Thinking of transferring
I am currently thinking of transferring to either one of the other two branches of Sparta: one located next to a public library, and the other is strategically located within walking distances of several bookstores and gift stores, and shopping centres.
Moreover, both branches are more pedestrian-friendly: they have pavements within 50-80% of my walk/bike ride from home to each of both, which consequently makes my trip much more pleasant.
And those two other branches are around 30 minutes of walking distances each, which is around 10-15 minutes shorter than the time it takes to reach the place I'm working now.
What about the current Sparta branch where I'm working?
I tell you, it's not a pleasant one at all.
Not a single speck of pavement could be found from the house to my work place, hence I always have to walk or ride my bike on the road shoulders.
Moreover, on those road shoulders I can see rotten and disfigured bodies, and some skeletal remains of dead puppies and raccoons that has been there for months (or perhaps years), apparently hit by vehicles.
Yuck.
Anyway, though such a transfer between branches is theoretically possible (I only need to talk with my HR manager and conjure up some good reasons for it), it is not actually as easy to do these days.
Especially with the Sparta deli being understaffed; they need us all here!
A friend of mine whom I call Sally in this blog has also expressed an interest in moving to another branch, but that does not seem laudable, not at this point of time.
I just pray to God that there will come some new hires to this deli soon.
I'm dying to transfer.
