Man!, I wish I would have made a different decision. It’s been bugging me ever since I decided to not do it. I even filled out the form and didn’t turn it in. It’s a job that came up at work. I would have made about 30 cents more per hour doing it. Since I’ve been a ranger for four months I know our line pretty well and I know everybody. I also know our lines routine and schedule in making our ranges. In the job I would be a leader and make sure all of our work areas have enough people. I know I could do this job but I decided not to at the last minute.

There are about six people applying for the job. Three of them are not from our area. But three are from our line. One of them is Rhonda. For years I’ve seen Rhonda working hard as our quality check person. She is deserving of it. But I know I know I have some good (people) skills that could benefit our line too! There are two sisters (older women) also applying. Several people from our line have commented if one of them gets it they plan to go to another area. Every time I talk with someone about the “candidates” they always comment that they hope these two do not get it. I thought my friend named John would definitely get an interview but he didn’t because his application points were low. John has done this job in the past.
I just wish I would have applied now. I’ve been a ranger for four months. Now going to all the different areas is getting boring. I figure I’ll go to functional test (where they test the ranges before packaging them) or RACAL (an area that doesn’t require being an assembly line worker. They randomly test ranges to check their quality) in October when my ranger job time is up. These two areas could give me a rest from so much repetitive body movement. But there may not be such job openings available. Thinking of all these details make me regret my decision even more. (GRRRRRRRRR!!!!!)
