(no subject)

I feel totally accomplished because I have now applied for 6 jobs (7, if you count that unpaid webzine one. But their website is down right now. So.), and now just has to wait. For stuff. Have an interview with these guys next Thursday. They called when I was trying on a top, so there was a lot of scrambling.

Anyway.

I'm such a bad, bad person, for being weak. Phoenix: Endsong was just too pretty. If I do get a job, though, I might celebrate by getting Sandman...

Weak.

And currently? I have so many issues with my Dad it's not even funny. "Are you sure you want to get a job in first semester? I mean, shouldn't you wait until you get used to university? You'll have to put in the hours. Didn't the lecturer say to dedicate 10 hours a week to each subject? You can only do more, not less. What sort of student are you if you do less? And why don't you get a job at Coles? It's closer. Or Baker's Delight, they're always looking for people. What sort of restaurant in the city? Ohh, that Railways Credit Union would be a good place to work at, get that job!" Yes, see? Issues.

EDIT: BUGGER. I'm obviously spaz. I can't take that job with the Credit Union! It's full time! *facepalm*

Ooh sounds interesting for ya Jee. But whatever you do... DONT GET A JOB IN SALES!!

... okay.

Well. I haven't applied for any sales positions. Is it really that bad?

If you dont mind bothering people and being pesky and generally despising yourself, then no. Oh yes and if you like attempting to reach impossible budgets when there's been like 5 people in the store your whole shirt, then it would be right up your alley.

Jewellry stores tend not to get a lot of business, y'know.

Sales could be fun in other places. Like a COMIC STORE. Or a BOOK STORE where you get DISCOUNTED BOOKS.

yeah, but thats not hard-core sales. Which means no commission either. But at least it will be fun.

It's not like you get commission anyway, what with the impossible budget and all.

'5 people in the store in your whole shirt', would be more interesting (this stemming from your other comment)

[identity profile] lilacparrot.livejournal.com 2006-03-04 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
I'd need a bigger shirt ;)
