but making more, I don't want to be there.
Still applying to other places, I don't think I'll get $16 but even if it's $14 but less intensive then it's fine by me. 814
