Working for James again
Ok, back to more updating.
James had me start working right away. We got into the house on a Saturday at 5pm and he had me going in to work the next day. There is an old guy named Bob that used to be a manager there and is now retired so he runs errands and helps out once in awhile. So James had set it up for me to go in to meet with him and get shown what had changed in the 5 years since I left. The big problem was that we had just got here and still had stuff in the moving truck.
The thermostat was disconnected over night so I was sweaty and the shower had to stay dry because it just had tiles replaced. So I had to wash my hair and clean up in the sink while James went to the store to buy me clothes, a new blow drier and curling iron since all my stuff was packed who knows where.
I went in for about 2 hours Sunday and then started my first full day Wednesday. I was very nervous about going back to work there. I really did not want to have to see everyone again. When I left I was anorexic and I definitely am not any more. LOL
Finally, the day came for me to start back. I stayed very quiet and really didn't talk to anyone because I was so uncomfortable. I felt very uncomfortable around the owner. I didn't know what to say or what he was thinking. The first 2 days I worked I completely stayed away from him. It was probably very obvious how uncomfortable I was. I have gotten a little more comfortable but I still avoid talking to him for very long if no one is around. Also when I am in his office I try to stay away from his desk.
Some one always has to stay behind with me while I count money and get the deposit ready at the end of the night. It can be James, the owner, or a man named Juan that is in charge of the guys that work in the car wash. Usually they pawn it off on Juan because after 10 hours of work everyone wants to leave right away. Well the other day the owner came back to work at the end and said he would wait around for me. I am sure it was no big deal but I was all of a sudden so uncomfortable I rushed to get done. I quick locked the safe, grabbed my purse and laptop; and tried to race out the door. The owner started talking away so I tried to talk about work things that would stress him out and make him want to leave. I don't know what he would end up talking about but I for sure did not want him to bring up the problems that happened in the past.
Then Bob came in and started talking so I hurried out the door. He has been perfectly normal with me and we both talk to each other as if nothing happened in the past. I don't feel like it is too uncomfortable to work there. I guess I am just being silly. I am just worried that some day he is going to bring it up and it will be very uncomfortable.
Well the weekday cashier just called to say she wants to come pick up her puppy so I have to go straighten up the house. I can't stand this woman but that is for the next blog with more work updates.
