raise?

Well my dad believes that my car has a cracked head. I have to refill the oil and the anti-freeze every week. Hence my little car will not be lasting me too much longer. Very sad. In need of a new car I've been looking for a new job that would pay more than $9 an hour (which isn't very much in this area).

Last week I told my boss at Bristlecone that I needed a raise or I would have to look for another job. She told me that unfortunately she could not give me a raise because all the raises in the company are frozen. If she gave me a raise she would have to give the other deserving people a raise and the company can't handle it right now. I had known this but I thought I would at least give it a shot.

My boss offered me another option. There is another position (I am currently a Personal Care Provider) opening up in May, it's an Independent Life Skills Trainer and it pays $15 dollars an hour and only requires a little more training than I already have. Well, today I went for an interview with my prospective patient and her husband and I got the job!
