Crossing my Fingers!!!!!!!!!!
I had a job interview last Saturday but nothing came of it. I have been applying everywhere here in Bullhead City and also Kingman which is the next town over. I haven't had any luck yet, but I did have an interview today for a staffing company. The staffing company will hopefully be able to help me find local jobs in the area for anything with my job qualifications. I can only hope that they will choose me first. By the looks of the people that were in the waiting room with me, I am sure I will be first pick. They told us to dress business casual, so I dressed business. Two guys that came in behind me were wearing regular t-shirts, one with skulls on it and the other had flames on it. The gal in front of me was wearing a white over sized v-neck shirt that was hanging off one shoulder which exposed her wonderful bright blue bra, which she tried to cover up with a black unzipped hoodie. I told my self at this point, I think I might have a good chance they will hire me for any upcoming jobs. Out of the 20+ people that were there, there was about 3 of them that were dressed appropriately. So all in all, at the end of my interview, Denise, my staffing agent, said that she knows of a position that she would like to send my resume to. I appreciated her statement and shook her hand with a huge smile and said "Thank you sooo very much". I walked out of the office with my huge smile, got in my car, put my convertible top down (since today was 74 degrees) and turned up my music while saying to my self... "Today is a good day".

Getting into gear, here in Arizona
Finally things are coming together with school. Living in California and trying to apply for school in another state was harder than I though it would be. When I got here to Arizona, I was told that I didn't finish my registration. I have talked to a wonderful counselor here and she has me going in the right direction of where I want to be. I am taking the Education program to get my AA with Early Childhood and Elementary Education Emphasis. Since I missed the semester that just started, I am going to take several on-line classes till I am able to start my summer classes. I take my Assessment test next week. Next step will be choosing the classes I want to take on-line. So unfortunately I was unable to jump right into school, but it's for the best in the long run because I am searching for a job which is also harder than I would have imagined.
As for finding work, it's been a big disappointment so far. When I first arrived here, I decided to post my resume on-line for jobs that fit my qualifications to make the most I could out here. Since that wasn't going so well, I decide to post my resume for anything close by. The next thing I did was walk into the local Mall and applied at 11 stores, including the Movie Theaters. This weekend I will be going to Laughlin and applying at the Casino hotels for house keeping... yes, "Housekeeping....." I actually would prefer to get a job like that for now since I will be doing my on-line classes. I don't want a job that will be stressful at all so this way I can just do my job and come home and focus on my school work. Wish me luck this weekend for finding a job. I need it.
