Well, the interview thing was interesting. They handed me a sheet of questions like "What is your understanding of this job" and "tell us a situation where you have used skills that you will need in this job"
I had 10 minutes to jot some notes on all the questions. Then I was brought in to a room with two guys who weren't allowed to...

Wow. That sounds really painful. I'd probably soil myself.
Thanks for the pic comment, btw.

Are they going to make you take a lie detector test next?

Wednesday I get to do the thing I dread most in life - the job interview. They're horrible, humiliating, demeaning things. This is a city job, so I will probably have to do a bunch of stupid tests and kiss ass more than one usually does.

So how'd it go? How did the "SO I CAN PAY MY FUCKING RENT" answer suit them?

Hmmm...
I thought I was at the end of my rope on the job search, when late this afternoon I got a call to come in for an interview for a killer job with the City of Portland. Maybe I'll be holding off on the truck school til after that interview.
Damn flaky people called a month after they said they would - I guess...

Awright - I've had it!
I give up on looking for a job. It's just futile. I'm either over or under qualified for everything. The few things I am qualified for get so many applicants that there is barely a chance.
So you know what I did?
I went and signed up for truck driving school.
Yep, in a couple of months I'll be east...

you may've heard me. when do you usually listen to kalx? i was usually on during weekday afternoons- i used the moniker 'anne with an e.'
my husband is rick sylvain. he'd already been there 3 years before i started, and is still pretty well known in the local punk scene. he's more the punk rocker in the family. he also started 'kalx live!' on saturday nights. he's still there, but doesn't dj anymore.

Watch those hookers at rest stops! They'll just open your cab and walk right in!
Never think about your money or it will disappear
I was sitting there Sunday, Checking the old bank balance and said to myself - "Good googuse! You managed to save a couple of hundred bucks! You're a fairly responsible adult for an asshole that doesn't have a damn job!"
Yesterday - had to take the damn cat to the vet cause he had a flea...

money seems to dissapear no matter what tactic the brain uses. sick, aint it? sick and true. and so sums up life.
prudence:
i'm curious- which sf venue did you work at, and when? perhaps i was there while you were working. do you still live in the bay area?
sorry for being so bitchy about your comments about rap music. i just hate it when anyone says that they hate a certain music genre b/c, in most cases, they haven't really bothered to learn about the music. this happens most often with rap and country. i believe that ALL music is valid, and it all deserves to be heard.
of course, it's equally wrong of me to immediately jump down someone's throat when they say they don't like a certain type of music w/o first finding out why. i'm just overly sensitive, sometimes

How come the mail never comes when you're expecting something?
jeremy:
well how fun would it be if it did come? I think the post office is just trying to add a little spice to everyone's lives.
Ok, maybe they just suck.
