VICTORY IS MINE!!!
 
I am now a chef pâtissier-confiseur. Sort of. They'll have me making ribbon-ball decorations (so pretty!), silk flowers (PROFESSIONAL ARTS AND CRAFTS, BITCHES!) et all in the back, as well as working the front counter (I make the big sales!). 

I'll be frosting cakes later and, since they like everyone to know how to do everything, I might end up learning to bake those yummy, yummy cakes.

(Red Velvet! Marble! Chocolate Delight! Be still, my beating heart.)

Now all of this is pending (yes, I let Dr. Frank-N-Furter know) how things go at my interview for the position of assistant manager at the clothing retailers. That job requires that I be present on at least three Saturdays of the month, which is the day the cake place needs the  most help. Fridays and Saturdays, specifically.

Best case scenario? I alternate Saturdays and Fridays with each. Will two weekends a month with each be enough? We'll have to wait and see.

If I don't get the management job, Dr. Frank-N-Furter made it clear that making cake decorations was in the bag--just keep him in the loop.

MINE!!!

Aside: Any hints on how NOT to be nervous for a job interview? Going in, I knew I had this one already in the bag and yet I still had wet armpits. Srsly uncalled for and ew. The Asst. Manager position? Yeah. Not in the bag, yet, even though I know I am prepared and qualified to fulfill the responsibilities even without the label "Manager" attached to me previously. I did tons of managerial work at my last job: reviewing resumes, interviewing my future coworkers, training them, acting as moral booster, being left in charge when supervisor was absent. I was the defacto assistant manager. I think the only thing I didn't do was repremands and shift scheduling.

But yeah. Tips for not getting nervous?
