After working part time for eight years, I finally went out and got myself a full time job. Too bad it didn't last a year. So, tomorrow I will trudge to Unemployment and put my name in.
I started job hunting already but it's not looking very encouraging!
Best offer so far was 10 shifts a month; all weekend, all 2nd and 3rd shift. The HR person was a little testy with me when I said I would think about it. But I had another week of full time work ahead and she was really pushing me to start immediately.
Who wants to work for someone who doesn't listen or doesn't care?
Like I said, that was the best paying offer. There is a 4 week long opening in July, 4 hour days, that I could take. It's an hour away. I guess that's groceries for a month, but what about the car I just bought?
Do I sound whiny?
Here's the thing.
I drove a 17 year old Saturn into the ground and then did a stupid and wonderful thing. I bought a 4 year old Subaru. Pale Gold. I love everything about it but the payments.
So I can't afford to work part time anymore. (part time work is fantastic, if you can afford it. I highly recommend working less.
So, I write, look for work, make time to call my friends. And wait for things to click together.
