Its funny how drastically different our lives are if you change one detail. If I hadn't switched jobs when I did, I would have been in severe trouble at least financially when the floods hit. If I has stayed at that job, there is no telling how things would have gone, especially in regards to the flooding. I imagine I would have lost a lot more of my stuff, as well as not had the time to take off to handle the clean up. I probably would have worked myself to the bone trying to play catchup, and I image I would have also failed my math class as a result.
I do miss that old restaurant, and I do miss all the people there. A few days ago, I found out that the Italian restaurant that I used to work at closed down. I hadn't been back since I left, and now I won't get that chance. A lot of the people there transferred to other locations, so I can still see them, but it may be more difficult to do so.
it really made me think, even if I did stay, right now, I would be out of the job. I'm glad things turned out the way they did for me, and I can only hope my former coworkers will be lucky in finding new work as well. Its rough out there. . .
eventually, I'll go visit one of the locations, who knows.
its things like this that make me grateful for what I do have.
