Fuck. You want fries with that? or maybe a frikken baked potato?

Yeah, well, after waiting at the library I find out that I didn't get the library assistant job, apparently there have been another round of bush related budjet cuts and the position has been terminated for the summer semesters. (although it reopens in the fall.) So, I took the Oh!Shit! job I had lined up

:( *hugs*

Couldn't you get a retail job or something? The long hair and fingernails might not exactly go over too well at Hallmark, but . . . what about Hot Topic? (Am I thinking of the store I think I'm thinking of?)

What about data entry?

[glass_snake]

I'm with Nysse on this one. There are a great deal of abundant, low skill jobs that are much cleaner than fast food. If you want some help finding one, I know a few places I could refer you to.

And businesses are pretty accepting of long hair nowadays. I should know! :) However, they'll likely make you cut the finger nails.

[sunyudai]

The nails are cut, actually....

Any places you have in mind, I'd love to hear. I'm willing to try anything at this point, I'm simply hoping to, ya know, eat.

Fast food is what I know I have, and I'm going to need a paycheck or two just to make ends meet while I look for somethin' else. I've figured it up, and i'm going to need at a minimum $600 per month this summer, and that's going to spike to $750 in the fall.

600/4=150, so if I make $150 a week, that will be enough, leaving me with at minimum wage 30 hours per week, although hopefully I'd be maiking about $7.00 per hour in which case 22 hours would be enough.

In the fall, I'm going to try and get my did to suppport me for the school year, and he'd probably be willing to shell out 500 or 600, so I'm going to need 150 or 250 per month, and so 10 or 12 hours in the school year would be more than enough.

I'll send you an email with my suggestions, rather than posts a small book here.

[bakadragon]

I close tonight, so call me either after 9:30 tonight or after 4 tomorrow.

And I recommend at least keeping Wendy's 'til you can find a sweet job - don't worry, I'll be looking for a job too ^.^ I know fast food sucks, but sticking it out for a month won't be disastrous (hell, I worked at McD's in the shittiest conditions for 3 months! But now that McD's is a hole in the ground, so I happy ^_^)

[sunyudai]

Tried to call, didn't get through so I left a message. I should be home all day today though.

I will have a frend over, but I think she wanted to meet you. Nysse

Although today may not be the best circumstances.

[soroth]

Yes, ditto to Nysse and Glass_Snake. I have another couple of possibilities I know of as well. I will talk to you about this Friday.

[sunyudai]

Sure. Look forward to seeing ya.

Ya know, we never did figure out a time or anything. Uhh... friday so I assume your working. Uh, when do you want to get togeather?

[alizarin_rose]

Is Wendy's hiring?

I have a shit job, but I could use another one. I need money so that I can buy a car.

^_^

[glass_snake]

What's your availability for work? Can you work 8-5 or just part-time around school?

Also, do you have any simple technical/admin skills, such as experience with Word, Excel, or PowerPoint?

Based on all of that, I can send you an email recommending some places to try. Being business places, you'll need to dress and talk pretty conservatively, but you can probably find placement for any availability or skill level.

[alizarin_rose]

I don't have a whole lot of skill with excell, or power point, however, I can type.

I also don't have a car, and I'm not available on certain days because I'm taking a summer class.

I appreciate your help though.

I'm not cut out for office work.

^_^

[sunyudai]

It was :) I got the position.

Actually, they might be looking for more. It's the wendy's off of manchester. (S on 270, R on manchester, Wendy's on the right.)
