My Job Hunting
So I have been looking for a job for a while now and I still have not managed to find one yet. Granted it might be because after I put in a bunch of applications I then decided to change my phone number. After realizing this when I woke up this morning, I pretty much snapped. I used so many profanities in the next 30 minutes that I even offended myself. Didn’t even think that was possible. So I might have had a job right now had I not been so stupid, but as most of you know my IQ is somewhere in the region of 82, so I have an excuse. So I went job hunting again today to see if I could get anymore applications. So I went to the place where I could get the most I could in the shortest amount of time…The mall. A huge mall at that, this place takes like a half hour just to walk around it. It had a plethora of stores to try and get a job at…HAHAHA I used the word plethora; I love that word but have never gotten to use it. In your face High school English class. Anyway…after being laughed at when I asked for an application at Gamestop, I realized that I was about to have a bad afternoon. Since I am getting rather desperate for a job at this point, I was willing to go into any store to try and find one. After being told that they weren’t hiring at a few more places I found myself in an awkward position. The only places left were stores that I would normally never go in, but desperate times call for desperate measures. So the next thing you know…I was strolling into a woman’s clothing store. I walked up to the lady at the check out counter and asked if they were accepting applications. And not to be mean, but she was huge, like the mother in the movie “What’s eating Gilbert Grape” huge. After looking around the store for a second I realized that this was like a women’s big and tall store and she must have been the owner. She looked at me as if she was trying to figure out if I was actually a girl…I don’t think a man has ever asked her for an application before. (Remember I am not in the best of moods at this point) In a very “mean” tone she then asked if I was seriously that desperate for a job to which I replied, “I don’t know, are you seriously that fat” (bad decision) I don’t think she appreciated that too much cause she just stood there glaring at me like I was about to become her dinner for the night. So I backed up slowly and then ran like hell out of there. I don’t think that they will be hiring me any time soon. So needless to say, I still don’t have any good job prospects yet. Now that I have calmed down since this afternoon, I would like to go back and apologize to her, even though she started it. But I also want to live so I think that I will just keep my distance from the mall for a little while.
