How to get a part-time job
It made me
confident
 "About time I got up and acheived something!"
How I did it: Well, I decided to do voluntry reading again at my sons school. Every now and then they call me in to help with a child and I offered myself on a more permenant basis. My offer was excepted then and there. I don't start officially till January, but go me...... In only 3 days. Right whats next???????? Lessons & tips: A jobs not going to turn up and bite you on the bum you have to put yourself out there. Also when you get rid of the negitive mind set and think' just get it done' its easy. Resources: I'm a big one for voluntry work. I know alot of people who've ended up employed this way. Not only that, its a good way to get experience in the field you want to work in. |

How I did it: I think the best thing to keep in mind is to have confidence in yourself and be mindful of realistic expectations on both your part and your employer's part. Don't shoot too low if you have experience to do something more - and don't expect too much of yourself. Be content in the fact that there are only 24 hours in a day. Read how I did it…

I was just asked to do more work for the magazine I editing. Two days a week and NO EXTRAORDINARY EFFORT on my part. I work and look for opporunities and don’t say no. That’s the key.
I’m going to put this same post “under magazine editor”

But the only people that actually replied to my application turned me down. I guess it’s really for the best – I don’t actually have time for a part-time job, especially this year. Hopefully the k-uni work will calm down and I’ll be able to make a little money.

The editing job was part-time. Also I’ve gotten many part-time jobs in the past: the insurance company, cashier etc.
I’m putting this in the “done” folder.

At the moment i’m having to do a job I hate for someone I don’t particulary want to be around. However I am so relient on the money I have no choice but to grin and bear it. I want to regain control of my life by eliminating all the negitivity and feelings of powerlessness. I can make changes.

i have filled out over a dozen job applications in the past two weeks. this has only gotten me two phone calls for interviews which only got me one interview. i picked up three more tonight, turned one in already and i have an interview tomorrow at five.
whether or not my life will continue to move in the direction i’m hoping for depends on the next week. oy.
To out it blatantly, I’m a bum. All my friends have a job and earn their own way, whilst I’m still just scabbing off my parents all the time (and going through financial hardships don’t ease anything, either).
I’ve been looking into getting a job at my local Blockbuster (Video Store) and it just pains me that I don’t have the gall to ask for an application. I guess I’m too scared of rejection, and I’m not the most productive of people.
Could they hire a 16 year old part-time? I’m not even actually sure! LOL
Anyway.. A job at all would be nice. I guess it would prove to myself that I am mature and I can support myself

Guess what I got a call from a mag publisher I interviewed with over the summer. He wants me to come in for a few hours every day…so here it it…my opportunity to work with a magazine! And it practically fell right into my lap.
So this settles two of my 43 things..the part-time job and the mag editor…Wow…I’m going to do all 43 of these things!
