"Layla how many times have I told you to put the music I picked out." My bitchy boss Cindy said. "And how many times have I told you that the music you pick sucks." I was finally fed up with all her crap.  "Look it's about time you start showing me a little respect I am your boss after all." "OK how about I make you a deal, I'll show you respect the second that you admit that you don't like the fact that people like me more." "Why would I do that I would be lying." "Lying ha. It would be the most truthful thing you'd ever said in your entire life." "I can't look at you anymore go organize the disks in the boxes." "You know what. You organize the damn disks I'm done I quit!"

     I walk to the back I grab my purse and phone and then walk out of the store. I get in my car and start blasting the music while I drove home. Man now  I had to go find a new job. My night job was good but I couldn't live well off of just that. As soon as I got home I checked the time. It was  2:30 in the afternoon. I still had a few hours till Eric got off of school. 

    I run to my room to change into something a bit more comfortable. I threw on some black yoga pants and a ting top. I then head to the living room to start my job hunting. Eric and I lived in some run down apartments. They were pretty old but they were good enough. We had been living here for a few years so we knew everybody. I start looking for jobs similar to what I've done before. While I looked I turned Netflix on to finish watching my shows.

    I started looking for nanny jobs because I had a lot of experience with kids. At home Nanny needed. Three kids ages 13 ,12, and 1. I decided to apply. I wouldn't mind being an at home nanny as long as my night job didn't inter fear and having a little brother.

     After applying to a few more jobs I put my computer down and went into the kitchen to make myself a little snack. I check the time one more time and it read 3:00. I had 30 minutes until I had to pick up Eric. I eat Some celery with peanut butter, then head back into the living  to finish my Burn Notice episode. 
     Around 3:12 I head out to pick up Eric luckily the school is not too far from our apartment. "Hey sis." Eric says as  he gets into the car."Hey little man how was school?" "It was good i got an A on my math test." "That's great Eric. How about we go celebrate?" "Cool can we go to Sparky's?" Sparky's was the best kids burger place in L.A. "You know what sure what sure why not." As we drive to Sparky's i decide to tell Eric about quitting my job. "Well as long as your happy,then i'm happy." Eric says getting out of the car after me. "Thanks bro. But don't worry i already started applying to more jobs. I sent in an application to this stay at home nanny job,three kids ages 12,13 and 1. I hope i get it."  

         "Well come on the lets order." "As were ordering. I suddenly get a phone call from an unknown number."Order me what I usually get while I answer this." I tell Eric as I stand up to answer the phone call. "Hello" "Hello is this Ms.Gomez speaking?" "Yes this is she who is this?" "Hello this is Sally Mr.Figueroa's assistant you applied for a nanny job earlier today. He would like you to come in for an interview." "I can do that. Where would the interview be held?" "It will be held at Mr.Figueroa's office CNP headquarters on Friday at 4:30 in the afternoon." "I will be there thank you very much Sally." "You're welcome have a nice afternoon." "You too goodbye."  Once i hang up i practically skip to our table to tell Eric the good news.
