This man in front of me at the cash register was just looking around behind me then he looked at me and asked if I'm okay. He said it not in a concerned way but more like a friendly, casual way I guess. I was like are you talking to me and then told him I was fine and he didn't say anything after that. Guess he was just being nice.

Well, I walked to work again. It took me 2 minutes longer but my legs started to get tired. Saw a guy that used to work there on the way up to work that said he thought I had a car. I told him I had to pay to go to work and he asked what I meant by that. So I told him gas money. He said its good exercise and I said yea. I called my produce manager for a ride but I think she was working. Some man on the other side of the trailer park said he'd give me a ride but I didn't trust him. I need the extra exercise anyways.

No one in this world will ever like me. It's why I'm in the situation I'm in. I just wish my sister could move down here to live with me so just me and her could live together. But no. I have to live in this horrible place. I'm unwanted.

How did you find these people to live with anyways? It's still a mystery to me. You pay for little incidentals here and there but not rent? Very odd living situation.
I said before that I pay for rent. And my sister knows these people. Im only making 7.50 an hour. I can't help that they make me do everything. They made me go broke again. They take most of my money. I said like last week I payed a 50 dollar rent. And they make me pay gas money to go everywhere. So, I'm doing more than enough.

Well, some guy at a gas station told me he could see about getting me a job that pays $8 an hour ten miles from me. I can't walk there but he said the manager or whoever could pick me up and take me there. Maybe I'd only have to pay gas every other time instead of every single day or even if I'm broke.

He said its a cooking job I think. If I have to be a waitress, I'll pass that offer cause I couldn't handle that. But those tips would be nice. :/ I couldn't quite understand him cause he wasn't born in America and I didn't want to be rude, so I just tried my best to understand what he was saying. He's always friendly to me. :) Maybe if I see him at work, hell let me know. I see him every now and then there.

Such a shame you can't get a better paying job - I can't believe they pay you such terrible money over there.

Plus you need to move out. :)
And everything is higher now. The minimum wage shouldn't be 7.50 anywhere. I know it's taboo to mention how much you make but most minimum wage jobs are pretty obvious to tell. It's ridiculous that my job made me have to buy a shirt for fourth of July, too. I had to put ten dollars of gas in the car to go get it and turns out, we didn't have to wear it and they made a note at work that if we didn't wear it, we'd get sent home the rest of the week, which is messed up. The company should have paid for it. Oh well. It's just an extra shirt to have that I can wear at home I guess. Lol It's no wonder so many people quit their jobs at my store in 6 months or less. They're strict up here. We get no discounts. Can't get tips from customers. The only thing we get is extra pay during holidays. Haha. I've never worked a full 40 hours here, either. I've worked like 32 hours at most. :no

On top of that, I told them I need money and they said they don't want to overwork me. How weird. I know a stocker at my store that told me last week he's working 8 days in a row. I've worked like 5 days in a row at most. :stu Maybe it's just cause he's a stocker. Either way, it's strange my seafood manager told me she doesn't want to overwork me. I can handle it but guess they don't want me getting a lot of hours. It's best to just walk to work and back. I can save money better. :)

There might be some law that if you work over 32 hours, they have to pay benefits.
Maybe. It's pretty annoying to say the least. Oh well. I'll find something better.

Something weird happened while I was walking home the other day. This man stopped his truck on the grass like 150 feet away to ask if I needed a ride. The way he was talking made me get a slight, weird vibe. But I'm never taking my chances. I can walk. Although, some other people in the neighborhood that I know gave me a ride the rest of the way. I was only like 15 minutes away walking distance. That same day, there were a bunch of cops, a fire truck, and an ambulance over there at their house. Still don't know what happened. :stu

:O Be careful.
Oh, I definitely will. :O

I walked home after 7 today and it got dark like 20 minutes later. I'm just gonna get a ride on the way home on the days I'm working after 7. If it was summertime still, I wouldn't have to cause it doesn't get dark until after 8. I can't be walking home after dark with a crazy person with a knife roaming around. :afr
