Farewell Roundabout...Hello Monaco

Last Tuesday I quit my job at the Roundabout Theatre Company, after three months of working in the TeleSales Department, I had to leave. I was going to see if I could survive through last Friday, but the thought of calling another person was just nauseating. My supervisor, M. was really cool about the whole situation. I just didn't want to burn my bridges with the company because I do want to work for them again in their education program.

When I walked out of the Laura Pels theatre where the offices are located I got this feeling of relief. I knew that I had done the right thing. I now have my nights back, I'm not stuck in a cubical dialing a telephone for four hours a day and soliciting past subscribers to come back to the theatre.

I couldn't leave the Roundabout without having another job lined up so I interviewed with Club Monaco on 5th Avenue and they hired me three days later. I decided to go back to my retail roots, for now. So far so good. It's like riding a bicycle, it all comes back to you. Everyone that I work with is great. I get along with all the managers and the store is Club Monaco's Flagship store, which means it's the best one in New York City and it's tied to corporate. I've been getting good hours so far and I do love their clothes, they fit my body like a glove; can't complain about the discount, it's fabulous. I think, I'm going to stay with Club Monaco for a while, I'm just tired of bouncing from job to job. It's time to settle for a bit.
