This sucks. (Stupid job-related rant)

The BBQ Pit

I’ve spent three weeks now trying to get a job. I thought the movie theater had hired me, since they’d gone into dress code and everything, but then I call them today and the manager says since I’d be gone for a month, it wouldn’t make sense to train me when I’d only be around for about 8 weeks.

GodDAMN IT! Now I’m right back where I started, because these guys didn’t have the balls to cut me loose earlier, only now I’ve got three less weeks and I’m even LESS hire-able. That’s three weeks I spent sitting around my parents’ house doing jack shit, because I thought the bastards were going to hire me.

Thanks, fuckers.

Looks like I’ll be painting fences again this summer.

Oo! Oo! You could trick someone else into doing it, in the mischevious spirit of 19th century rural youths!

Wait tables. The turnover is so high in the profession, that it’s not uncommon for people to work at any given place for only a month or two (or less). And, of course, don’t volunteer that you’ll be leaving after 8 weeks when you apply.
