UPDATE!
I immediately thought of Unsolved Mysteries when I wrote update. Like "UPDATE. The missing children were found living with what we believe to be a large gnome under a bridge in france..."
My update isn't nearly as interesting, but hey, it's a friggin update!
I've been working pretty hard at my two jobs so that I can live close to comfortably and pay all my bills in full and on time. It's been helpful, but I am very tired. Lately I have been looking on craigslist and such and sending out resumes to anyone that might pay me at least 10 bucks an hour for full time. One of my submissions happened to be to a staffing company. I wanted to stay away from that and get a job on my own, but it turns out that these people are really helpful.
I met with my "Staffing Consultant" yesterday to go over my resume and some of my skills. I also took a Microsoft Word test, a typing test (55WPM hooray!), and an attention to detail test. After that she spoke with me about a client that was interested in me that I might be interested in working for. It sounds really cool, it's for a reception position at an upscale grooming salon in Los Angeles. I would be making 10 bucks an hour and I'm guessing there might be a little bit of sales to it since she mentioned commission also (which she said averages at about 400 bucks a month! hooray for that!). The client also requested someone who wouldn't get starstruck being as they have some celebrities that bring their dogs there. So THAT's definitely exciting. So I guess I'd have to just put on my professional face and realize that they are humans too, and they are not that special just because I've seen them on TV. haha and hopefully I won't turn into some annoying namedropper if I get the job. I've run into a few of those while out here. Boo.
Well that's about it. I need something to sip on, and then I have to go to work. Boo that.
