Can I scream yet?
I still need another job.
My mother is being really annoying about it, too. She got mad at me earlier and commented to the dog (yes, the dog!) about it, and I finally told her that I had done what she had wanted me to (and what I had wanted to do. I need money!) and had gone out and turned in applications to a bunch of businesses downtown in hopes that they would hire me. It's not my fault that they haven't responded yet.
I stopped by The Learning Game on Saturday and the guy had said that the owner had just left for lunch, so I left a message saying that I had stopped by and was interested in knowing if she had taken a look at my application yet.
She still hasn't called back.
I went to Borders on the same day, less than half an hour before that, and asked if the manager was in. Well, the floor manager was, but not the general manager, who is the person who does all the hiring. The f.m. told me that the g.m. wouldn't be back for yet another week.
Gah.
So, I stopped by Gap Kids. Yes, I actually went in the store. I am not ashamed. I need to make some money, and if I have to get up at 5 in the morning to help receive shipments, then so be it. I'm sure they'd at least pay well for making the employees be up so damn early. Besides, it might actually encourage me to go to bed at a reasonable hour. Meaning before 2 in the morning. Or 1am. Or maybe even before 12am. *gasp!* Ok, before midnight might be pushing it a bit. Or not, if I really would have to get up and be at work by 5am. I guess we'll just have to wait and see about that.
I also applied to Petco. I figured it couldn't hurt, and they had a sign up saying that they were hiring. I like animals, hell, we've had up to 6 of them living in our house at one time or another (although now it's currently 3: two cats and a dog). Granted, I wouldn't be dealing with the animals all that often, but at least I'd be learning more about the different stuff that's sold in the store. It might be helpful in the future.
Still haven't heard from the Rec. Department about the camp counselor job. Oh well.

On a completely different topic (yet just as annoying)...
Why is it that my parents will make comments about me eating ice cream out of the container yet when my mother does the exact same thing not ten minutes before me they don't say anything?
