Vacation week! (Due to lack of Internets.) But job hunting today. XD

No physical resumes going out today, due to the civic holiday and everything being closed, BUT! The internet doesn't stop for random long weekends, and neither will I!

Also in a smaller money-making venture, I'm selling a ton of old band merch online, so that I might be able to afford nicer business-y clothes when the time arrives that I actually get hired. Dress for the job you want, etc etc.

I did pretty well last week. I'm keeping this going. I'm going to apply for work on the days that I am not meeting people.

This week is a hectic rush of 3 interviews, one of which happened today. My goal is to perform well at all of these, so that I have choices in terms of where to go from here.

There's also a concert, so my goal there is to have fun!

I'm going to skip an interview with no notice because the employer was unbelievably rude, condescending, and accusatory even over the phone. I'm worth more. They can suck it! No, this doesn't exactly help in my motivation to get a job, but it helps me in my motivation to not forget my self-worth and settle for something where I'm going to get treated like a 16-year-old first-job part-timer.
