Right. Uh, been a few minutes, let me think.
So I guess the biggest thing is that I started a new job end of November. Fell kind of ass-backwards into it too. Went back to an old employment agency and their local client company that I used to work for. Decent place, regular full-time first shift hours, etc. Lotta problems, mind, but different problems than the restaurant, mostly.
Oh but yeah, I'd put in notice at the restaurant, went in for orientation at the warehouse thinking I'd get a decent little 9/hour placement working on/with cell phones, and instead I get a "hey we've got a job pays 12/hr but you've gotta start tomorrow". Worked out a quick phone call with my McBoss and here we are. (incidentally I still work at the restaurant every little bit, few times a month).
So I and a handful of other people are the main monkeys in an eBay consignment shop. Spent the last month learning the process, training, and helping troubleshoot and work out the various bugs and procedural flaws and the like with the workline, the shipping, the inventory management and tracking program, etc. It's kind of fun sometimes, and it's the best money I've ever made.
Also we're totally fucked eight ways from Sunday and it's pretty funny. Management software (the part that actually directly interacts with eBay's stuff) went haywire Wednesday and stopped pushing any of our completed merchandise to the site, among various other problems we've discovered the more we dig through the mess.
On Tuesday we and eBay started sending out large amounts of information across the nation for people to use our service. As of Friday we'd sent out about...I think 600 or so boxes to be delivered to people and businesses that had responded and wanted to hire us.
As of Friday we also have no way of putting most of whatever they send us this upcoming weeks.
So yeah, fucked!
