This takes me to my second part time job. I'm getting so frustrated with them. Last fall when I interviewed, I explained to them I had another job and that it required traveling approximately once a month for a week. I told them I'd give them as much notice as I could about the travel dates, but I'd need those times off. All went well until this past week. I was told they wouldn't give me my days off in February because I didn't give them enough notice. (I gave them over 4 weeks). They then told me that I hadn't explained to them before I took the job about my required travel for the other one. Argh! That is the one thing I did and they accepted it.
So now I most likely will be quiting my second part time job because I believe they are going to push me over the fact I "will" be gone those dates whether they like it or not. This wasn't my plan; however, I feel like it will be what I have to do.
There is another side of me though that isn't bothered by this. I received my w2's this past week. In 5 weeks of work at the college last fall I made 1/3rd more than I made working 8 weeks at this other job. I then realized that maybe what I needed to do was push more towards my tutoring job possibilities and allow whatever happens to this job happen.
I just wish this wasn't an issue. I'd rather be thinking about the possibility of attending seminary in the fall.
So on a positive note, working as a textbook scanner I get some knitting time (as long as I don't mind if it's only a row or so at a time.) I finally finished my ThreeForks socks (named that because I have 2 shirts which match colors in the socks.)
The photos were taken with a cell phone, so please excuse the bad lighting. The partially finished socks show the true colors. It was taken with a real camera. I'll have to find it back and take the other pictures again.
