I am sitting here dreading starting to study for my massage final tomorrow. It will be the last massage final I ever write. I still have comprehensive exams in May and board exams in June, but tomorrow will be my very last written massage final! Wow eh?? It feels like only yesterday that I started school with 22 other people who were just as shy and intimidated as me, and now we are all massage therapists. My sister had her RMT come over to her house the other day to give her a treatment, and she said that I am just as good, if not better than her in some areas. She still has some more strength than me, but I know that'll come with time and practice! It's good to hear tho! I am just about done school, soon to be a Registered Massage Therapist! Wow! I will have a title, Angie Boschman RMT ;) Not that it really matters if I can't find a job, but we'll be positive and hope that I do find one ;)
I am counting down the days (39 as of today) until I quit at Impark. I just can't wait to see the look on Dale's face when I give my two weeks notice, then when I am able to hand in my keys and nametag....*sigh* Yesterday I was not having a very good day, feeling emotional, like one of those days when you are on the verge of tears and it just doesn't take much to push you over the edge, but there is really no good reason for you to feel like that. Well I was feeling that way, and was driving to work (half way down 22nd st), and remembered that I had forgotten my massage text book at home, so I quickly turned around and came home, and cried on the way back home, and cried on the way back to work. I was only about 5 minutes late, no biggie. Then this woman came to the booth, and handed me her ticket and two of our 2hr validation coupons. Well the rules of the 2hr validation coupons state that you can only use one per visit. So she had been parked for 4 hours, and could only use one coupon, so she owed me $4. She thought that I was full of it, and told me as much. She said that they have always accepted more than one, and I said 'no, I have worked every Saturday and Thursday for the last 2 years (the only time we accept those coupons) and I have NEVER accepted more than one' She said she still didn't believe me. I said to her "I am not trying to rip you off, I just work here, these are the rules I have been given, and I follow them, or else I get in trouble." She said, I still don't believe you. I said to her "What in the world would be in it for me, if I actually was ripping you off??" She said, I don't know, but I still don't believe you. Finally she paid her $4 with a 'hmmph, I'll never be back', and I let her go. I sat there and my hands were shaking, I was mad, but being on the verge of tears....Yeah, well, I sat there in the booth and had a good cry for, oooh, about 20 minutes. Some customers came and went in that time, and they just pretended not to notice my puffy red eyes and red nose. But after I got it out of my system, I felt a lot better! For the rest of the day, I felt pretty normal. Then I got to go home and then I went and spent the evening with Jay. It was a good ending to a mediocre day :)
