Has job!
15 years ago
Well, I finally got a job after my 1.5 year hiatus. I'll be working in downtown San Diego at Luth Research doing cold calling for the Scarborough survey, a very large compilation of who watches what on tv, listens to what on the radio, watches or reads what news, and when. Minimum wage (8.50 an hour) 5 days a week, 6-8 hours a day. That's the basic schedule, though things aren't always consistent. It's gonna be a lot for me, I've never had this much in the way of work before, but I'm gonna give it my all.
Now, I have to figure out a few of the major kinks before one of them costs me my job. The most obvious one right now is the transportation issue. I need a car to get to work. I need money to buy a car. I need to get to work to make money. See where I'm going with this? My mother doesn't admit or probably even know it, but she has purposely tried to keep me in a situation where she has more control over me than she should, at least considering the fact that she doesn't exercise it in a productive way a LARGE majority of the time. Every time my dad tries to get me a car, even with plans for me to pay them back, she will suddenly back out and I'll end up stuck driving the 10 mpg expedition that SHE owns and controls. Before I let myself get too in to this rant.... :P
I also need to figure out what I'm going to do when the semester starts again, whether I'll be able to keep my job, if and what classes I'll be taking, whether or not I can figure out a place to move to so I can start claiming myself as an independent and getting my government aid that I'm currently denied because my parents still claim me as a dependent, and a few other things.
Can't think of what else I wanna say right now. Squee ya later!
Oh, and GAWD people start messaging me more often! Seems like I barely communicate with a large portion of my friends anymore!

Congrats on the job!! I'm sure you will do fine. I can understand the transportation issue, too. Fortuanately, here in KC we have a pretty decent public transportation system... well depends what part of town you are in. I wish you all the luck with that issue and the controlling Mom thing. (which I again can relate to) Keep us updated so we know how ya like it. And I'm sure all will start falling into place once you really look at school schedule as well.
