First month wages.

Hey guys,

Firstly if you would like to read last weeks post, click HERE and it shall take you directly.

This month was the first time I had a proper wage. It felt nice to see my ‘savings’ increase. I use quotation marks because I didn’t really have that much left. I decided that because I’d be paid soon I might as well spend that.

I expected to be a little more excited than I was but it was still a nice feeling.
I’m probably more excited this time around. I’ve pretty much spent ALL OF LAST MONTHS WAGES. No idea where it’s all gone.

I know I have bought a few pairs of concert tickets, lots of petrol, maybe some clothes but that’s about it really. No idea where the rest has gone. I’m sure when I get my bank statement I will have a shock. It’s quite surprising how quickly it goes. Normally I am very responsible with my money. I have to be to pay for all things ‘car’, like tax and insurance. But I thought why not be reckless for once. Obviously this month I am back to saving but it was nice to be different for a change.

This months wage is going to be even more because - no joke, I have worked most days. I’ve even done 8 days in a row.. I don’t mind all the hours so much because I actually have fun on my shifts (even though I would like to have a break) The people I work with are funny as hell so we always have a laugh. It’s been nice getting to know a whole new group of people because I haven’t had that in a while. I even have the uniform now so I feel like part of the group and it’s so nice. Cringe but nice.

One of my sisters colleagues have even told her that I am very polite and friendly when she’s been in the shop. It’s really nice to know that you’re doing a good job and leaving a good impression. I’m really happy at this job and when I get used to everything on the post office side of it, I will be well away.

Update: I am no longer only on a temporary contract, but a permanent one!!!:)

I’m very content at the moment. I just hope it stays that way.

Adios amigos!xo
