I am dumbass...hear me roar...
Actually, before I even attempt to get into this one, there are a few housekeeping things I have to take care of.
First, a VERY happy belated birthday to ih8stupidppul. And apparently from one of her posts, it certainly was.
OK, so it was one item of housekeeping. Sue me.
No kind of follow up from my "lunch date" from last week. Just as I suspected. I sent another e-mail earlier. I'm not expecting anything from that either. Were you all surprised?
So, had an interview this morning with a personnel agency about a job they were looking to fill. I won't go into specifics about the job. It's not really important. So, I go to the agency this morning, fill out their usual paperwork and then proceed to take a test in front of the computer, basically seeing how fast and accurate I type, plus other basic application stuff (Word, Excel, etc.). Needless to say, I managed to get through that no problem.
Then I sit down with the "recruiter" and go over some of my background, plus learn a bit more about the job. At this point, I'm given another test that the company bases part of their hiring on. All math stuff. Should have been cake for me. Well, out of five questions, I only managed to get one right. I guess all those years of being a whiz at math have gone by the wayside too. So, I was told thanks for coming, and sent on my merry way. Fucking wonderful.
I left there, thankfully my car managed to start, and decided to go back to my school (since it was early and I had nothing better to do - and to chance that my car wouldn't start when I went to leave there - it actually didn't right away - and I still have my lovely brake grind) and see what if anything they could do for me. I think it turned more into my bitching about how that school in the end seemed to be more a waste of my time and threw me deeper into debt (that is starting to eat me alive). There's probably only two people from my class that got a job (and I'm not even sure about that). Of the three people that I still talk to from my class, I know two of them don't have anything at the moment (or at least not related to anything we did in school) and I think the other one might have something. Although, I could have sworn that last I heard, he was doing some kind of construction or other trade work. Anyhow, I already e-mailed the guy I talked to in Career Services my updated resume, but I'm not holding out any hope. It won't be long now. I'm smelling bankruptcy, and giving hand jobs for crack on the corner.
I FUCKING SUCK!!!
I'm going to go lay down and see if I can forget this miserable shit life right now. Feh.
