Well, I decided to give it my best shot and see how things panned out, so I went into the interview as shiny, happy Tara (I DID, TOO!).


That was an extraordinary waste of my time.

Generally, when someone refuses to shake one's hand, it is not an especially good sign.

SUE EVERYBODY

[ninjalicious.livejournal.com]

Send their supervisor a note rescinding your desire to work there based on the rudeness of said interviewer.

that sucks!

I know you hate Philly and all...but you might get more action, with a more liberal company over here...we don't care about hair color, tats and stuff like that...

While I'm sure you gave it your best shot, I'm sure they could smell the liberal on you...here, they smell it and don't care...as long as you can do your job....

I've got the distance-willing-to-travel thingie on Careerbuilder set to 25 miles. :/




And I don't hate Philly, per se. I'm just not all that keen on working there. There'd be no where to park my car and I'd have to pay city tax on my wages. I haven't ruled out working over the bridge, though. I'd just complain heartily about it, every chance I got. ;)

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN STAFFING AGENCIES EXIST.

You'd be complaining in Philly, and that's what counts.

I'd be complaining in Philly, outside of Philly, near Philly. You name it.

And don't think that just because I'd be working in Philly means I'd be spending more time over there, either. I know your ninja wiles well enough to smell a trap!

Hanging out with me is a trap.

Hanging out in Fishtown in two thousand degree weather is a trap.

Make the evil day-star go away.

What is this "heat" you are referring to? Is it something that happens outside?

[theepumpkingirl.livejournal.com]

when they won't shake hands, you should just bust out in a song/dance routine. fuckALL.

wash the sand out!

Lissen, working here *is* better. There is more of a likelihood that you can find a company/office/attorney-in-need-of-an-assistant that is wierdo friendly than in the suburban jerzoid sector you choose to nest in. Yeah. What I said.

[mrbadluck.livejournal.com]

anyone who acts like that,,you dont need pookie,your better than that. and now you have a little time to find somewhere you can be happy at. your no doubt smarter than most other people in the job market today. the trick is to find an employer who isnt a fucking backwards fuckhead judgemental piece of shit. fuck that prick ,,if you would like tell me where he works so i can shake his hand,,,right after i wipe my ass with it,,,mmmmmmmmm stinkpalm

What's the status of school?

Contrary to popular belief, I am not only looking for jobs in the surrounding NJ area. I've got a 25 mile distance set on my resume on Careerbuilder and while I wouldn't necessarily like travelling for work, I will do it, if I have to.

That being said, I still don't want to work in the city because of the problems with parking and paying city taxes on my wages. Mostly the paying city taxes. ;P

eh, frig. I forgot to sign it before I commented to you.
Balls!

Nothing's going on with that, for the time being.
I missed fall entry (by many months, apparently), so anything happening with school isn't going to happen until next year.

I am, however, doing legwork to see what I can see about getting some fancy-pants financial aid so that I don't have to work while I'm in school.
