Am I the only person who can't do Christmas shopping without buying something for myself? I feel awful when I do it, but I'm in the shopping spirit and can't help myself. It's never anything significant, or anything that I've mentioned wanting for Christmas; it's always a minor impulse purchase. I *did* buy myself a netbook in November, but that was almost a necessity. One can only use a BlackBerry as a computer for so long without completely going insane.
And the last thing I purchased was a sixer of Pabst, two pints of High Life, a tank of gas, and my dinner. With the way I go through beer, it's a wonder I'm never broke when I hit my next paycheck.

If only. I have a decent job, and they drug test, so that's out. I'm not about to give up my job for weed.
I mean, they're more likely to promote me than fire me: I have excellent QA, am one of the top collectors on the floor, and don't miss work...but I'm not going to risk it. I'm keeping this job as long as I need to to get everything fully in order. Most things have worked out, but I want to be comfortable before I head elsewhere. Also, the job itself isn't awful. I've worked in call centers before, and it's been loads worse. The people here are great, the teams actually have some sense of "family", and they treat us well. It's WAY better than Gevalia and Amazon. Granted, they probably treat us well because they're amazed they're able to find an entire staff that isn't strung out on pain pills...but still. They're good to us. We get benefits, incentives, holiday pay, voluntary overtime, free food...it's definitely not a bad place to work.
