Awkwardly Thankful

Today I had an unexpected talk with two very important people, my bosses. They basically explained to me how I have been doing a great job, but there are little things that need improvement. Turns out that I made a mistake, and I shouldn't have done what I had but in the end, everything is a learning experience.

I thanked them continuously for the talk, as I am always looking to improve, so it was greatly appreciated that they approached me about a certain situation. It was probably one of the weirdest feelings in the world, the feeling of happiness mixed with the one of disapointment. Obviously I should have known that what I was doing was wrong, but I didn't mean any harm. That's what you get for asking questions by writing a note to your boss. Anyways...

I'm looking forward to being done school. I think that I have officially decided to go ahead with the manager training at Maxi. It really feels nice when your bosses acknowledge your efforts, and congratulate you for a job well done. I take my job seriously, even if I do work at a grocery store.

Merci Alex et Louise, je vous apprécie beaucoup!

I am determined to get better. After today, I realized that I have to start becoming less of a friend and more of a boss. Although I am the clown of the store, I need to be a little stricter. I have always been driven to do well at work, but this conversation has pushed me to do even more. I am ready to work harder.
