...'cause it's HOT!!!


I went arround randomly looking at businesses...Walked in Osco Drugs and asked to see a manager but ended up with the sup. and he told me they weren't hiring 'till June; pointing at a big booth with a sign "Job application" and a another sign below it "not hiring untill June," Ok, I didn't even see the humengusly huge booth but ya never know if someone got fired:rolleyes: Then I went to The Dollar Tree store and OMG:eek: :sick:, walked 3ft in, looked around and got the f out. Felt like puking *puke*...no I didn't puke but it looked like the last place on Earth someone would want to work at.

....Dropped in a few more stores and ended up at Walgreens. They were hiring for service clerks which BTW is mostly inventory, handling cash, ordering inventory etc...boring...maybe great to keep me organized but boring. They had an option to be Pharmacy technician which at least looked like something beneficial (unfortunently no positions available)...knowing what to use etc seemed like good knowlege to have, and they pay for the training:rolleyes: Then again it's a Walgreens and they probably pay $8 start...blll...:( ...So keeping in mind I need a job walking distance and for the amount of time the heep will be in the shop, why not apply at an apartment complex...either for sales or whatever available. Well, one down my street has a position available as maintenance. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKFlashback from a previous time I applied for maintenanceThey started at 10-12/hr!!!!:eek: HECK!!! Why not...good pay, easy stuff(fast learner), great to locate Jeep parts:D, maybe get more tanned and some muscle tone back:rolleyes:
So apartment complex are on top of DA LIST!


I even thought of working at a tanning place:D But I would be scared if Dennis Bill and Eric dropped in:D:p
