Well. I’m moved in.
Kinda.
My life, in boxes, currently lines the walls and random corners of Damon’s apartment. I will probably live primarily out of said boxes until August 16th, when we will move into an apartment downstairs. (I had to move out of the studio by this Thursday.) Therefore, my current life state is without [...]

For Those About to Rock (I Salute You)
procreation is lame
HOW CAN A JOB BE “ENTRY-LEVEL,” and then demand 2-7 MILLION YEARS experience?!
*dies*
Fuck it. I can’t just apply to jobs in Bloomington anymore. Indianapolis, even. This is ridiculous. I discovered MediaBistro.com and realized that the jobs that really rev my engine? New York or LA. Am I cut out for that? I HAVE NO IDEA, because [...]

Application and cover letter to Kinsey, check and check.
It went a-little sumthin’ like, like, a-like this:
Dear K.I.,
I need a job. I gots da qualifikashunz.
And I like sex.
Love,
Jenn XOXOXO
More than anything it would be fun to come home at Christmas time to say to my entire family, “Yeah, I live with my boyfriend — in sin! – and [...]
Kinsey.
In case you’re playing the home game, here’s the next employer to be the victim of my job-search harassment:
THE KINSEY INSTITUTE
It’s an administrative assistant position, which I’ve done before — the only difference is, instead of typing up invoices for contractors, I will be signing up participants for research experiments in which sensors will be [...]

JOB SEARCH of OUGHT-SIX
Jenn vs. all twenty-something telecom/business graduates
Today I:
– Made good on my cover letter to Sunrise Greetings and called to confirm my resume submittal. People tell me this is an important job in the whole process, and I was kind of thrilled for even this slight hint of aggressiveness (which ultimately comes out [...]

So.
I’m going to be brutally honest — I haven’t been updating here because my current Life Story is so unbearably pitiful I can barely stand to live it, let alone write about it.
Also, if you use the internets but you don’t have the money to pay for it? They turn it off.
I am a mess.
And here’s why:
– [...]

Best Buy CEO Anderson Got $1.16 Million Salary For FY06
And I can’t pay my bills.
I call shanannigans!
I applied to Marketing FX in Chicago, and they want me to interview. I will probably head up there sometime late next week. It’s my curiosity that drives me more than anything else. I’ve always loved Chicago, but the [...]
I’m tellin’ ya! For the last time!
My supervisor at Best Buy, whom I adored, transferred to the Greenwood store before I left for vacation. With his position left open, it was assumed that I would apply for it. I did not. As a result, I have been bombarded with questions as to why I didn’t. It’s really hard to explain the answer, as it [...]
LOL
I just realized, my reactions to my Job Search are a lot like those of my former Love Life.
This could be bad.
I applied for a Marketing Assistant position last Thursday and was contacted on Friday morning: could I interview in Indianapolis, THAT AFTERNOON?! Hell-to-the-no. Not only did I have WORK all day, my parents were coming in later, [...]
Finally Lost It.
Okay. Job Search, Round #23948123.
Here’s what I’m thinking: I’m going to be an ACTOR.
Here’s all that’s required to be a Disney character!
+ Attend an audition based on movement and animation ability. <– I can move! I’m animated!
+ Dance experience is required for some roles. <– Hell-ooo I was born with tap shoes on!
+ Height ranges [...]

That’s it.
I’m getting on Pollstar.com.
And the places where they have the best live shows coming through?
That’s where I’m moving.

Yeah, the whole JOB SEARCH thing?
Can we be done with it?
Because I think I’m done with it.
If both my jobs,
put together,
were personified –
They’d be that Boyfriend that you know really isn’t right for you, but you stay with him because it’s just so damn comfortable.
The times I go into work hating my job is very [...]
They probably smelled the poor-ness in my cover letter attachment.
I applied online to three jobs around 3:00 am this morning. Three marketing/advertising firms, which I found on Monster.com.
I check my e-mail a NOON, and I have already been contacted by TWO for first round interviews.
Am I right in feeling that this screams desperation on their behalf? I’d love to think that they really like me/my [...]

In the midst of my job search, I learned that I can earn $15 an hour as a phone sex operator.
This sounds like more fun, and more money, than the job(s) I have now.
Sign me up.
Freefallin’
I’m looking down on 7th and Walnut at bar-goers stumbling out of Kilroy’s Sports. Tonight, many are in costume: a slutty angel, a man in drag, Fratty McFrat-Frat…
Me, I’m dressed up as “Music dork in glasses and cashmere cardigan, working an overnight shift.”
Jenn, on the Job Search.
I’m finding that, when you work 50-some hours a week, the energy [...]
