Song of the Day: Swag Suffer by FLY
OSN!!! I got the job at a non-profit organization that I have wanted since I volunteered here last summer. My mother also works here. Monday was my first day and it was fun. There is a lady here, we will refer to her as Elle, that is sooo funny. She has seven children and a husband who is kinda retarded. Everything Elle says is funny and she definitely has us cracking up all the time. The kitchen staff are some characters as well. Dee and Angel are two older ladies who have wierd philosophies on life. Dee talks really fast and likes to holler out of car windows when she goes places with my mother.... Angel cant talk at all and everyone picks on her, but she is always nice to me and take up for me. There is another monitor, that what I am, her name is Victoria and I cant stand her. She had a higher position last year but she got demoted because she never turned in her paper work on time. Last year there was another monitor with flaming red hair. She wasnt re-hired because last year, she never did her job and would go to random funerals when she was supposed to be on the clock.
I work with mostly African Americans, except for one man, but he may as well be black because you would never know he was white my hearing his voice. I love my people and my people love me. I like working with black peeps because we know how to have a good time. This group of people knows how to work first and have fun later. There is a tradition that on Fridays, everyone contributes money and we have and extra special lunch. Last year we had meatloaf, chicken, fish, breakfast, roast pork, and all the sides you could think of. I love the people here and my boss so nice. We can call her Angie. She is new to the program like me and in my interview I thought she was a little, "removed" from the culture, but she aint. She fits in with the rest of us and She is nice and understanding. Anytime I have a problem, she is calm and lets me know how to solve it. And the best part about this job, $11 and hour!!!!! :)
