Well, I've been rather uncommunicative with my LJ lately... Guess it's probably because there's not much going on here. I sleep late, debate whether I should buy more groceries or make another library run, attempt to feed myself (generally disastrous), and check to see if the roses have died yet (nope! still going...).
Then I try to stay out of people's ways because they keep asking me if I have a job. It's rather embarrassing, because I don't. Even the bookstore I applied to didn't call me back. That seems kind of sad -- I can't manage to get a job doing book retail. Hrm. Maybe am intrinsically unemployable.
So my first wish of the day would be for people to stop asking me if I have a job. Then they should stop asking me what I want to do, because I haven't a clue. Then... hrm. They could feed me? Or tell me sitting around and hunting down out of print books in the library is a worthwhile pasttime, although I rather suspect it isn't.
Dum de dum... off to waste yet more time.

Wed, Aug. 13th, 2003 04:00 pm (UTC)Don't feel bad about not being able to get retail jobs. I had five different versions of my resume at one point, one was extremely dumbed down after I'd been called into several interviews only to be told that they couldn't understand why I was applying for the job. I was told that there was no point in hiring me since I would just leave when something better came along. Well yes, I wish I'd replied, have you seen the pay you're offering?
This will pass, don't worry. You will find something.

And thanks, I feel a bit better.
