Can I get another jobie-job already

I've been sending out resumes like a mad man. I'm not getting any call backs or emails. I'm going to have to eliminate my college experience. I'm looking for a temporary job. When you go for a shit job these days you might as well look like you have nothing going for you. I couldn't come up with the money for college this term. I have five classes to go. I need a second job just in case I am denied grant money once again for the summer and fall term.

I don't want to work two jobs but you have to do what you have to do. I was working two jobs up to October 2011. I get to my second job to only see they are shutting down shop. No warning. Just rumors. I thought I had time. I started feeling the penny pinch around the new year. My other job is second shift. In a few I am going to fill out an application for a 6 am to 2 pm job. I hope I get it even though I will be shit tired and miserable. I know I will.

Moral of the story is go to college right after High School. Don't get caught up with the wrong person or crowd. Certainly don't marry that person. Get your shit in line by focusing on your life first. Unless your last name is Gates you can't afford dead weights dragging you down. If I would have done it the right way I would not be in this mess. I learned it's easier to have the vigor of youth when you're a little older than the wisdom of age when you're a lot younger.

Sheesh. Don't get me started. Hell, now I would say - don't go to college - go to tech school. My only skill is talking - asking questions and writing...

I'm screwed. Just read today's post. Blech.

Thanks flyhing high. It's tough. I brought most of it on myself. =)

Nicole I'm so close I have to finish. I should have taken 5 classes a term but I thought that would be too much with my work schedules. I screwed the pooch there. Now I'm fighting to get back to finish. College has been a waste of my time. Some of the classes they make you take is a bit much. I'm a criminal justice major.
