Weight loss and my job.

Wow things have been happening so fast lately I have not even been able to stop and take it all in. First off, the job.. I started my new job a month and a half ago through a temp agency, after 3 weeks I was doing so well the floor coordinator asked me if I was interested in going full time and getting hired on with the company; of course I said YESSSS!! So I have been training for the last 3 weeks and today was the first day I starting completing my training checklist! I am catching on really fast and doing my job great! My training checklist is 2 pages long and I am about 75% through with the whole thing. After that is finished I need to take a test to prove I know everything I need to know to run the assembly line as if I were the lead and then comes the hiring process! I was shocked to find out the benefits and the pay would be amazing! I am making 8 dollars an hour right now and busting my butt to pay our bills and keep our heads above water and working 50 to 60 hours a week, every week. Once I am hired on I will be making 12.50 an hour working nights and getting paid vacation and paid medical benefits! They also offer a 401K and other sweet benefits! I am loving working even though it is not my ideal work environment I prefer a paycheck over searching for something I am not going to find. I am only 23 years old, I have the rest of my life to go to school and become anything I want to be so for now this is a great opportunity. Working is also keeping me off my butt and on my feet sweating everyday and walking all over the place. Just since I started working and watching what I eat I have lost 15 pounds since I started really getting serious! I feel like this post is me bragging about my job but hey, I am proud of this and proud of myself so why not brag???!!
