Whoops!

After last night's "I have no job!!!" I got two calls for interviews today. Here's hoping one of them pans out. :D

Also just realized... I have a rought draft of my undeadbigbang due in a month. A FINISHED story rough draft. How many words of 5k have I written?? NONE...ZERO. At least I have a complete outline of what the story is. It's gonna be Amy Allen's Slay-Team story. Hopefully it'll work out because I love the idea. I even made up a monster. :D Maybe a job on the horizon will help soothe the writing waters.

good luck with your interviews! It's a step in the right direction, in the least :)

Thanks!!
It is. One of them is to work at a grocery store bakery the other is a call center for Directv and once I've been there for 30 days I get the big Directv package for free while I work there.

How's your job going?

mine is fine! we had a big Company VP visit that I didn't have to be around for since I was too new and would prob fuck things up - hopefully everyone will be relaxed now that this has happened.

the bakery could be deadly, but tasty. I love baked goods. Free TV is nice too, but I bet people are real pissy when their cable goes out.

Sweet! That's always nice.

That's what I'm worried about. Hopefully it'll be one of those I'm around it so much I don't want it types of things.

The free TV would kick ass but man I really honestly don't think I can go back on the irate customer route. But at least it would be over the phone and not like the time someone tried to fight me over a $20 movie late fee. Ugh.

it happened to me when I worked at an ice cream shop...at first, awesome. Then, suddenly, ice cream was not so amazing anymore (until I like, stopped working there for a week).

customer service over the phone is probably far more manageable - I hate it when people get in my face, and especially when they are just in the wrong and are belligerent about it. I could never do phones, though, I got all worked up calling from admissions when I worked in college - and these were kids who had applied!

I just got a call from my Graphic Design professor about a graphics job at a newspaper so hopefully I can get that. Which would be way nicer than talking to people all day, especially upset people.

that sounds lovely...and it's probably a decent shot, since you're getting a professor to recommend it for you.

HUZZAH!! I got a call from the advertising place for an interview and the woman doing the interviews is a woman I worked with before at the newspaper. This, this is good. :D

hoooooray! doing graphic design for the ad firm? I used to work at an ad firm and really liked it - it's nice to work with creative people who aren't so creative they can't function in an office environment.

[crazyfoolstiney.livejournal.com]

Yeah the position is only part time though but STILL. I can make there what I make full time doing the call center job. SOOOOO hopefully it'll work out. :D

YAY CONGRATS! :) Hope the interviews go well.

Thanks!! I think they went well. The second one especially because I've worked with the interviewer at our local newspaper so we spent half the interview talking about being thankful for getting out. Lol. Now I just hope her boss thinks I'm a good fit.
Good news is seems like the impending job situation has budged the block far enough that I've thankfully started on my bang story. Though it is funny looking up top toys and shows for 1984 & getting the A-Team... Yeah, Google I can't use that in an A-Team AU story. Hehehe
