two job interviews! woo!
one tomorrow at 9 am at Office Max, and another at 10 am on thursday at Michael's. Both part time, but i'll freaking take what i can get.
now, just to wow them with my personality.
all the other places i dropped apps off i called as well, most the hiring manager wasn't in, so they took messages, JoAnn's i'm sposed to call on Monday, and Coffee's On tomorrow before 2... Value Village, the one that i thought would be begging me to come in for an interview, said "mmmmyeeeaah. don't call us, we'll call you if we're interested. kaythxbye"
the only one i DIDN'T call was Subway, cuz i so don't want to work there. if these don't pan out immediately, i'll call and beg them, too.
hopehopehope.

I used to work at Staples, which is a lot like Office Max. Not too bad of a job. Try to squeeze your way into Copy Center, or whatever it is they call it; that's where you'll have the most fun..and it's just..oh so much better than cashiering or customer service. :P
i don't forsee them allowing me to do such a thing anytime soon...
they're soooooo much more relaxed and understanding than office max. in a way, it is so tempting to quit office max and work there, though i love my coworkers at om (most days), and they DO pay me 75 cents more an hour than michaels.
my life would be made SO much easier if om would only schedule me part time like they hired me on as...
yes, it was VERY hard to go from completely unemployed and hardly ever leaving the house for 4 and a half months, to working 50 hours a week plus, and on my feet! >_
I worked at Subway for two weeks last summer. It wasn't so bad. :p I got a free sammich every day.
i still need to fervently look for a job, a REAL job.
although working a job that i wear a uniform and don't have to worry about other clothes suits my needs at this point.
maybe after i get out of this house and can FIND my things again, i will begin looking even more fervently for a real job.
you will be fabulous, I'm sure!!
although, in retrospect, i don't know if i would have done it differently...
You go get'm! Get them good!
and so much for being part time! michaels keeps apologizing for not giving me many hours, and i keep telling them i DO NOT mind, seeing as i work 40 hours a week at office max, and i still work enough at michaels to get the discount i want :) so what's a few hellish days a week where i work 14 hours straight? *shrugs*
Good luck!
i did discover that one of my coworkers had a deadjournal ;)
that would be grand!
Wish me luck as well, as I've recently joined the ranks of the unemployed. ::sigh::
unemployment is so freaking horrid. i hope to never have to deal with it again. i mean, it was nice having 4 months off; however, the havoc it wrecked on my ego and my moods and such were SO not worth it.
heh. it's in the bag. ;)
and since i DID 'woo' them, now i get to deal with the consequences of pissing them both off as i try to juggle both of them.
oy.
both have me scheduled for the same exact shift on labor day AND tuesday, and i think thursday as well.
i dunno what i'm going to do about that...
i think the cabin fever is heightened even more by my psychotic family! ;)
