Almost a month ago I lost my job. I haven't posted lately because I didn't feel like talking about it. No, I wasn't upset. I was too busy ENJOYING my time off. Is that bad?
A day later Clark and I left for Texas (pictures to come) and had such a relaxing weekend hanging out with my older brother and his family. It was nice forgetting about the job hunting I had to come home to. Blah.
With Clark and I sharing a car I wanted to try and teach piano from home so thanks to craigslist it's starting to work out for me. I have 10 students so far and I am loving it!
My life in a salon is not at an end though. Trade Secret laid-off all stylists who weren't commissioning. Being there only 2 months sealed my fate. But they are working on paperwork to rehire stylists on a commission only basis. Boo. No more milking the clock. But this new set up is PERFECT for me because now I have complete control over my schedule which means I will have time for piano lessons and can still work at a salon to support us while I build up my students.
During this month break I was so afraid all of my clients would either find a new salon, or go to one of my co-workers. NOPE!!!!
I went in the other day to talk about my schedule and found out my clients love me. It's true. They refused to go to anyone else and the front desk has a list of people to call when I go back.
Not only that but one of my clients came in wanting a deep condition treatment. Refused to let anyone else give it to her.
YAY!!!
Sad to say, I would not be THAT loyal.
It's just a conditioner.
But I am so glad that all these people, most of them only coming to me 1-3 times, mostly once, only want me to do their hair.
Until August, I'm enjoying watching movies on Netflix, gardening, exercising and being COMPLETELY lazy!
