I have decided that I need a job, because A, I need to buy my own trombone B, I need to be responsible and get my own life C, It is pathetic that I am seventeen and have never had a job
I applied for a job at the Organic Grocerey Store a few weeks ago. RJ drove me down there and wrote me a refferal and introduced me to the manager as his friend, and I filled out an application form and turned it into said manager and was very friendly and smiley and everything. I heard all about how awesome the job is from Rob and RJ when I told them I was planning on applying. It is easy and fun and the people are cool and they start you on eight bucks an hour.
But they haven't called me back yet. So I got a job at The Bagel Store. I went and filled out an application form, and they called me in for an interview, and now I am hired. Basically, during my interview, the guy spent ten minutes telling me how much it's going to suck. They start you out cleaning stuff, and you get minimum wage until the end of your 30 day training period, after which you get a quarter more than minimum wage. At any time during your training period, you can quit or they can fire you and it is not a big deal and there are, quote, "no hard feelings." I... am hoping that the Organic Grocery Store will come save me during that time.
What I should really do, though, is get an office job. This weekend my aunt Kathleen hired me to come into her office and work for her. She gave me a file cabinet and told me to shred everything in it. It took me four hours. I got paid fifty bucks. The thing about shredding is that although it is boring, it takes no actual concentration, so I just spent four hours thinking about whatever I wanted to. And playing the "see how many papers I can put in at once without the machine jamming" game. It was an incredibly sweet deal.
Anyway, we shall see how the Bagel Store thing works out.
