It has been a couple of days since my last post, much has happened. I purchased my laptop and they tried to deliver it at 8:40AM this morning, Melissa and I were asleep so we didn't hear there door. I woke up at around 8:55AM, I am going to drive to the place to pick it up after I get off work. I really don't want to wait until Monday to get my computer.
Poker is going well again, I am up over 20 buy ins for the month. If I hadn't taken a 25nl shot and blown some money in SNGs it would have been even better, but what can you do? I will post some graphs and poker tracker shots later. Hopefully this will continue over the next few months.
I got really drunk on Sunday night and had to work on Memorial day and wound up going home because I got sick at work in the bathroom. I have never ever gotten sick the day after. It was terrible and it will be a long long time before I share 5 pitchers with just Melissa. We were both really drunk, way too much beer.
The other day I got a package from T-Mobile and itis a battery for a phone I don't even own. I call them and the guy tells me that I placed the order last week. I tell him that I haven't even called in about any issues for quite some time. I held the battery up to the back of my phone to see if it was the same size. I guess it did something because since then my call logs have erased and I lost all my text messages and any that have been coming in I have not gotten. Maybe the phone is going out, this is really the first issue I have had with my Blackberry.
I finally spoke with my new boss J.R. about training and such. We are going to meet next week and he will give me all my information about where I am staying and flight information and my new phone. They give you a phone to use and it will most likely be a data device. So I am not really worried about my T-mobile phone, I just need to figure out how to get out of the contract with out paying $200. I think I have a year left, and I know that in the old days your could call and say that your moving out of the country they don't make you pay the $200. I might try that, not sure yet.
My last day with Pier 1 will be next Tuesday, I was off Wednesday and Thursday of this week because of the holiday. I walk in to work today and they let go all of the part time people, my boss, the woman who was the lead on my team and the other supervisor. It is fucking crazy because the company is doing better than it has in years. They are also changing the hours so they call center is only open Monday through Friday and they will only be helping customers and no longer helping stores. So pretty much all the problems I had are being fixed now that I am leaving. That is pretty much the story of my life.
I kind of wish I had known because then I could deal the weekends and work during the week and keep the easiest job I have ever had, but it is too late for that and AT&T is still way to good an opportunity to pass up. The changes here shouldn't be that big of a deal to me since I am leaving anyway but they are. They are letting people come get their stuff tomorrow at scheduled times and there were security guards here the other day people said. I got such a warm feeling from this place, I guess it is not all its cracked up to be.
Since I am leaving Pier 1 I feel free to talk about our credit card provider Chase. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with, I am really not sure how they are still around. About 5 or 6 times a day I get phone calls from customers who have never received their card or their statements but will get phone calls from collections departments. They handle our coupons as well but none of their reps know that so they transfer customers over to us and there is nothing that we can do. A woman was getting collection calls from someone there who told her that she is like every other dead beat senior citizen who doesn't pay their bills. We call them about it and they had no record of it. We had to speak with 3 supervisors before we could get any information about it. So I will NEVER have an account with them, and I suggest to all my readers (all 2 of you) to not ever do business with them.
Ok that is all for now, until later.
