You Know, the Green Stuff

So I put in an application for another job on Wednesday. It's with Idaho Power at their remote Boise substation and it's very similar in nature to what I do now, except I'd be answering phones after hours and taking info on outages and preparing the IVRU and giving emergencies out to dispatchers for only one company instead of 200. I'd also have a wonky work scgedule, which could suck, but for $15 dollars an hour, I'd deal with it. That's right; fifteen dollars an hour. And if I don't like it, I can always come back to the answering service, but I'd like a lot of things for that money.

Anyway, the supervisor out there used to work wih my mom and he was originally the one who recruited me from Adecco to work at Idaho Power as a clerk when I was a senior in high school. Now he told my mom to tell me to apply and he read my cover letter and helped me out with it, so I'm pretty hopeful to get an interview this time. I didn't last time, so it was weird to apply this time. But I am excited to maybe get on this time.

If not, I may be able to milk it for a raise here. That and moving to days and this whole birthday fiasco may get me bumped up to $10.50 if I'm lucky.
