Well it has been a week since I wrote....i probably will update every week. I had two interviews last week, one was with a company called LifeTouch . These are the people that take school photos. This will be a fabulous job....but I am up against over 100 people ...so I crossed my fingers for that one. I also had a second interview...with Al at starbucks. I think the people that work at Starbucks are awesome...and they would be fun to hang out with. The thing is though that there are a million places to work that would be fun...but i need something that I know would be fun for a long time...taking photos would be aweseome...but...it is only for a few months...but it could lead up to more work...Anyhow ...having said that...i did get a call back today for the photo job...and it makes me very happy...kinda special....we are down to 15 people...and that makes me happy. So even if I dont get it...at least I did well enough in the interview to get a second one. Anyhow this week I am going to call Barclays exchange...cuz the money is good..and...it is full time...and i htink it would be really interesting working in a pawn shop. So..that is my update...I still dont understand why a bunch of the places I have applied have not called me....but...alas...no biggy..there will be work....see you all...pam

Day 1

OKAY so mainly this blog is just for my own record. I am an almost 50 year old mother of two wife of one owner of three....and unemployed. OH and grandchildless...WTF

Anyhow I am on the jobhunt of my life. Apparently I am too old...too large...too limited...to what i am able to do. Anyhow I have had an interview at Starbucks...he promised me a second one but I guess he is not in any sort of hurry to hire me. I also talked to a guy at a pawn shop...which at first seemed scarey...but once I went in I was really quite fascinated....do you guys know what kind of deals, in these times, that you can find in a pawn shop at really good prices...seriously...there were some good deals there. And for the men out there...tools...they had millions of tools. I applied at a vet clinic...which i would also love cuz i love animals....but I dont have very much computer experience...and my cover letter and my resume pretty much showed them that....so I dont blame them for not calling. And best of all I have an interview thursday with the company that does school photos...fun...what could be more fun than taking pictures of kids all day...i am going to try and convince them to make funny funny faces...
Anyhow thats it for today....cross your fingers for me...maybe i will be working soon..
