Well, I finally got around to making a few phone calls today as follow ups and introductions. Here were my findings. (I only made 2 calls though, so don't be too excited. K? K.)
Phone call number 1: I called Altamont, the bead store in Auburn that I applied to, to follow up and see if they had gotten my application. They had. YAY! They aren't hiring at this time. BOO! So, all that time and work I put into that beautiful resume was basically pointless. Oh well... I suppose it was worth it. They are going to keep the resume and application on file and maybe if they need additional help contact me at some point. What should I learn from this? Maybe I shouldn't get my hopes up and plan my whole life around getting a job when I have no idea if they'll need/want me or not. *sighs* Oh well.
Phone call number 2: This one was the the event planning lady at Lake of the Pines where my grandparents from my mom's side live. his call was a little more fruitful and encouraging. I found out that I can get a booth at the 4th of July picnic! Hopefully this won't interfere with any celebrations of our own, but it's a chance to sell my jewelry and make much needed money, so that's a plus. It costs a little bit to rent the area and table and such, but I think it'll be worth the work of setting up and the small fee for the booth. I really hope this works out!
Well, now that I've shared those annoying and great news updates...
THE GIRLS ARE HOME!!!
That is probably the best news I could give you. *grins*
In other news... I get to try to figure out where else I may be able to work. There are a lot of decisions involved in choosing a job you know, and none of them are exactly fun. Should I work in retail at one of the stores in town? Maybe I could work at Ross and be a cheerful, nice, kind changing room girl. That could be fun right? *winks* I could also go to work at a coffee shop, although that might not be my cup o' tea. (Get it? That was quite a funny pun there...) I could also work at some other random place that I haven't thought of yet. Please be praying for me as I try to figure out what I'm supposed to do with my summer! I feel like I should get a job so I can make enough money to go to Jackson Hole Bible College, but maybe I'm not supposed to. Why can't everything be super simple? I don't know.... *laughs*
Have a good day y'all!!
I would suggest looking into the coffee shop idea. I worked at a coffee shop and it is SO much fun. I think you would be great at it and really enjoy it. Prayin for ya!
