Panera it is!

So I interviewed and was hired. o_O Then again, I'm about twice the age of their other front line staff— I mentioned that if hired, I'd add diversity to the staff, lol. So I'll start next Wednesday, but will have the following weekend off which is great because my dear [livejournal.com profile] persephone100 will be visiting me next weekend!! And now I have an excuse to go to one of my favorite stores, the local Goodwill, in search of some khakis and polo shirts, since I have neither. :P

I'm almost back to working a 'regular' week in terms of hours. That will help in regards to paying off my credit card. And getting my teeth cleaned. And my bicycle fixed. And the speed sensor for my car…

Yay for adding diversity! :D Congratulations.

Mmmh, polo shirts. Go get some. ;)

Yes, yay for diversity! Heh. And now I get to get polo shirts, long sleeved shirts, and some plain pants. :)

Awesome! It's my favorite place to hang out. I know you'll get to where you enjoy the customers as much as the people at my Panera's seem to enjoy theirs.

Well done!!!

I remember us going to Panera's when I visited and us sitting and writing! I'm sure I'll enjoy being there; it's close, it's a comfy environment, and I think I'll get the hang of things pretty quickly. Thank you so much! ♥

yay! sounds good. :D

Yep! I'll report in next week once I begin my training. ;)

congrats!

Thanks so much! I'm still underemployed, but there's potential there.

Congratulations!! And I love the food there. :) I'm sure it won't be long until it will be obvious that you're the best thing to happen to Panera since...sliced bread!

I'm also looking so forward to visiting!! :D :D

We'll talk soon! <3

Isn't the food great? I'll be able to splurge on occasion with their excellent broccoli cheese soup in a bread bowl. Nom, nom!

Can't wait to see you!!! :D :D

Congrats! Man, a bakery sounds like a fun place to work.

[identity profile] thrihyrne.livejournal.com 2010-11-05 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah- and it's a place that's busy, so I doubt I'll have a lot of down time, which is something I dislike in a job. Plus the employees always seem to be enjoying themselves, something else that's important. Thank you!

Congrats on the new job, hon!

[identity profile] thrihyrne.livejournal.com 2010-11-05 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! Now I'll be uber busy, lol.

Yay! Congrats! *hugs*

[identity profile] thrihyrne.livejournal.com 2010-11-05 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks so much! Should be a pleasant environment- and nice perks. :)

Yay! Good news!

[identity profile] thrihyrne.livejournal.com 2010-11-06 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, it is! Thanks!

Yay! You're hired. For what. I've missed something completely here. What will you be doing and is it in Virginia?

[identity profile] thrihyrne.livejournal.com 2010-11-06 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
That's okay-- it's a second job to go with the 15 hours a week I work at the Poetry Center. Still here in Harrisonburg, I'll be working at a Panera Bread café. Not rocket science, but a pleasant environment and they stay busy.

Sounds good. *g*

I've enjoyed Panera the couple times I went there. Yum. ;p
