So the last week was a good one. I got a lot of hours, and I've been studying to get my "green shirt" at work. When you start there, you have to wear a brown shirt. But if you pass a horticulture test, you get to wear a green collared shirt and suddenly become one of the employees customers come to for questions. This is going to be interesting for me though since I'm a cashier. I'm HOPING it will get me on track to start being an associate outside. Once fall hits, we're going to start seeing more business. My goal is to get my green shirt next week possibly or maybe the week after. I feel like I'll definitely be ready by the end of this upcoming week.
So I was talking to Daniel about it, and when I get my green shirt, I want to reward myself with the tattoo I've been wanting forever. I had been delaying this because of the placement. Initially, I wanted it on my forearm, then my inner bicep, but now I'm thinking on the outside. I'll have to give this more thought, but I know I want it. At work, we're not allowed to have any visible tattoos. But my sleeve would cover it.
Anyway, I'm super excited. I feel like my life is finally headed in the right direction. I love where I work, I'm in the right environment, I love the people I'm around at work, and my brain is being put to use every day. It's the perfect amount of science for me. Horticulture is the perfect field for my black and white brain. Once you learn something you're set. The information isn't going to constantly change like other fields. It's very comforting to me. Not only that, but I'm around what I love everyday. Plants are so relaxing to me. The other day a customer came in and she told me she came there "to relax for a little while." I was like damn and this is where I get to fucking work? I am so fortunate. The money isn't great, but I do love my job.
I'm so excited to see where the future is headed. But right now, I'm enjoying the present. That's the important part.
