Well my time here in Washington is coming to an end. I would love to have some huge story about overcoming odds and becoming rich, sadly the story has more of a tone where someone forgot to fuel the plane before take off.

Rewind To About A Year Ago… A friend had money trouble and need money to pay her Utilities before they were shut off, her husband wouldn’t help and she had two small kids. I gave her the money and she promised to pay me back, I have only gotten a quart of the money back to date.

Fast Forward To Eight Months Ago… I added a friend to my phone plan because he was in need of one. It lasted a whole six months before he started to throw a fit about paying me, constantly complaining about or trying to put off paying me all together. another two months later he gets a phone on a different carrier and then disappears without paying me the rest of the money he owes me.

Fast Forward To Five Months Ago… My lead at work gets fired and they hired some ditzy chick for me to train to be my boss cuz she had “experience”. Then for like the next month there is no work, causing me to have to use credit card and borrow money from family just to pull through.

Fast Forward About Month And A Half Ago… The temp agency I worked for lost the contract and the warehouse asked me to switched to the new company. I went down filled out the app and did the drug test, come to find out I would have to keep working for the original agency for 30 days due to some rule or clause in the contract with the warehouse. From the get go it was a train wreck, having to call both agencies to find out about work. My workload and job title changed on a daily basis.

Fast Forward To Last Friday… Everything finally came crashing down when the warehouse started giving me tasks and changing rules then when I responded that I was told otherwise, the temp agency scolded me saying I was lying about it. I was fired after I blew up because the warehouse told me to go to another warehouse an hour before work after I had been told repeated time I didn’t have to go.

These are just the highlights to what has caused me to leave the Northwest and travel down to the South. Check back for the next chapter in my life…
