get a real job

The past couple of weeks I have been handing out resumes and sending resumes online like crazy. I have bugged everyone I know that might be able to help me get a job. I have humbled myself and applied for jobs I would normally not apply for and yet I still have no success. I’m worried that i might not have money for the school year.

My dad is willing to train me to be a Dental Assistant. He says he prefers ones trained by dentists rather than schools because school-trained assistants always have to unlearn bad habits. I don’t actually know what he means by that, other than the obvious.
I prefer being trained to going to school, because I think it depersonalizes (wow, big word!) the experience. Folks who learned their trade through apprenticeship with a skilled teacher are usually better than those who went to school learning from someone who wasn’t good enough to actually earn a living with their trade. For proof, see “Those who can’t do, teach!” No offense to teachers, including my mom!

I have a job but I work as a Nanny for a family friend I get paid alright, I work under the table so I don’t have to worry about taxes or anything, but because of this car companies and phone companies see that I don’t have a job so it would be harder for me to get these things. For example when I bought my cell phone I had to give them a $400 down payment because I had no credit. Not fun..

I got my first interview as a reception/admin. I am excited to finally break out of retail. I can;t wait.

This is going to be the toughest goal ever considering the economy.

Got an internship in my field. I’m considering this 1/3 of the way there!

so i hear that unemployment is higher than it’s ever been in my lifetime. i guess i’ll be up against some stiff competish. katt williams says be happy with what you got.

i’ve been working for my mom’s small business since graduation, which is what i was doing on and off in school as well. this’d all be good, except it’s kind of lame and a shitty job for a real adult such as myself, ‘specially with this bachelor’s. that sounds high and mighty, but whatevs. i think i’ve hit the ceiling of what they’ll pay me, considering how shitty they pay all their employees, and it’s good for life as a knucklehead, bad for paying off house AND car or being married w/children.

i’m not in too much of a hurry, since my presence is helping my mom out and there’s nothing to heavy on the horizon. so i put my shit up on monster. we’ll see.

I found a job right down the street at my favorite restaurant. I’m in the service industry and I couldn’t be happier! At least until I finish school and start getting paid to do people’s makeup…

Yeah! I got a second, but really it will be my third interview tomorrow a.m.
This position is for an Ophthalmology Assistant which I would love to do. I need to get back into the medical field as I feel that is where I am the most interested and the most strong.
I have already had the first interview. Got called back for a 2nd interview with the Doctor. Wasn’t selected that go around, but got a call for another interview. This time the interview will be with 2 doctors. One of the docs is the same one as before plus an additional doctor. They are doing some “restructuring” of the department and not sure where this new assistant will end up or which doctor this new assistant will end up with.
I’m confident I can excel at this job and I hope that shows in my interview tomorrow.
