Sunday
Went to brunch with friends and family. Ate a lot. Then, slept afterwards way into the night.
Got a rejection notice from one position. Others are not even responding. Some staffing company wants me to join them for an informational meeting, Wednesday.
Called the one place back. Recruiter telling me 18.5 is the final offer. I am debating if want to go to the interview. It is downtown, and working downtown. Thinking off going to the interview and investigate if it is a good fit.
New to this

Friday, didn't hear any responses back. I responded to the job opening in St Louis. It is for only for 1 year. I had to reject it. Too far, plus heard reimbursement and benefits were lousy. I responded to another job, have to think about it though. Downtown and have to have training(extensive).
Progressing ok in wow. Some quests are buggy. Around the temple jumping on dragons to knock riders off. If the respawn rate of the riders was just a tad bit higher.
Easter brunch tomorrow with friends and family.
Things I have to do:
Do homework.
Apply for more positions, resumes, and cover letters.
Progress in wow.
Gym
Did some errands. Went grocery shopping. Unsure if I want to go out or not. Uber is not tonight's agenda.

Well, I had my interview. One interviewer after another for 4 times. It is just like a blind date. Wish some things should have gone better. Have to write a thank you letter. And, now I wait. Hopefully, I get it.
Got another offer, but not sure if I want to do that line of work again. Maybe if I don't hear anything in a week.
Passed my uber vehicle inspection. Guy did suggest that my rear brakes have a little wear, but passed.
Had to go back today to my parent's place, because dad got himself locked out again.
Did some more homework. Another application, resume, and cover letter.
Maybe I should freshen up some languages I took, or learn another language.

It's been 7 days. Applied to a lot of jobs, couple of responses. Job interview this Thursday afternoon. 4 interviewers, just like on american idol. Applied to more jobs and more cover letters today. It doesn't help that wow was offline for maintenance. Uber finally made me a driver. Think I going to do my first run this weekend.
Got to eat spicy noodle ramen for dinner tonight. Good stuff, but did I pay for later.
Sometimes, I wish everyone had a job. No unemployment. No petty reasons of termination. No fire at will. Got to love capitalism.
Did pass level 80 on candy crush soda saga. Damn you, gummy bears.
Is it me, or does skyrim controls suck? If you don't have a controller, it is really difficult to move your character.
Got to grocery shopping soon.
Plans for tomorrow:
apply for more positions, more resumes, and more cover letters.
major errand to take care of
few minor things to do
do some more homework

Good news, I have a job interview this week. Someone saw my resume, and want to schedule an interview with me. Nervous about the interview and grateful I got an interview. Went for resume and cover letter help at the community college career services. They were really helpful. No more objectives. A summary. Everything is automated due to the sheer volume per week of people applying. Key words aplenty on the resume.
Heard back from a co-worker at the old job. The project is still not finished. A whole month wasted on the project. Heard that the new manager hired someone to fill me my vacancy. Rumor is it's his friend. Same ages and from the same company. They set me up. Bitter taste.
Retooled my resume based on their suggestions. Applied to couple more jobs. No responses from the last week. Going on 7 days of unemployment. Need a job. Friends and family are supporting me as best they can. I feel I need to gain employment quickly. I heard amazon does turking. Unsure how they make money or what turking is. Is it really worth it?
Cross fingers for more responses. Another day done, Plan for tomorrow is to apply for more places, few errands, homework, hit the gym, and more applications and cover letters.
