I HAVE A JOB INTERVIEW TOMORROW

...It's a bit exciting, since it's the first job I've heard back about in months.


Plus it's at Guitar Center, and I do so love me some guitars. I figure I could sell em pretty well. Get a sweet discount and killer commission checks, I've heard, so my fingers are crossed.

congratulations, hope it goes well for ya
 
I am buying a small flat!! The one I was previously turned down for. The other buyer (who bid more than me) pulled out. I have scored a bargain, and it's in a great location. I also moved out of home on the weekend and am living in a nice new location with one of my best friends. I will rent out the flat for a while and save up to cut my mortgage repayments. Better still, I read a property report today which said the market grew last quarter...:D

I start back at uni in 3 weeks, work is good, I am reading some great books and having wonderful discussions with people.

Generally, life is as close to perfect as I think it can be. :)

Congrats to everyone who's doing well with work, etc. Could this be a sign that the GFC is turning around?

Good luck with the flat. :p

Well, my interview went great. The guy even said I did very good. But then he also told me that it'll be 1-2 weeks before I will know anything, and that "We'll call you". Usually this means "Thanks but no thanks". bah.

I've got less than two weeks to figure out how to pull 300 bucks out of thin air or else my school isn't gonna let me attend this quarter! I can't afford to wait.

Frustrating.

Hmmm...can't say i totally agree with this. I interviewed with the job that i'm currently working for, and i thought i aced it. However, after it was over, the woman said "okay, we'll contact you in a week and let you know." Once she said that, i thought, i'm probably not getting this job. Heck, i had my bags packed, and ready to move to a brand new city because i thought there was no chance of me getting the job. But one day, right as i was about to buy some train tickets to a new city (which was about 7 days later), i got a phone call and the woman offered me the job.

So if you feel like you gave a great interview (which you probably did), odds are you have as good a chance as anybody of landing that position, even if they say "we'll call you."

If it weren't for the scrap of dignity and pride I've managed to salvage, I'd be inclined to discreetly ask for a few small loans, actually. I've had to in the past, but only in emergency situations. I prefer to just make my own money, though.

Besides, I've still got a week and a half left of break, and I know a few various ways of making quick cash. Doing hair, selling artwork (when I can find buyers >.<)...Thinking of spending an afternoon making hemp jewelry to sell to my friends...lol

Wanna buy a necklace? hahah. I'll give you a discount. :D

Yeah, I know. You just don't understand how unlucky I am, though. lol I think it's a curse sometimes! I've had really good job offers based on my typing skills alone, but I can never find one that will work with my ever changing school schedule, or is too far away, or something. lol

But we'll see. He said he can't make any promises, but I had his vote. Not to mention my personality matches quite well with a lot of the staff. I chatted around with a few of the salespeople, and had a cigarette with another applicant. lol I also think I sold my boyfriend an electric guitar while I was there. Ohhh, and I picked out an adorable baby pink fender strat I'm gonna totally get if I do get the job. I've heard you get amazing discounts when you work there.

...that's part of the reason I want the job so bad. Plus the sweet ass commission I'd get...! But I'm not sure. The position is for Pro Audio...I think I'd end up being more of a tech than a salesperson, so there might not be commission, but I think they also get paid more.

It doesn't really matter either way. Desperation means I'll be taking whatever damn job hires me the quickest, and I'm filling out apps like a mofo. lol And I'm doing a homie's hair on his next day off.

There are two. one is a fuschia glitter, the other is indeed peptobismol pink. That's the one I'll get probably, since it's got potential if I come up with a cool design. :D :D

But if I get a job there I'll totally hook you up with a sweet discount. >.>
