Well, today marks the third year of working nights at Wal-Mart. And to celebrate, I get a raise and an interview for a support manager position on nights. We have one now, plus an assistant manager. It was mentioned months and months ago that a second would be added at some point, and they finally posted the job listing a couple of weeks ago. It would involve another raise, plus somewhat different job responsibilities (I’m already often doing a lot of what that position is meant to do). Plus, it would also go well with the Business degree I’m trying to work on – be it experience in management type stuff, or education stuff helping at work.

And regarding the topic, I’m on vacation! Started Saturday, after a couple of weeks of having extra time off due to Canada Day and a personal day (a paid day off each year). I haven’t done much so far, but I don’t have to go back to work until the 18th. And then another week off sometime in August. If the weather and my camera cooperates, I really should get out to take some pictures. It’s been far too long since I’ve done that.

I’ve hardly played EQ2 at all since my last entry, near a month I guess. Computer troubles plus some slight boredom in the game is the cause, I guess. I’m not abandoning it, just taking a bit of a break. I (finally) picked up Civilization 3 Complete last week, that’s such a fun game. So addictive. I can’t wait until Civilization 4 is out, the changes in that game sound so nice.

I’m still on a night-time schedule, so it’s time to do some reading before getting some sleep. Hopefully some BBQ and poker tonight, with my job interview in between (and many beer after that)!
