jobs
so i called all these places to ask about jobs because i'm supposed to work on the Independence Clause of Getting Older. that entails having my own financial backup. so i called all these places--i hate telephones so much. i mean, i called
maple street bookstore (the manager was "out")
the prytania (they didn't answer the phone for some reason ?)
scriptura (they only want pernament employees...)
magic box ! (THEY only want pernaments too...)
lawn and tennis club **most embarrassing** (and i was getting desperate)--the guy on the phone, after i said "hi! i was wondering if you were hiring for the summer?" he said "like what?" and I replied (wittily) "Uh...Jobs???"
He kind of just hung up after that.
Ooops.
It doesn't really matter since I'm not a lifeguard and can't play tennis to save my life but it was terrible anyway.
I called the Painted Pot and Kid's Stuff but their lines are disconnected. It'd be so much fun to work at a kid's store. Or a craft shop. At Micheals they're hiring but it takes 20 minutes to drive there.
Then I tried Lagnensteins, Octavia and Blockbuster and they all said I could apply.
Yippee.
I really hope I get into the Shakespeare Festival so if the job thing falls through I can pretend I'm an actress and will live off adrenaline/books I get from the library booksale/food my buddy Patrick Fugit will donate to my cause (because he'll come and see the show and love me because I was a good Veronian Woman #6) instead of actual money.
