Work is going amazing.
Yesterday I was working down in the gas station at HEB (the grocery store I work at). We recently went full service, so I was out pumping gas. Everything was going normal, when a white car pulled up. I went over to greet her, and offer to pump her gas, when I noticed she had an HEB nametag. I hadn't seen her around the store, so I figured she must be from corporate. Naturally, I was extra friendly and talkative, so I'd look good, and we got to talking about what I was going to school for. I mentioned I was majoring in chemistry and planned to go into pharmaceuticals, and that I'd love to be able to move to the pharmacy at the store. Then after the gas was done, we exchanged goodbyes, and she drove on up to the store. I thought nothing of it. Later, I went up to take my break and my manager pulled me aside and asked if I knew who I had pumped gas for today. I told her I remembered seeing someone from corporate. My manager told me that it was Suzanne, the third-in-command for HEB, and that she had spoke highly of my service in the gas station. Needless to say, this made my day.
Today, my grandmother went up to HEB to pick up a few items, and got to talking with my manager. She mentioned that I was her grandson, and that's when my manager mentioned that Suzanne had mentioned while complimenting my service that I was interested in moving to Pharmacy to gain career experience.
So, they're gonna start training me in Pharmacy, and eventually have me working full-fledged shifts over there. This is a great career opportunity for me. It just feels like confirmation that I've made the right choice about what field to go into.
EEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
