What's a not-so-big idea you've had which turned out to be brilliant?

1 Answer

Answer :

The complete flip (pun intended) of my post on the other question. I applied to my current job at Hannaford not expecting to get it and have now been there for close to 10 months. I have been named employee of the month for June and received a raise. I like the job a lot. I’m part time now, which means I can get 0 to 28 hours a week. I average about 25 currently, though, lately I’ve been getting 30 or more. I’m hoping to get a flex position soon which means I’d be guaranteed 28 hours a week and my average won’t have to be under 30.
