The First of Many Musings

Now, who knew that I would start a blog? Definitely not me, but since I'm not always coming into contact with my friends and family on an extremely regular basis, this might be a good thing. Hopefully.

Now, many people have known that I have been working, but it seems that I have failed to keep people up to date on my whereabouts in concerns to work. As of October of this past year, 2008 (it's so weird to call 2008 last year!), I've been working at a credit union as a teller. Mind you, working at a financial institution as a teller is no easy thing, because, especially in the economic turmoil the world over is in, people want their money to be safe and, especially if dealing with a large sums of money, it can be very easy to make a mistake. Trust me.

I definitely cannot complain about my job, I can't, it's not possible. Now, there are days when I'm just not in a good mood and I don't want to deal with people and there are days when some of the members of the credit union get on my nerves and days when my co-workers annoy (and no doubt days that I annoy my co-workers). These are normal. I can't complain about the job because it's a good job, a better paying job than the other jobs that I have had, and it is a blessing job because there a people all across the United States, and all across the world, that do not have jobs. I am truly blessed.

So, the day was a short workday because of my having to go to some extra training for work and it did not take as long as was expected, so I'm able to hang out for pretty much the rest of the day and hem my too long pants for my too short legs. Being short is not fun at times because I'll find pants that I like, but cannot find pants in the length that I need. It always seems to work out that way, all the pairs of trousers and pants where the length is correct either don't fit me properly or I don't like them, then the trousers and pants that fit me for the most part and that I like, the length is too long. Interestingly though, I was talking with my supervisor, who is short like myself, and my manager, who is tall unlike myself, and we got onto the topic of hemming pants and they both told me about this stuff that could be used to hem pants without having to actually sew the pants! And it's cheap!! With this stuff, you would prepare the pants for hemming just like you would normally do, fold the pant legs to the length needed, iron them so they stay in place, get this stuff and place it in between the pieces of fabric and iron it!
Bada Bing. Anyhow.
