@Serena: H'ONOES!! Isn't that the competition to your male-creature's work? O_o Okay, kids... rule number one: you can only have food fights if it's all in good fun :3 rule number two: you can only trash talk each other's restaurant if it's in good fun. Rule number three: screw he rules - you both have jobs ^_^ *YaY* ~Kat throws confetti all over Serena~
@DK: Yeah, I've heard those are horrible. Not only are they confusing, but obnoxiously long (as in, there are questions on the form that have absolutely NOTHING to do with the job description nor the qualifications for said job)... We were dealing with 3 of the 4 of us (the husband-creature and both his parents) being out of work for the majority of 2011 with no money coming in... not even unemployment insurance *shot* Eric finally got a job at Dunkin' Donuts the last week of September. His Mom starts a new job this Friday. She & Dad have been out of work for over a year (they both resigned from our township's fire department at the same time. He was the Fire Chief, she was the Fire Safety Marshall - 2 of only 3 paid positions on an otherwise volunteer fire department). Dad's to busted up with injuries and "Failed Surgery Syndrome" from major neck surgery in 2010, so he's fighting to get SSDI. I'm the only one who had a steady income last year, and I haven't worked since Jan 2002 :/ (I have 2 insurances and SSDI, so though money was tight, our bills were for the most part covered).
The economy just sucks ass everywhere right now, so any job you can get is a GOOD job! (Eric stepped down from his job as office manager of an accounting firm- because the accountants were pulling some borderline illegal crap that he didn't want to be part of. Because he quit and the company suing that firm went out of business (therefore giving him no one to testify on his behalf that he was not involved in the illegal activity, but rather was giving evidence to the prosecution)... so he didn't qualify for Unemployment. He FINALLY swallowed his pride and took the donut job. He should be thankful he got THAT. There are just no jobs in Arizona- especially not in rural areas like ours. He has a 30-40 minute commute to "the city" (6500 residents LOL), because we have no commerce in our village that isn't family owned and operated.
Keep pluggin' away at the online applications. Something will cow through if you are diligent ^_^
