I have terrible job luck this quarter. It's extremely frustrating, thinking I have a job and then losing it. It started at the beginning of the quarter. I got a job at the UCI Art Gallery, two days a week. It was nice. It would have been easy and the pay was decent enough. However, a few hours after I accepted the job, I realized I couldn't do it because I had a random musicical theatre lab that would prevent me from working one of the days. Argh!
I applied to a daycare center on campus. The hours they need people don't work with my schedule. I couldn't work at a café in the University Center because I can't guarantee my availabilty on Sundays. I applied at a ton of places on campus. I could have been a note taker for the Disabilities Center. There were THREE classes that needed note takers this quarter. The first two classes, both drama classes, got filled by someone who got there faster with me. I got a call this morning, saying they needed a notetaker for my bio class. First off, they woke me up. They called at 8:30am. I get there after musical theatre (which went fantastic today) and find out that the computer made a mistake. They actually already have a note taker for that class.
I had an interview last Friday for a tutoring center in Irvine. I had to take an assessment test, much like the STAR tests I took when I was younger. I applied for a job at the student center, and at the library. Knowing my luck this quarter with job and other financial things, I doubt anything is going to work out. It is incredibly frustrating. I need to get extra money for Ghana. Everything else in my life is going well. Why can't this work out?!
