Well what's new with me? I'm poor. That's what. My 2 year anniversary of working at my current job came around in September and I've still yet to get a raise. I've tried my best to find a new job that will pay me more, with no luck. The economy is hurting too bad. So, that's left me with my last resort. Getting a second job. I've applied for a few things, gotten a couple responses, and scheduled one interview. It's to help out a disabled woman 4-8 hours a week. With a little internet stalking and excellent deductive reasoning skills, I've discovered that said woman is def, blind, relatively young, of Indian decent and is a Doctor. Or, at least, former doctor. Gastroenterologist to be precise. I had to stalk her since you can never be too careful with Craigslist and it made me doubly weirded out when she said her name was Full Moon. I suppose she thought she couldn't be too careful as well since she used a fake identity to act like a third party who posted the ad. I can't blame her really. I'd be wary too if I were blind, def, had a bum leg and lived on my own. I tracked her down using her email address and her house address. Looks like she belongs to a family of doctors. I also found her name listed as a donor for some organization specializing in seeing eye dogs. So at least I know she's telling the truth about being blind. I get to meet her at 5:30 this afternoon.
Still trying to get a job as liquor promo girl as well. Have been back and forth with these nitwits for three weeks about getting an interview. I'm not really sure I want to work for someone so disorganized and unpunctual, regardless of how little time it may consume. Oh well, I can use the extra $100 a week. Working five hours on a Saturday for $20/hr cash isn't such a bad deal.
Yesterday I joined the gym at the end of my street. Now, let's just hope that my search for a second job doesn't eat up all the spare time I would've had to actually use it.
Also, I'm interviewing for a volunteer PR position with Gateway Pet Rescue. I love animals, and it'll boost my resume as well. So why not?
In the meantime, anybody who can find me a steady second job, preferably one that pays cash and requires little time... hook me up!
