i'm feeling better about this temp job now, after talking to my supervisor, shelley, a bit about my responsibilities and how things work here and stuff. i was getting a bit overwhelmed by the sheer vastness of this project (again, had i started here three weeks ago, i would've been fine with the vastness, but this is the deadline week) and the ( Read more... )

yesterday was a super day! i interviewed with the historic Harrison Gray Otis House, and i think it went really well. SPNEA runs i think most of the historic houses in new england, and i met with the regional director of southeast new england and the head guide for the Otis House. they were both really nice, and the first thing the regional ( Read more... )

so here's what's going on with me.

i got a cell phone. call me after 9 or on the weekend, baby. i talked to miss rhett on sunday night and it was awesome--i had been wanting to talk to her for ages and hadn't been able to call because of the damn phone situation. but now i have a cell phone ( Read more... )

hi. so we're at amy & alyssa's house, because they kindly gave us their spare key so we could come over and use their phone. and these little ibooks are awfully fun to type on, girls. anyway, i called the two jobby job people i needed to call, but they weren't there so i left two messages. then i tried to call earthlink to cancel my services ( ( Read more... )

we're in boston. i'm sick of living out of boxes. there's a piano still here from the previous residents that hasn't been moved out yet. yeah piano. we don't have a phone yet either. we don't have jobs yet either, but i'm sick of job hunting for today, so i'm going to go watch some tv. one thing we do have, besides a piano, is cable tv. yeah

so. much. to. do. and i'm spending way more money than i want to be, because i want to see all my greensboro friends and have a good time with them before i leave, since who knows if i'll make it back for halloween or when i'll see them again. hopefully i can get a lot of errands done today and this weekend so i won't have to worry about it all ( Read more... )

good weekend. i played massive amounts of frisbee, which was fun. i also packed all day saturday and filled ten or so boxes and hardly made a dent. on sunday after frisbee (we started at 10am, and i was home by noon) i went to target and got walkie talkies for jorn and i for the drive up north and some modifications for the Pig, and i stopped at ( Read more... )

this weekend should be fun. frisbee tonight, and i think some of the new first-years should be coming, so it should be a nice big group. and i'm going to bring my nice new frisbee. jorn's going to a show tonight, so maybe i'll pack, or get stuff together to send to kd and elan. that would be good. tomorrow, packing all day, hanging with hanna ( Read more... )

got a call from the folks at TRC staffing today--a possible data entry and etc job, maybe starting when i actually want to start, and lasting for a month or maybe more. only $9/hour though. still, at $9/hour for 40 hours a week, i'd more than double my current monthly income. (speaking of which, i don't know how uncg gets away with paying us so ( Read more... )

oh, and the temp agency thing went well this afternoon. i was there for over an hour and a half. i took the typing test, and the word, excel, and powerpoint tests. 62 wpm with 4 errors, and good scores on word and excel especially--powerpoint i'm not so strong in, especially when my computer use tactic is to click on some stuff till i find the ( Read more... )
