Safeway lists the positions that are currently available by the time clock. As I was clocking in I noticed that the position for Assistant Deli Manger is currently being offered. Seeing as the people in my department do not want that level of responsibility, I could probably acquire it. Except since I’m going to Japan for a month in a couple weeks, I can’t really chase after that opportunity.

I’m pretty sure that the position doesn’t bring an increase in my compensation and it will bring about a TON of responsibilities which I’m not quite sure I’d want to take on. Kinda like Jim from The Office: What I have right now is a job. If I got a promotion then it’d be a career. Of course that’s stretching it a bit but you get the point.

Acquiring this position would however look nice on my resume. Right now I am a business administration major and acquiring the experiences from this would be very beneficial. I have already learned a lot just from being at the level I am already and from watching my manager.

Oh well… I’m thinking that going to Japan for a month is an opportunity of a lifetime and I’m going to continue on the path that I have currently set myself on. Besides… management in Safeway, at least on the store-level, is not something I am interested in the long run.

If the position is still available when I come back, then I think I will look into acquiring it.

Just in! Trebonte.com is now offering a new service! What could this be you ask? How could Trebonte.com become even more awesome than it already is? Yes, we know it seems impossible but we assure you that, while extremely difficult, it can be done!

So what new service is Trebonte.com now offering? Glad that you asked! We are now offering our review system! But doesn’t virtually every blog have one of those, you ask? Don’t be fooled by those other blogs that offer an imitation of what we will be providing. So what exactly is different with your review system? Why no other review system has Trebonte himself as their editor! Yes, it truly is Trebonte. We wouldn’t lie to you! Well… maybe we’d stretch the truth a little but it’s only for you own good! But that’s not the focus of today!

The focus is on our Review System! And our first Review is up! It’s on a Book entitled The Silver Ship and the Sea. Go ahead and check it out!

Not interested in Books? Our PR people told us not to say “Too bad!” and that “diversity” is a good thing so don’t worry! We will also be releasing Movie, Anime, and maybe even Game Reviews! What’s that? Yes it is almost too good to be true! (but it is this time, we swear!)

And that’s it for today. Stay tuned for our next big release!

The Trebonte.com Tech People

One trend in anime that recently has come about (or at least that I’ve noticed) is the number of Pizza Hut logos being showcased in the various anime that I watched. Code Geass is the series that i noticed it first. Since then I’ve seen it in Darker than Black and a couple more series. GGKTHX fansubs has done some tracking on it in Code Geass. I thought it was really funny.

But it makes sense! Even anime is now acquiring money from sponsors through the use of product placement. Why should anime be any different from TV shows at least in that regard? Capitalism at it’s finest.
