Finally home again

All the employees at the Dodge store I spent the week at consider me the Company Hitman.
I was there 5 days, did 5 write ups, fired one guy, and put another on a week's suspension.
Everyone that has knows me very well for very long is surprised when I tell them that. They all say that they didn't think I had the heart for that. I guess that this job has just built my self esteem, but it is also that I have "become myself" over the last few years. I can be a hard ass easily these days because I have been shit on so much that it has hardened me.

Wednesday night I was sitting in my motel room trying to find something to watch on television when the phone rang. I picked it up, and a man said "What are ya doin'?"
I got goose bumps. It was Hawk. He had called my home store, and then the Dodge store to find me. He wanted me back. I asked him how many times over the years had we had this conversation... He said a lot. I told him I was waiting on Andy to make a decision as to what I was doing in the future, but I really don't think that Hawk is something I need to get back into, although I have never been able to say no to him before. I don't think that things will work out happily ever after with Andy, either. Is there really no one out there for me? *sigh* That is part of the reason I am working so hard to get my own store... Working 70-100 hours a week will keep me too busy to think about it.
