So after quitting Dairy Queen I picked up as many hours as I could at Jim n Nicks. I have been working Friday nights, Saturday days, and Saturday nights. I was working last Friday night and Z, the general manager, pulled me to the side and said “Isaac, [the name he calls me] how much do you make an hour?” I told him and he told me he was gonna give me a raise. He didn’t say how much, or give me any details, he just told me he was giving me one. Then on Saturday he told me how much of a raise he was giving me. It turned out to be almost two dollars an hour. I am super excited about it. He said it won’t take effect for another three to four weeks but I can’t complain.

I am no longer working at Dairy Queen. I went in on Friday to talk to the manager because I was scheduled to work at both Jim n Nicks and DQ on Saturday. So I told Stephanie I couldn’t work then, and I was scheduled to work Sunday as well, so I asked off for that too, because of church. She wasn’t very happy about that, and when I told her that I would really only be able to work on Monday nights, she said it wasn’t even worth it because Monday nights are an easy night to fill. So I turned in my stuff and am only working one job.

I can’t say I am really upset about it because I never really liked the way Dairy Queen worked, scheduling was a nightmare. They told you not to tell the managers when you needed off but instead to write a request form, which I did and almost always got scheduled anyway.  Oh well. I am making way more at Jim n Nicks anyways. That simply means that I will have a free night during the week.
