Ho-leeeee shit.
This guy walks in here for a job interview and my LAWD the accent. "Jess, ah hev a charb heenterveeyew with MADAME _ hat eight theer-teee!". Alright, Anatol. He can't even fill out the application correctly..! *slaps forehead* He needed another one ! " 'Scuze me, I hev feeled thees out incorrect, please...hev new one?"
AGGHHH! Watch them hire this guy. He'll be Russian #4 in accounting.
So I think I did okay in the mid-term last night. How could I not? It WAS open book, open note. You'd have to be a special to not do well. Just watch, right? We also got our group projects assigned. Lucky me, I got the Greasy Old Fullet in my group. But she is not so bad when she is away from Big Flaming Loser. She's actually...dare I say it...? Kind of cool. Who knew?
I finished my PowerPoint presentation for tonight. It's going to be weak, but I don't think he gives a rat's ass as long as we show up and do it. I predict much stammering and looking like a 'tard. OH WELL! Before class, I am going to a career services workshop on job search techniques. Timing is everything, I say. Indeed.
I did get a call about another job in the city, and I am trying to actually reach them so I can set something up. It's been a while: I can pull another early day here next week if need be. I just hope ONE of these places takes an interest. That's all I need. Something away from this dead end .
I also have nearly a dozen resumes to send out today after work and before school. I feel like I am at least really, really trying. Getting nowhere, sure...but trying.
Hmm. This Russian guy kinda looks like Harry Caray. Remember him?
I started eDiets yesterday. Rather, I signed up yesterday. 10 more lbs to go..or 15...!..and I swear I will be a lot happier. I sent a referral thing to my co-worker (one of the two friendly ones) because she is one of those people that will kvetch anc kvetch about being cow-like, and do nothing about it.
Oh yeah.....my credit card needs only ONE more payment, and it's PAID OFF! YES! After alll this time (let's not even go there), it is almost a $0 balance. Scooore. Time to save for an apartment, FINALLY!
Lesson learned: do not be a 'tard about money. EVER . Again.
