(no subject)
So I went out and picked up some job applications today. Wasn't looking forward to it, and it proved to be exactly as exciting as I thought it was going to be. None at all....
Nothing really looks promising either. I hate to be so negative about it, but I'm having trouble seeing why any sensible business would want to hire me, only to have me leave them in 2 months. I know I wouldn't (unless I ran a seasonal business).
Walked into Old Navy today, just 'cause I was over by the Lancaster Mall anyways. Not that I thought that JD (the LOD/manager who called me to tell me that things weren't going to work out this summer and that they just didn't have the hours to hire anyone) was lying to me or anything, but I walked through just to make sure there weren't a ton of workers. Felt a little more at ease when I really didn't see many workers at all; at least I knew they must have been telling the truth. No idea why they had about a loss of 600 hours a month from last summer, but nothing I can really do about it I guess. Still lame though, I was REALLY looking forward to working there; got myself all excited for this summer to be just as fun as last summer and was sorely let down. Now not only do I have to find somewhere else to work for a few months, but I have to start over and make a bunch of new work friends. All in all just really feeling bummed out. I guess theres always next summer, or maybe even next winter break.
Guessing that God is trying to teach me something here. Perhaps I've gotten too comfortable in my old routines and that maybe I'm supposed to be moving in another direction. Not really sure what he's saying to me right now, I wish I did though. Really just wish I knew where I'm supposed to be right NOW. Feeling a little lost and incapable of getting a job; struggling with some self image issues I guess. Wish I was stronger, but I guess that's just something to work on.
