Well, things have turned around. I had an interview yesterday that went really well. It's for setting up A/V shit & playing stage manager for hotels & shit. They also have editing & duplication services back at the office. The guy was a really cool studio rat from Culver City. It could be a good slacker job. He's also talking about starting an audio editing suite, which I could help with.
The interview was really relaxed. More of a chat, really. The office is in Beverly HIlls, which is a little inconvenient, but not too bad. The hours are 1-9pm M-F w/ intermittent weekend hours. I told him that I'd need $15/hr w/ benefits. They have their own transpo. He seemed ready to give me the job on the spot but still had to interview a few people. I should know Monday.
I also got a call back today about a resume I emailed a Physical Therapy office on the westside. I think I should interview to hear what they have to say. The thing is it's part time $10/hr. Obviously I can't live off that solely, but it would give me experience and a chance to see if that's what I really want to do.
It's so pleasantly confusing. After all the emotional swaying over the last 3 1/2 months of unemployment, it's definitely a boost. I went to Footsie's last night w/ Glen & Carter and then slept in today. I'm thinking I should enjoy my last few days of freedom.
Should I play it safe and just take the A/V geek job? Do I go aggressive and take both? Or, should I take the part time one, concentrate on school and try to get another part time job? The thing is I need health care, so I should at least take the A/V job. I guess until I have the other interview, I'm really getting ahead of myself.
It's just such a relief because I haven't known whether or not I was going to have to surrender to LA and move in w/ my Dad. It wouldn't have been the end of the world, but all my friends are here. This has been my home for 15 years, 11 in the same rent controlled apartment.
I know it doesn't really exist on it's own, but I would at least like the sense of security or stability. It's been five years of bouncing around from job to job ever since I quit that corporate job I hated. I know that my happiness won't come from the right job, but I'm just looking for appropriate work that will let me do what I want with the rest of my life.
I really like being back in school. It keeps me occupied, well, my mind at least. It reminds me that I've got long term goals, something concrete I'm working towards. I love being around other students and talking about stuff. I know I should consider going to a more challenging school, but it's nice to be back on a campus again even though it is LA ghetto college.
There's an exquisite student that sits in my class. Last night, she was wearing jeans with the cuffs rolled up revealing blue socks with purple windows on them. Brunette locks with natural auburn highlights and wisps of hair off her bun and hanging over her eyes.
Let's roll around on the floor while everyone else is at war.
Pink chewed polished nails
sculpted italian marble skin
She says the things I'm thinking
whispering secrets
velveteen voice
adolescent eyes that confirm my time in years

of course - it sounds like school is really your first priority. so if 'dream job' keeps you from that ... you gotta go for school.
jeez. in the end, i guess that wasn't very helpful?
but congrats on your job search going so well.
