Job Interviews

Chris has been wanting to leave walmart for a long time and truthfully I quess his dissatisfaction with his job is rubbing off on me, because now I kind of want to find a different job too. I know it sounds retarded, but I am too scared to leave. I have been with walmart since high school, I just can't imagine myself working anywhere else. I feel like the benefits of staying far outweigh all the reasons that I keep thinking of to leave. The truth is that I make almost $13 an hour there and I'll be getting 3weeks vacation before long and I know my job backwards and forwards I just can't fathom learning to do something else. Chris keeps telling me that his job is a dead end and in truth it kind of is. We will never get weekends off and for the most part we will probably always be on a 2pm-11pm shift. This all basically means that if Chris would get a different job that I would never see him, because once you are stuck on the second shift.... You are stuck on second shift. I quess that I was always satisfied with walmart, I mean I know that I would whine about going to work and stuff, but I think that everyone does that. Chris told me that he wants to be proud of where he works and not embarrassed to tell people. I quess I understand what he means, because when I see some people I figure that they probably look down on me for working there, but for the most part I just never really cared. Chris had a job interview up in Perrysburg yesterday. He decided not to go to the second interview because he really isn't interested in what they are offering. The harder that he looks the more scared I get. The truth is no matter where you work or what you do work is work. Nobody wants to go to work. Everyone would love to take the easy way out and do stuff that they want to do, but the responsible side of the brain usually kicks in to remind you that bills need paid. There is no job that is easy and fun that pays you to do nothing. (I wish that there was I would be the first person in line) I am just scared I guess because sometimes I think that that is what he is looking for....
