I am scared.
I am scared I will not find a job.
I'm trained in bankruptcy. I don't have to do that line of work. But I don't want to be a waitress. I have nothing against that profession but it's not what I want to do. I have no experience in it. I'd like to have an office job.
I went to Snelling yesterday. I'm hoping they'll call me back but having my mother tell me they never called my father back scares me. What if they don't call me back?
There's Talent Tree. My mother suggested I go there since she knows an employee there.
But yes, I'm scared.
I'm scared of not being able to pay my bills. I'm scared of not making my car payment. I'm scared I'll never be able to get a new car so I can get out of the lemon I have now.
I guess Monday, I'll go to the Division of Student Affairs Office of Career Services and start there.
And the funny thing about this all? I'm not scared what will happen to me once I finally ever do get a degree. I guess I need to find a subject to major in first.
Which, by the way, I still haven't gotten an advisor yet!

I don't think you should have any trouble finding a job. You have office experience. Everyone I've gone to for interviews has told me they can't hire me because I don't have at least a year of experience. I'm scared too though. My brother wants me to move to Atlanta, and I'm going to stay with him so I can find a job (two jobs actually, that's what it'll take to survive there). But I can't find a job here, so what will make me able to get a job there? It would make me so happy to be out of this house, but at the same time I feel like I won't be able to find the jobs I need. Anyway, I'm sure you won't have any trouble finding a job.

Posted by: Kristina at September 27, 2002 2:18 PMhonestly? snelling sucks. i've used them, my mother's used them and they really don't get you anything.
if they have an office team, stivers, or adeco down there, i'd try those.(my mother got her job at TWA through office team. she was a temp at the traning acadamy for like 6 months, then decided she wanted to fly.)
My best advice is if they don't call back.. Call them. That lets them know that you ARE interested and not just filling out applications anywhere. Good luck!

Posted by: Tammtamm at September 28, 2002 8:05 AMI'm going to give Snelling a week. I'm going to look into other options, too. The school is going to have a career fair soon so I might go to that.
