travis' brain dump

I can’t believe it’s the end of Wednesday already. I’m glad, that’s for sure. Two more days this week and then next week is a four day week, so I’m excited. 🙂

This past weekend went pretty well. Amanda evidently enjoyed her birthday so that’s a good thing. It was a full three days of activities that’s for sure. LOL At least everyone came away from having had a good time.

Did I already mention how glad I am this week is almost over?! It’s been a busy one with more busy days ahead. One of these weeks I’m going to lose a few days when the company I’m working for sends me out to SLC for a couple days to do some work out there. Should be fun though, nothing too crazy, mostly just making sure some things are in line and getting a feel for a couple of the other locations.

I’ve really enjoyed it here so far. The schedule has been a little odd to get used to but I really like working for this company. I definitely would love the opportunity to stay on here if given the chance. It’s a great environment and the people here are a blast to work with, it’s like a big family here. We’ll see what the future holds though but I definitely hope for something permanent to present itself sooner than later as this hourly stuff is really getting annoying. I never thought I would enjoy the aspect of a fixed rate salary despite the obvious uncompensated overtime. I guess compensation for that comes in so many other ways like stable/affordable/good benefits and reliability on a pay schedule. Eesh.

The “benefits” I have now have got to be some of the worst I’ve ever seen. It’s almost pointless to even have them aside from the fact it keeps you in a “covered” state so anything that comes up will transfer to new insurance. Other than that, it’s a waste. Gotta love it!

Anyway, end of the day so I need to get moving. 🙂
