i want to get a job

i’ve never really had a good job, to be proud of. i’ve always had stupid little jobs just to pay me to get by in life. i finally went to school and got my dream job, which was to work at MAC cosmetics. i got paid 15 dollars an hour the most i’ve ever gotten paid at a job. i was sooo happy. i was ontop of my world for the first time, ever.

during the holidays i worked all the time, everyday, long hours. they loved me, and i was sooo happy everyday, i always gave 110%. . . then the hours slowed down, because the holidays were over, and then they were letting people go and never calling me, so then my money ran short. so i stopped paying for my cell phone, then i got kicked out of my parents. luckily i had a friend who let me stay with him, that was 7 months ago. without my phone MAC never calls me, they dont have any way too. i never called them and gave them another number to reach me at, so my bad. but now its been so many months im embarassed to call them, even tho i can, because im only a freelancer. technically i still work for them, i just need to give them a call.

but now i moved in with my boyfriends parents because our lease on the apartment was up. and we’ve both been living here for the past 4 months with no jobs, but he’s in a band who is actually kinda making it, and is signed with poboy records and hes making some money that way, plus he gets paid from his old job because he got laid off. so we survive and his parents are the most amazing people i’ve ever met, and they take good care of us.

my friend said as long as everything is going smoothly and everyone is happy to take this time to chill and relax while i can. but i just feel like a bag of shit sitting around with they’re son everyday eating all they’re food and never having money to do what i want to, even tho my bf usually pays for everything.

i dont know where im trying to get with this, the point is i’ve gotten sooooo use to sitting around with him everyday that im comfortable, i’ve become a homebody. i never wanna go out on the town and get all dressed up, i wanna just sit around with my bf and drink beers and watch tv. i need a kick in the ass or something, and the sad thing is my parents could give two shits, what i do. and his parents are the complete opposite, theyre always wondering what hes up too, and they talk to him everyday, theyre amazing, theyre everything i wish i had as parents.

then sometimes i get depressed cuz im upset that i dont have a family who will do anything for me and love me like they do him, but then sometimes i feel blessed, like my dad in heaven sent him to me, so i could see what a real family is like, and im sooo lucky to be a part of his family.

i wish someone could force me out of the house and force me to get a job!

hoping someone can help me.

So I’ve been unemployed for about 3 months now. 2008-2009 has been the worst years for employment for me. I call it a run or “Parker Luck”. I don’t really want to jinx it buy I might have a gig coming up pretty soon. I just gotta jump threw some hoops on TB shots and what not. So hope me luck. Becasue I’m ready to kick the parker luck. And ready for a brand new day.

So I’m trying to get a job now. It’s kind of hard to when you have no credible skill and every place in town isn’t hiring. I know every place in town isn’t hiring because I went to every store and left applications there, talked to the manager, and found out. I live in a small town so jobs are hard to come by. I’m trying to get a new apartment and start school in the fall, both of which are going to be very expensive.

I guess I’ll just keep looking and try and keep a positive mentality about it.

Wish me luck..

i think if i make my self more busier ill feel less…bored…i want to work at brusters or sum where if theres ice cream im there :D

lol where i am there like 5 places to work and 150 or so job seeking teens… But im determined to get another job after quitting my old one >.< \, ive already applied somewhere. fingers crossed.

goodluck to everyone =]

i haven’t work a day in my life and i think its time for me to get a job the only problem is im 1 year to young and i hate seeing older people buy stuff at stores and im just sitting their without anymoney or a creditt card i just want to work to buy clothes and food and everything i need because my parents dont give me allowance and i get clothes money like once a year
i hate it my life! i wish i was someone richer

I recently quit my job of 30 years. I was so very unhappy. I didn’t think about what I was going to do next. I have been looking for jobs and have even gotten a couple only to quit after the first day or even before I start. I feel like I am becoming depressed. My husband is losing patience with me. I am a LPN. I don’t even know what I want to do. I just keep taking jobs to get him off my case. I am so miserable and have a daily pitty party for myself. I am 55 years old and feel more like I am going through my adolescence now. I need some advice. I cry more than I laugh anymore.

i got a job at hungry jacks/burger king and worked there for 7 excruciating months. i quit

I’ve been working at a middle school now, for the past few months…and even though I’ve taken a substantial pay cut, I’ve never been happier…

I finally landed a job that is in one of the fields I wanted greatly to persue – broadcasting! I’ve been under doctors orders not to work at all since my ruptured brain aneurysm back in May, but I havn’t recieved any help whatsoever from our province’s lousy social assistance program with either welfare or disability.

So, this had me in the place of having to perpetually borrow $$ fromj family & friends, even though neither have much to spare, and it’s had me feeling depressed & useless for some time now.

I did what I always suggest to folks that they do when in similar boats – I put word out there to friends that I was looking for work, and lo & behold, my friend Randy, who works in radio, mentioned that his station may be looking for overnight people to do the frequent on air updates of weather & traffic.

Well, I applied, had interviws, and went in for a training session of sorts where they aired me anyway, and now – NOW I HAVE THE JOB!

It ain’t a big position by any means, but it is a great foot in the door to an industry which I’ve worked in on and off (never anything steady!) freelans for years now.

I credit a few things for my current position..

1) Help from a friend!

2) Experience & talent to back me up!

3) PERSERVERANCE & a positive outlook!

So, I’m happy as all get-out now!

YAYY!
