Working LIfe

Its are last day of not working and we are in a bit of a panic lots to do and only one day. We are both a bit nervous not really about the jobs but having not worked for so long. The tarp is up and we have a huge shady area now. Guess what more pool action and down to Parmerston for some last minute shopping. The only Target is there and
They have the biggest women’s clothing section I have ever seen.

Today is the day, Tina is working at the Mitchell Street store and I’m at Casuarina. Tina is 12pm-9pm & I’m 10am-6pm, so Tina catches the bus & I take the car.
Its pretty straight forward register work and stacking shelves of liquor. The staff are friendly and it seems like a pretty good environment to work in. Its over our first day working is done. It will be good to see the bank account finally going forward again after 12 months of shrinking funds.

It’s our second day today and we are both working 12pm-9pm shifts. It’s a long day and we have sore feet from not being used to standing up. After work Tina heads across to the Tap bar where she is quickly picked up by some Navy guys, while waiting for me to drive from Casuarina into the city. A pretty girl sitting alone in Darwin will not have any trouble attracting men. So a big kiss from me when I arrive just to let all the boys know she is taken. Trust me an engagement ring will not scare them off. The boys work on a hospital ship and are off to Indonesia tomorrow to help after all the earth quakes We have a beer an wander down to the Wisdom bar for another and listen to some live music for a while before heading home.
