>anyone else recently applied for any jobs?
Not since Christmas.
I don't even know why, I just feel possessed by inertia.
>>26197958
well this is the first job i applied to since before christmas but im gonna actually try to get it
Quit my 39k a year job a few months ago and it's kinda scary how, now that I'm back to looking for work, I can't get anyone to call back. I quit to finish school and I get my degree in May but now I'm worried I threw away a decent career for a degree I didn't even need. Still, I made a promise to myself I would get my degree no matter what so I'm staying the course. I'll just go nuts with all the applications when I graduate, plan on doing at least five a day.

hope it all works out then, are you getting any assistance for going back to school? You could join the military for like 3-4 years and when you finally get out they literally pay you to go to college. My friend is doing that now and getting a comp sci degree.

>five a day
If you're not sending at least 20 a day you're not gonna get any where, you can expect 7 phone calls after a month and 5
I'm a freelance graphic designer. I never had a job in my life.
>>26197770
Hope you get the job senpai.
>>26198087
just as long as you make enough money to always have a handle of your favorite liquor on hand
>>26197770
We're rootin' for you anon,
honest advice show interest in getting the job in a way that tells them you dont want to do it just for the money
>>26198114
thanks hope you get something good going for you soon
>>26198151
I do enjoy it cause it's apparently a testing and calibration job and some soldering which was probably my favorite part of the electronics class i took while in high school
Try not to be overly thankful anon. That could compromise your entry into the workplace and your position of dominance in the food chain.
No joke, some employers are like that.
I'm applying for a book store employment to get out of my continuously better pay retail shitjob. It's bittersweet.
>>26198710
yeah i'll just try to act natural but i'll be sure to say thanks and stuff if i find i necessary
>>26197770
i fucked up a job interview yesterday
i was kind of down about it thinking about what i could do differently
then i slept on it and today i think i'll just try to figure out who their competitors are and apply there.
>apply for a job, only offer to do weekends because it's all I can do as a student
>get call back next day
>"Can you do weekdays?"

>"Sorry, we need someone for weekdays only."
>hangs up
