Default New Job? GOOD JOB!

Ok about a month ago i applied @ south eastern freight lines. I didn't get a reply back within two weeks so i figured they just threw my application out the door. SO i keep looking for a job and found one @ a place called COOTERS GARAGE. Yes that is the name of the shop and no I'm not kidding. Well he was paying me $8/hour and so on a and so forth. So at this time I had completely thrown out the idea that south eastern was going to call me back. WRONG MISTER! The second day when I was working @ cooters I got a phone call from south eastern and they wanted to talk to me about a job. So Tuesday morning I woke up at 5:30 to get their at 6:30 for the interview. Needless to say I woke up twenty minutes late and got lost on the way there. At that point I thought there was no way I could get this job. WRONG AGAIN MISTER! They offered me benefits health, eye, and dental, and still pay me 15.21/hour(starting) working the night shift I just graduated high school only a month and a half ago. If I stay with them (which I probably will) it will be $31,000 a year. Thats more than my sister and she has been in collage for four years. She is very jealous of her little brother. Every one is proud of me. Just thought I'd tell ya'll this. Oh and after 2 or 3 years I probably will be working on those big CUMMINS
