Job Hunting take 3

Jul 02, 2008 11:28

Third summer of worthless job hunting.  I was supposed to have an interview at Baskin Robbins today, which was the first time anyone has even bothered to look at my application or resume.  Then they called me like twenty minutes ago and said that my interview is cancelled because they already hired someone.  Great, thanks.  Don't even give me the benefit of an interview.  I'd be really pissed if I found out they hired a high school student with no experience over me because at least I have some experience now.  Which apparently still doesn't matter.

One would think I'd be able to get hired at Baskin Robbins, which is like.. the lowest on the food chain.  Mom has been on my ass the whole time.  Apparently not being hired is also somehow my fault and I should 'try harder'.  Ok, I've submitted applications and resumes to nearly everywhere I can think of, and I've gotten one phonecall back and an interview that was then cancelled because they hired someone else.  Yeah.  That's all my fault.

All my friends have jobs.  ALL of them.  Except me.  Even someone that dad told me walked into a store, asked if they were hiring, and got hired on the spot with no interview.  And what, he expects that to happen to me?  No way in hell.  Nowhere I seem to go is even considering hiring, let alone considering me.  Is it because I'm a college student that they're not hiring me?  In a college town?  Or is it because I only want to work part-time?  WTF. 

work, angst
