CoreComm called Today!

I had a couple of interviews at CoreComm back in October. I probably mentioned it here, don't remember. They told me there were no openings, but Brian Oakley (he's my wife's step-mom's brother, not really related, but kinda) told me that I was at the top of the list when they had an opening. He has been helping me get this job there, and I really appreciate him for it. Anyhow, I was expecting there to be an opening sooner, but for some reasons that I can't really say, they couldn't do any hiring for a little while. But, today they called me and asked if I was still interested in the job. Of course I still was, so they said it would be one to three weeks while they did some background checks and let the paperwork run through the HR department. I am pretty excited. McDonald's has been a shit job recently (well, it's never been great, but now is worse than normal). Let's just say it's been going on two years since I have seen an increase in pay. And now they are working our asses off. Not sure if I can quote the expected labor percent McDonalds policies expect a store to follow, but I can say that we have been running WAY under the correct labor rate. At some times the labor percent is half of what it should be (each person is on average doing the job of two people, and when you figure in the lazy asses you can barely do their own job, some people are doing the work of three or more people). Ah, so is life. At least the owner of the store is able to spend more time on vacation in Florida than at home. And that's no exaggeration either. The first two months of this year he is going to be in Florida over six weeks, and last year he was down there at least half the year. At least my lack of raises has been going to good use. :(
