The Down Lizzle on the new Jizzle

So I know everyone wants to know how the new job is going. So here goes. It's good so far. They brought me in specifically to train to be a store manager. Electronic Express is family owned, and there are only 15 stores right now. The plan for me is to get me up to speed on their procedures and ready to take second command in the newest store which will open in a month or two. Interestingly, that store is going to be located in the same building where the CompUSA was that I worked at.

So far I'm getting plenty of hours, but the pay is not good ($7.25/hr + commission). I am being paid as a floor salesman, but since they are training me for management I'm not afforded much time to sell. It's kind of a catch 22. I seriously haven't made this little since I worked at Hardees in High School. It definitely does not pay the bills. Once I get the Manager status then we'll be talking more like $45,000/yr base. That's a lot more comfortable. Hopefully everything moves quickly and we can get back to having some semblance of security around here.

Anyway, that's the gist of it. We'll be OK, just like we always are. But, if you really feel inclined, we do take cash donations. Or you could request one of our self addressed prepaid envelopes to put all of your unwanted gold and jewelry into and mail it to:
