Oh my goodness! I can’t tell you how awesome today had been and in a really unexpected way as well. :)
I got a raise! *jumps up and down having an asthma attack* So very, very awesome. I went from $7.15 (min. wage in my state) to $7.40. That’s a lot considering this is my first raise ever and I’ve been there for a little over three years now.
I’m so happy. I scored just above average on most of my stuff in the evaluation and my boss said he would really like to see me moving out of the dish room and into something else. I know too much about the kitchen to be stuck in that one spot. He said a lot of other good things too it just made me so happy. I haven’t had a compliment on my efficiency at work for some time now and with the whole change in management- this is great. Finally!
*runs in a circle* I think I might frame my little yellow slip that says “Pay Raise” on it, just because I can. Wow. This is so awesome.
congratulations. may it be the first of many. :-))
:D I doubt it at the place I work. One raise in three years is probably a record for anyone but thankies nonetheless. :D
A big congratulations Spirit. What a tremendous thing to have happen to you. May many more wonderful, happy things come your way. May they all be treasured the way you treasure this one.
