I'm not sure if this shows job dedication or stupidity...

The job market is getting ridiculous

A 16-year-old student went to a job interview instead of the hospital after he and a schoolmate were stabbed yesterday.

Staff at the King West Vets veterinary clinic said the Central Commerce Collegiate student showed up on time for his 1 p.m. co-op placement interview. But when employees noticed blood on his leg, they called police.

"He did really well on the interview and we were very proud of him for sticking to the appointment," said veterinarian Kent Ackerman. He wouldn't say if the student will get the job.

The teen, the second 16-year-old to be stabbed in the Crawford and College Sts. area yesterday, was taken to hospital with minor injuries.

Job Interview!



The job was for a credit card/atm troubleshoot call center type thing. I interviewed with two people who I got along great with. It was actually quite an enjoyable interview, so I hope I got the job. They seem like fun people to work with, and I'd rather have fun working in a seemingly boring job, than be crazy bored working in a seemingly great job. Being productive and having fun are the most important things, especially since I just came from the most boring job on the face of the planet. I want to actually be happy in the next job I do, no matter what it is.

I really really hope I got it.

*Oh, and I hope if I do get it, that I get to wear one of those really cute headpiece phone thingys. Those are awesome!

3 Things:

:: I officially have a negative balance in my checking account from taking my son to the dentist today. Apparently my credit card is expired and my child support card was declined (wtf?). Fucking YAY.

:: I have an job interview tomorrow. I have to put extra thought into the interview outfit and hair since the guy I'm interviewing for likes pretty girls. I am not optimistic.

:: Oh yeah, and I fully hate life right now.

Job interview today. First one since getting "let go" back on fucking Halloween. I'm crazy nervous since I don't have a stellar record with interviews. I just get nervous. Which is stupid since I'm pretty laid back and get along with just about everybody. However, I can also be the quiet person who only gets super awesome after I've been around you for awhile. Not counting the fake outgoing personality I put on when dealing with customers/clients/whomever. All of which can be hard to see when I'm nervous. Ugh.

Plus there is a-fucking-lot riding on this interview. I have barely any money in my bank account. I am late on every bill except daycare and rent. I'm sort of paranoid that my cars will be repo'd. I probably need to check my cingular bill. Not that I have any money to pay that shit anyway. I suppose I'll be living off my credit card again. Yay debt!

Fuck today. I'll need a large alcoholic drink after the interview.
