Job Hunting Update!

So yesterday I printed up my resume to take around, and today I did just that. Started at Taco Time and totally name dropped (For those of you who've never been in one, to me it's a mix between Del Taco and Taco Bell, but since it's Idaho Mexican food, it's worse)

Then I dropped by Gator Jacks, a Cajun themed restaurant (go ahead, guess how badly I'd like to work there) and they told me they'll probably be hiring a month or so into the semester if/when people realize they can't handle work with their school workload.

Then I stopped by Jimmy John's, a Freaky Fast Gormet Sandwich shop, where I have an interview at 10am on Thursday. I was supposed to print up an application, but I couldn't make it work so luckily they accepted the resume I had. Excited for another interview!

Then I went to Gringo's (another Mexican food place, but this one is a sit down restaurant, but I don't know if it's any better.) and it was sorta the same deal, supposed to apply online, but I couldn't get it to work, so I just gave them my application.

Stopped by Sammy's to see when Heather the Hiring Manage gets in this week, and I'll be going back Thursday at 8:30pm. I really want to work there, more than the Cajun place, it's closer to home, and I know I'd eat there, which is a factor, because every food place I've worked people have asked me my opinion of what's good, and I LOVE burgers and fries and shakes, so I'd be all to happy to give my opinion. I think it'd be perfect.

Then I made a quick stop to a place called JB's, which seems like a Marie Calendar's or an upscale Denny's. Dropped one off their, and the waitress said they'd get back to me if they started hiring.

So that was this morning. Not too exciting, but (I think) very productive. Going to go to Porter Park to read and draw once my new flowers arrive. I made a deal with a friend of mine that if I start reading and drawing more, he'll start practicing his trumpet again. Not really much incentive, but a deal is a deal. Ive got my Zentangle book that my Grandma gave me, and my Glenn Beck book. Once I finish it I'm allowing myself to read a Louis L'amour book. But not until, because then it's not reward. And with my currently very boring life, I need something to look forward to. Right now it's the Flowers, the book and my friend FINALLY coming up for the semester.
