I'm crazy nervous! I don't have a job. Now it isn't for lack of trying, since the Hubby and I moved here back in July of last year I have officially applied too 113 different places, and been rejected by all of them. I have only had one interview and three call backs but still NO JOB! I understand that maybe I'm not the most qualified person in the world, but I haven't been applying to professional positions. Nope, I've been applying for Waitressing Positions, Mall jobs, Grocery Store clerks, and every other mundane job that I could. But nope, see I think it's because I don't have the proper connections. Like when the seasonal jobs hit the fritz late last year, all of the jobs were taken in a SNAP because Suzzy knew Joan who was sisters with Martha who dated Johnny who once knew this girl that looked like Jane Fonda who worked at Forever 21 and BAM she gets a job. Or the worse ones, Suzzy is pregnant. BAM she gets a job. But here I am new to the area, not really qualified in anything, though I have been a waitress, and a clerk and a baby sitter, and certified CPR not to mention over 2000 volunteer hours at different children programs throughout high school.
A friend of mine just talked to his manager at the resteraunt that he works at, and mentioned my name. I walked in and did the application and ROCKED the personality test... but uh... so when did getting a Waitressing job require me to take a math test -- without a calculator -- and rushed? I am really proficient in literature, science, history, physics, and religious studies, but you put long division in front of me, and I will blow roughly 13,000 brain cells just to get the answer wrong. SO I am pretty sure, LIKE 98.99998% sure that I may not get that job because I am not smarter than a fifth grader, ( in math). :-(
But anyways, I think I am going to talk to a mentor that I have who knows how I can go about getting college financial support so that I can at least be going to college. HOPEFULLY.
So what is up with you all...? Anything new in the life of my non-existent readers?

You'd think that I'd be able to get SOMETHING, oh well.
