Another job offer

So I got a call this morning based on an old application. Local store wants to hire me for deli work. It’d be tough, on my feet a lot.

Not sure if I can do it, but I may try. Then I’ll have 2 jobs!

Cool that it’s local; I did deli work back in college for a winter break. I had a positive experience. At Shop Rite.

This was back when I thought yellow and white American cheese were different things.

I recall I also I sliced Prosciutto like logs;?the first time.

Another time I had an irate customer bc I staggered his cheese instead of stacking it.

Quite cool though if you are on Main Street…

Instead of 2 jobs, can’t you just pick the job you like better and work more hours?

More like undead wiseguys.

Awkward when you buy sausage and it won’t quit wriggling.

Or maybe not.

:blush:

That’s what I was thinking of - the dead guy who hands Christopher the meat, or Big Pus as a talking, dead fish.

If you do decide to keep 2 jobs definitely look out for burnout. I was doing it for 10 months and It eventually made me spiral and I had to quit one of the jobs

No, I can’t get more hours at the library. Summer program I get extra hours, but that only lasts 6 weeks. Rest of the year I only get 5 hours a week. I won’t quit, though.

The deli job will just be an extra.

Grats on the offer and best of luck deciding whether to take it! I’ve done deli work before. Definitely demanding but not bad once you get used to it.

Thanks. I hope not, too. I really want to do well at both, IF I do take the deli job.

I’ll be making all sorts of stuff from doughnuts to pizza logs and subs.

Seems like a little overwhelming to me. You can try it and see. I don’t know what your symtoms are like. I wish the best for you. You don’t have to say what your symtoms are like because you are a moderator.

I don’t mind. I’m pretty open about my sza.

I am SZA bipolar type. I experience auditory hallucinations like hearing mumbled conversation, doors slamming, knocking, and people callingy name. I also suffer from negative symptoms.
