DIARY OF TIME WILL TELL BY FIONA CUMMINGS


 Good day Bloggets. From a very full Fifi. A windy an yet sunny and warm England. How are you all doing? Today was a lovely time with the family.

 

Teens new girlfriend came I say new, well they have been seeing each other for a few months. She came to meet me some weeks ago. I didn’t care who walked through that door, anyone would be an improvement on the ex. For eighteen months now Teen has been sampling the years he should have had for the previous three years when he was in a relationship. Now he has met a girl he wants to see more than a few times.

 

What would she be like? Well, she walked through the door, Teen wasn’t here, so her and I got to know a little of each other. She’s grounded and holds a good job that she loves. She is a hard worker for someone of her years. She treats Teen in a way that pleased me. It was refreshing to see.

 

Since then, she has been back a few times and fits in with our small family with comfort and ease.

 

Hub thinks she is wonderful and he isn’t easily pleased. And apparently, she likes us. She is fine with the fact we can’t see in fact yesterday when we went out, she was great, just how we would want it to be, very relaxed we didn’t have to explain anything nor did she. She wanted to be with us which was lovely.

 

We went out for a meal it was a pleasant time laughs and normality. Something that was missing from his previous.

 

Now I’m not saying that they will be together forever, I think they are still far too young to think like that, but so far so good.

 

People who have seen her say that she is pleasing to the eye. I still wish I could make a custom made girlfriend for my Son as you Mums of Sons will know, no one is good enough for your boy, but she is lovely we do like her.

 

Teen went for his job interview. Again, he got an interview because he went to the place. He was sitting chatting to his gf and the manager came over to him. She asked him by any chance was he looking for a job? He said with enthusiasm. He was indeed. She asked for his CV he came home printed it and returned. She told him that there was a large job fair on in the town the following day and people would attend it and from there on they would go through the paperwork and decide who was going to be picked for the interviews.

 

Late next day, Teen was called and asked to go for an interview. He looked so smart and on his return where he was an hour in interview, he told me the questions he was asked. Gosh they were not easy. His answers impressed me so I was sure they would the person interviewing.

 

He came home so wanting the job. To start with it was way beyond his capability but he can work his way up the company. Also remember his work now told him he has to pick a job with them or a holiday with us. Ridiculous as he only does twenty hours now as if they couldn’t get someone to do the twenty hours? People there are always asking for more hours. Teen asked ten weeks ago for the holiday too.

 

Well he received another call to say he had passed the next stage and would he go in for a trial? It was to be for three hours. He was put straight onto the floor doing three jobs in one morning. He came home looking rather tired as a new job a lot to take in. After the three hours, the manager asked to have a word. She there offered him the job. She asked him as well if he would consider promotion after working there a while. Of course he said yes and he starts on Wednesday.  Like the above, he is young so just see how it goes. I tell him, he is nineteen, if he chooses little jobs for the next couple of years, that is OK it’s all experience. It is 36 plus hours per week. And she is fine about him taking a holiday. So now he can go on his holidays and relax knowing that he has a job to come back to, mind you, I know so well that his last job rather current, wouldn’t have finished him, as when he was in the other day, he did all the paper work something as a supervisor he did but he had to leave that role because his car insurance wanted something ridiculous per month from him. So he went to the shop floor and half the hours. But he shouldn’t have done the paper work, but his boss and him were the only two in that day because the rest were on holiday or sick or just didn’t turn in. His boss thanked him but sadly that isn’t the boss who told him to choose between work or holiday, otherwise there wouldn’t be a problem.

 

Teen handed in his resignation and now the other boss wants a word. This looks bad. I reccon that his boss is going to be a pain about it, as now he realises that he went too far and basically has lost his best worker. Teen was never late and has been sick three days in twenty one months. Has stayed behind to give extra time for no more pay and filled in shifts for those who have not turned in. So his loss.

 

He is at work now, as has said that he will honour his weeks’ notice and won’t leave them stuck. His nice boss is in, but has told him that tomorrow, he will have to go to the office to talk to the nasty one who will be back from his holidays. Shame the nice boss just can’t sign his paper work and leave it at that.

 

So life is changing in different ways, not sure good or just different, all about time, and time will tell.

 

With love till later.
