Eating my words

Well Thank God, and Buddha, and Krishna and Allah, and Jesus and Muhammad, and Jupiter and Zeus and whoever else is up there I GOT A JOB!!!!!!!!!!

It is an on call catering staffing service. Basically I tell them when Im available for the week and they contact me to do work parties and events.

There are many downfalls including:
Its pretty much only on weekends (so not many opportunities for $)
My first paycheck doesn't arrive until Jan. 1.
They dont take out taxes so I have to file as self employed and contracting through this company meaning I end up owing come tax time
I have to invest $50 into alcohol and food permits
About $100 in uniform (gotta spend money to make money)

But it seems really flexible and easy to work around, so I will continue looking for a primary job. But atleast there is some source of money that will be flowing my way soon.

Having a job creates a better attitude for looking for jobs so hopefully this can kick start some good job finds.

I guess my little break down yesterday was because I felt it was the end. I just didnt know it was the beginning of being employed!
Back on my feet! And it feels good.

No need to order Fries with those words. Just keep your head above water and hang on. Better times are coming. Hope to see you Christmas...
