WOOOT yeah I know I should be saving the announcement that I moved back to Seattle 6 days ago but bleehh you all woulda found out anyway. I'm writing this because I'm irritated...... I didn't really get to experiance the "Economical Issue's" we are having full on in Montana.... BUT here in Seattle its so bad I'm already freaking out. I have about $1550 left and if I don't find a job soon I'm screwed. I mean I have enough for lets see.... 330 for rent 100 in food 65 for buss pass, 70 for my phone,and 15 for my CC's......soooo about 580 a month, which is nice if I had a job. So I'm set at 3 months including Feb.... that's if I keep to a strict budget..... But anyway it pisses me off I woke up at 10 checked craigslist found a few with phone #s on them and called them up. Got a interview for one and the other asked to bring in a Resume!!!! =D awesome. I sent out all the resumes on the net to other I think I can do and went on my way with Elle downtown, parted ways since he had work and went to my interview note that I was totally dressed up (thanks to Elle since mine where dirty) I walk in the door and the manager is interviewing a lady and then theres 3 others waiting..... WAITING. They where not dressed up as good as me cause im the shit like that. One of the people waiting was a kid my age, sadly he was dressed like he just got off school. It made me laugh inside because it was apparent he wouldn't get the job. Sooo I wait my turn and try and listen in on the other interviews so I can be preped for the questions she asks me instead of going "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" for 5 minutes lol. I wait to be the last thus letting that scruff muffin kid go first, his interview was probly the shortest out of all the people there. Then I go up and she takes a look at my resume and emdiantly notices im from Montana, so was she which was awsome for me cause I didn't have enough bussing exp for the job but she said, "We Montanains gotta watch out for eachother so when a greater position comes up ill call you." so it wasnt a complete waist of my time. Then I went to the other place , which was this East Indian Cafe place and it so happens when I leave 3 others are filling out applications as well..... fucking shit I hate this competion shit... everywhere I go 3 more are behind me and the exp curve here sucks, I mean how the fuck am I gonna be able to compete with all these people that have more EXP then me and I cant get a job anywhere....... Anywho I still love being back and hopfully my hard effort spent at the Downtown Seattle Library looking up jobs will pay off... I think next week I will try a direct approach.

All those people with more experience than you started out thinking just like you!
Just keep trying, you'll find something!

Yeah, it has been pretty hard here in the Seattle area for employment. I am signed up with about a half dozen temp agencies just for something short term. Even that, I have not had a call back for ANYTHING since signing up with them. You may have a bit better luck. I am up north of you a few more miles. Ask Elle, he knows me well. }:=)
... all the best of luck to you!
