I had been living on borrowed time and now it's over. I am officially painted into a corner. I am trying to avoid getting a job where I have to stand all day. The tax places are hiring people to wear the lady liberty costume and dance out front. For a second I thought about it, then the reality would be I would maybe last one day and not be able to move the rest of the week. I just don't have that in me.
I went to get all my paperwork turned in so I can get assistance. But they have 30 days to get it to me. My DVR worker won't be taking my case till mid February. I just don't want my housing to come free and I don't have any income. I am trying not to let my emotions fall because of this. Not let it affect me negatively. I had a phone interview with a cool company that isn't far from where I live. I was excited about it but alas they didn't pick me. Another company e mails and wants to see me. When I look on google maps to see where they are they are three buses away and 1 hour and 40 minutes ride one way. The third bus is in another city so I would have to pay cash to ride it twice a day as well. It was a 'financial group' which doesn't scream 'we want to hire you'.
If I could just get in at a fashion company or something that would be great. Trying to change paths is a grind. I wouldn't recommend it at all unless you have lots of money saved. I am tired of looking for work. I registered with caljobs then I get a text from some company saying they want to interview me for a work at home data entry position. It was creepy sort of. I got into a chat with a person and it was like an interview. I guess this is the future. But of course I feel like this is shady too. But it's through the state so maybe it's legit. But I don't have any faith they will hire me either. It's not adding up. It's almost as if having experience and skill is a determent nowadays. That if you have them, you expect to be compensated, and no one wants to do that. The cool company down the street paid a livable wage, which was something to get excited about. But alas they didn't want to see me for an in person interview.
I counted, and I have made 15 new skirts in the past 2 months. Pretty good track record. I might just stay in all weekend and sew.
It started raining Friday night and now Sunday morning it's still raining. I watched two good movies yesterday. 'Under the skin' and 'Nightcrawler.' I am going to try and score some more movies and get some sewing done. I want new Frankenstein t shirts.
Saturday morning I get an e mail from the work at home company saying the want to hire me. They sent contracts that I am supposed to print out and sign and scan back to them. Then I can start work. I told them I would do that Monday. They said I would start my training on Monday. It pays a ridiculous amount of money. Like I can move out in a month money. And not to section 8 housing, market rate housing. I am a little nervous. I have had so many false starts. I am afraid to get excited. I want this to be real. Not a scam.
