Three Day Weekend

Welcome to Assistant Manager heaven! I have a three day weekend!

Alot has happened at work in a short time period. Yesterday I found out that instead of my off days being all spread out this time, they are all together in what I will treat as a mini vacation.

Today, Dan, my store's regional manager, came into town. He spent the day at the McFarland Mall arcade. (I work in the University Mall arcade.) Dan fired Wes (a guy working at the MFA), and then told Kenny, my manager, Namco's plans for Tuscaloosa.

The bad news first: Namco is closing the University Mall arcade. The other arcade is larger, and has made more money for the last quarter. Namco is consolidating their priorities by only having one arcade open in the Tuscaloosa, AL area.

The good news: Kenny is being transfered over there as the Manager, and he is being allowed to take whatever person he wants to with him from our store. He told me today that he's taking me. Hiram, the current manager at the McFarland location, is going to be assistant manager. However, Kenny will do everything he can to make sure I don't take a cut in pay. So, in other words, I will be getting assistant manager pay without all those pesky assistant manager duties.

Let's hear it for pseudo-good news, in the face of bad news! Yay!

On the down side, I've had a headache all day, and now I have to fill out stupid questionaire thingys for my doctor about my behavior and feelings. I think I'm going to be in pain and bored tonight.
