i worked at toys'r'us as a seasonal worker for the last two months. it was incredibly fun and i was really good at it. one of the hr ladies told me "you're like a superstar on the sales floor", they always told me how impressed they were with me. customers loved me. i know i was doing a great job. available anytime, for however long they needed me. everyone always came to me when they were looking for something, because they knew that i know where everything is. even the ones that have been working there for years.
well, today is the end of the season. i worked my full shift, and now i don't know if they are keeping me or not. i do not have any more hours scheduled for this week. but the schedule is not final yet either. some other seasonals have hours scheduled though. i asked the other hr lady before i left today, and she said the manager will decide and let me know wednesday if today was my last day or if they're keeping me.
it was clear from the beginning that i was looking for a permanent position. and the way things went i never had any doubt that they would keep me.
now i feel so low, i know i won't be able to handle it if this was it. this job was what kept me going every day. i know i'm going to crash big time if i lose that job.
i know it sounds silly, but this job means so much to me. and it's not only the job itself, but also the work environment there that's just awesome.

As she draws her final breath
Just beyond the door he'll find her
Taking her hand he softly says
For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life
Just open up your eyes as I lay you down tonight
Safe on the other side
No more tears to cry
