The Best laid plans...

Aug 18, 2008 14:40

I think I might die of money relate stress from things not working out as they should before D*C even gets here.

So my plan for this week (Mon-Fri and possibly Saturday) and then Monday and Tuesday of next week, was to go down to the Work daily/Pay Daily Light Industrial staffing service not too far from here and try and get some work. I figured out that I would need about $300 before D*C for room, food, and the 3 autographs that I REALLY want to get and, if I was able to make about $50 a day from the place I could totally reach that goal.

When I called then the other day they told me flat out that 1st shift is the hardest to get into because they "fill-up" their quota pretty fast with return-workers. So I figured that 2nd shift would be just fine and dandy. SO head down there this afternoon, fill out the paper work, "sign in" and wait... and wait... and wait some more and then they had too many people and not enough positions so I had to come home without having worked and without any money.

They said that they have like 15 or so people needed for something on 3rd shift and assuming that I don't pass out from exhaustion (no sleep last night) before it's time to head back down there I'll go and see if they can fit me in. I will also keep going back until they get me something (or D*C is here - which I have no idea what the fuck I'll do if that happens) in the hopes that I will at least be able to earn the $150 I still need for the room.

Have I mentioned recently that my life sucks and the universe really fucking hates me?

All that being said Save the Wiccy's Sanity Foundation is now open for donations, or if any of you on my flist are persons with money and would like to make The Wiccy a loan (to be paid back asap with interest) please let me know as you would earn my undying love and devotions and I won't completely lose the tiny bit of my sanity I have left.

Right, so now I go try to nap for a couple of hours before I go see if they can place me on something third shift. *sigh*
