Everything is falling into place.
This past week i can honesty its been a good week. First thing is our team (the fighters alliance) finally has been sponsored by a clothing company to do our shirts!! All it took was one and we got it. Now we just gotta work on the next ones. Another thing thats has happend is pretty much i start my new job next week!!!! Today (friday) will be my last day at my current job. alot of staff are and were sad to see me go. and they understood why i took this position as well...unlike my second job of course...i'll explain what happend yesterday.
Well yesterday was another sad day for me. yesterday was my bestfriend Marshon Jones birthday. he would of been 26 years old. its been four years since he pasted and i still miss my homie...So while i was at i got a call from this job that offered me a position THREE WEEKS AGO. everything was cleared BUT the background check. the background check took THREE WEEKS TO COMPLETE!!!...I was being patience waiting on them to call. When they called i just looked at the phone and let it goto the voice-mail so i can hear what she had to say..because everything she called the status kept getting pushed back alot...So when I checked the message she sounded happy!!! and asked me to call her back because she wanted to know when i would start!!!! i was GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK UPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP i called my wife and told her the good news..that shit felt great man..calling your wife to give her GOOD NEWS instead of bad news.
But the thing about it was...they wanted me to start the next day!!(today) i told them monday and they were ok with that. So now i had to figure out how to tell my job(s) i was resigning...i never had to do this before....this shit felt weird....like how would my boss and boss boss(es) take this? So you know who i called? My Uncle Dennis. When i called him he didnt pick up the phone but he did call me back and i explained to him my situation. He told me what i should do in this situation and that was:
1. Be honest about the situation and let them know what is going on.
2. Write them a letter of resignation
3. and go from there.
So i waited til my boss got back from lunch and i explained to him what was going on. and honesty he was geeked like i was! giving me props and everything told me congrats and everything and wished me the best. He explained that he would never hold nothing against someone who is trying to better themself and for their family..he told me he understood the situation and everything. So after i gave him my letter we chit chatted about stuff and he told me to not stress out over this situation it happens.
After my shift was over i had to goto my second job and give them the news. Now this job in particular treated me like pure grade A shit i must say...I'm not going to name the company but they know who they are (if you reading this) I was the only African American male on the Service desk. It was others but NOT in my department. So i had to work hard for everything. I noticed this job would never let me in on upcoming projects, people getting special training for stuff oh and lets not forget...people were getting fulltime just for the hell of it. matter of fact..one meeting it was a total of six (including me) parttime workers out of that six five of them (white) were given full time and i was still stuck at part time..When i talked to my manager about how come i was not offered or considered for the full-time position he exact words were "we didn't think you would want it." after that bullshit of a convo i had with him.that right there was my cue to get the fuck out of there....
So yesterday when i went in there i brought a box with me and went to my desk like everything was normal..said hi to the higher ups and everything, shit i even clocked in and sat down at my desk lol. I started packing my belonging up and i typed up my letter So i could resgin THAT DAY meaning i did NOT want to work there as of that minute. i couldnt print out the paper so i had no choice but to EMAIL them my letter. once i sent it i walked over to my manager's desk like i was his manager and told him i need to speak with him. we get in the office and i told him i am resigning as of today (yesterday) and that i will leave today...you would think that he would be like "oh hey congrats! how everything will go well blah blah" NOPE. he had this face like he was pissed off. like he wanted to punch someone.
i told him it was nice working with him and everybody and tried to shake his hand and he did not want to really do it but he did (he was salty) hell after that he didnt want to look me face to face after that...So after that meetinig i told everybody who i was cool with that i am out and i went home and played street fighter lmao.
So Monday is a new start for me..New work place and i bet its going to be more work. I'm ready and i cant wait.

i read this just in time, i'm goin through something similar, i don't know how to tell my boss cuz i'm one of 3 people that he depends on because the rest of the workers act mentally challenged, i even got a call from my old boss saying if i left they would need to shut down lol, that meant a lot but i could'nt take another second there. people you think would know how to run a business don't at all, not just my boss but the people over him.
all that typing l almost forgot congrats on the new job!!
