Land of confusion
May. 2nd, 2007 12:16 pmI've been really quiet as of late, and for once its not because I'm at a lack of things to say. I have a LOT of things to say, but...well...
Things suck. Like really bad. I mean, that's not to say there aren't some good things. Krissie and Joe still have thier jobs, we're not at any major risk of losing our apartment, and obviously I still have internet.
Comcast basically turned me down out right. The guys I interviewed with said they would contact me in about a week, by phone, if they wanted me, two weeks by mail if they didn't. In less than a week I had a rejection letter in my hand.
Mike said he'd look in to it, but I haven't heard from him since. Not suprised, though. In fact, I'm happy for him because I know he's preocupied with his girlfriend, who seems to be a damn good catch. I hope he stays with her. Still, it'd kinda be nice to hear the phone ring from him every once in a while...
I've put in a ton of apps in other places, but either my timing is just shit, or they clearly aren't interested. I get a lot of false promises about calls for interviews, and its really starting to hurt. I really wish people could just tell you streight up when they're not going to even offer a chance to you. It just makes the waiting that much more difficult.
I went and interviewed with an employment place. They took all my information then gave me instructions to go online and sign up with thier client services. I tried to, but its rejected me twice now, saying something about 'nothing avalible'. My BS meter is going off the charts. I was told they were going to try to place me. Ugh.
Anyone ever played Kingdom Hearts 2? Basically, Sora is running through all these worlds, confronting friend and foe alike for information regarding his friends Riku and Kairi, and he either gets mis-information, cold leads, or out right lied to (and in some cases the person being questioned just dances around the subject or won't come out and say what they know). I'm about half way through the game right now and Sora has maybe about five peices total of new information after godknowshowlong of searching.
I'm suprised that kid hasn't screamed and completely lost it.
Cause that's how I feel, and trust me, right now I can make a perfect analogy of my situation to his. Only instead of 'friends' its 'work'.
In other news we're probably getting a new roommate soon, so even if I can't find work (which I hope is not the case) we'll have some extra help with rent. I feel kind of bad, though, because she's met me at a really shitty time for me, and last night I lost my composure really bad and snapped at Joe about the dumbest thing. Totally didn't mean to. For some reason him mentioning moving to Washington (something only he and Krissie had discussed) just made me snap like a twig. I appologized about the whole thing and had a really long talk with him about how I felt about everything. I know I'm not gonna be okay until I have a job agian, though.
So much for having my life on track...
Blarg. I 'unno what to say about it anymore. 23 is proving to be a shit year for me. All I can do at this point is hope that something changes. Soon.
Until then.
Yay escapeism~
