Working People

So the job hunt is over and we are both working full time. Joey got a job working in sales for M. Lee Smith Publishing Company. It's a very good job that has a good base salary and comes with commission on all his sales, so far he is doing great. I was trying to get my old job back at Lexus working as a valet when lady luck knocked on my door and offered me something better. I had also applied to be a valet at Mercedes Benz incase Lexus fell through. Mercedes called me back and said they didn't have a valet position open but they wanted to interview me for an office job. Of course I said yes, to say no would be stupid. So, after lots of paperwork, interviews and having to pee in a cup I was hired by Mercedes Benz to work in Warranty and Cash Office, and on some occasions help with the appointments. I will say that it is a lot to learn and a bit frustrating but I am getting the hang of it and I really love it. The pay is great and the people are so nice. Of course this is only a stepping stone in my life while I go back to school. I only have to take 7 more classes before I will have an AS degree. Then I would like to go to the art school here in Nashville and learn illustration. I have already written and illustrated one book and I am just waiting to work on getting it published. Life is going very well for us right now.
