wooooooooo job!
YAAAAAAAR MATEY
so i have decided to go to a job placement office tomorrow morning. because this is getting rediculous. I don't have a bad work record, I am reliable and hard-working, but I have no experience in anything except the army really and no one wants to hire army mechanics cause we dont have certification and mechanics have to be certified to find a job (in...

It's not Colorado's fault! Thats silly!
fuck. still no job. Finding a job is not proving to be an easy task. I've now applied at pretty much everywhere in town. No one will fucking hire me.
Well, thats a lie. Hot topic might, if I would go through this half hour phone interview. Automated phone interview I should say. You know those annoying machines companies have when you call them that...

Damn it all to hell- I just gave you a buncha ideas then I signed myself offline somehow before sending it through. SUCK!
Anyway- among the stuff I wrote to you- the best idea I had was a flagger. Orange jacket orange flag waving -stop sign toting person. Guess how much those mo fo's in Portland make? 28 freaking dollars an hour. (Delete this post as soon as you read it)
You need to pay to take a training course- I think its like a few hours long. I think it's 160 something bucks. (more than pays for itself)
I'm not sure where you'd go to find out where to take the course. Maybe you could ask the unemployment office. The girl that told me about it- (I asked a girl wearing the orange vest) told me she saw a sign for the course at the unemployment office.) Even if they don't have the sign up- maybe they will know where to take the course.
*shrugs* it's worth a shot
other job ideas:
messenger (need a bike)
waiter (need a brain n a good memory and a good attitude)Hella good money at fancy smancy places. You'd have to wear a long white shirt and a tie. (Don't go sleeveless to your job interview)
loss prevention- Guys make about 10 starting out- Try asking Target or wallmart) the regular managers won't know anything about it- you need to specifically ask to talk to the loss prevention supervisor- or you'll never get noticed- never)
ask for more info if you are interested in tips and tricks for the interview process.
Hugs n stuff

I think my new catch phrase should be "panties aren't the best things on earth. Just next to the best things on earth."

That's weird- I was just doing a websearch on panties. JK
Or should I say JK-KINDA. Cuz it's kinda true- but it didn't seem so perverse five minutes ago.
The five second rule generally applies to me as well- as long as my hamburger doesn't fall into my friends garbage disposal. My best friend actually wanted me to pull it out and eat it- cuz it had not been 5 seconds yet. *shudders* It had melted cheese on it too- so it was extra gooey and able to grab lots of little microbes n shit- GROSS. Big fat pass.
You'll have to excuse me. Now I have to go shake off the oogs.

been home a while now. no job. no real news. A friend is back in the hospital, but I think she'll be ok. I have lost almost 10 pounds since getting home. I can't believe how greasy the school food was. I knew it was bad, but I didn't realize it was that bad.
ellebelle:
I lost a shit ton of weight since being back in Ireland from vacation in California. 10 lbs this month alone. I've just been detoxing/ and parasite cleansing. I've also cut most simple carbs and I've only been eating complex carbs and protiens. I've eatin dairy a couple times but I'm trying to steer clear of most dairy too. I'm using soy on my cereal. Drinking tons of water. Haven't had a coke in forever.
I pretty much HATE cardio. Don't mind weight training. I need to condition myself to beleive that cardio is fun. My friend Citrus does that. She's looking wicked cute.

I got straight A's again guys.
Except for one A-. I think that still counts as a 4.0 cumulative, but I don't know.
Last night we had a really fun party. It involved a few 12 packs of lost lake, about 30 coronas, and a 30 pack of pabst. Me and this guy who have been quabbling for years decided not to fight anymore. And...

I actually wrote to Pye today and told her you were doing good in School- I am glad It wasn't a lie. It just seems like you are always saying you aced tests n stuff. I'm sure she'll be proud.
