Maybe I watch “The First 48″ too much?

Thanks to everyone for the kind words of encouragement, I reflect back on them when I’m doing my morning swim, it’s amazing how much all of your words help me out! Hugs to all!
So, as for my title….as many of you know, I have been searching for a PT job since my hubby’s income is just not cuttin it for right now, with our mtg pymt, truck pymt, credit cards, and school tuition and gas (whew…gas ::shakes head::) well, I applied to many jobs the past two weeks, starting from careerbuilder.com, monster.com, jobs in the newspaper and craigslist.com. I just got to email responses from two job positions I applied for on craigslist!
I’m completely ecstatic; the first job looks like for a legit company, one that is established in my community, but the second one, sounds kind of wierd. It’s for a data entry position that is available after 4p Mon-Fri for only 4-5 hours a day…the guy who responded to my resume post isn’t very professional, he leaves one or two sentences and just places his name at the bottom of the email. I am supposed to call him tonight after 6p…don’t they normally contact you if they want to speak to you? I don’t know, it just sounds wierd. LOL I haven’t mentioned that to the hubby at all, because he doesn’t really want me to get a job right now anyway…after I speak to this guy tonight I hope that these fears will settle and I won’t be so wierded out…I think I may just be watching too much of my fav TV show (The First 48)…lol. Thanks to everyone for your encouraging words during this search for a job.
I hope everyone is having a WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY…happy half of the week, hump day! ![]()

Hey !! Good job on the effort for a part time job. I know how that is, I have been applying for them since Ive moved to alabama a few weeks ago, and no responses. But I enjoy the break!! I wish I had your kind of motivation to send out resumes to those places, I have been working on my resume now and then but its so boring! And yeah.. you calling them sounds kinda.. I dont know almost like they wouldnt appreciate their employees!!!
A few really neat ideas people have told me about maybe will help you down the road.
- USPS .. those ladies who sort and send mail… They make like 20 dollars an hour!!! So while you have your current part time job, you can work on getting in there. You can go on their site, and it will show you what exams are required for each position. I would chose a position that intrest me then get a study guide for it (availabe offline) . Then in a few months when the exam is offered you pass it, and just check in weekly to see if any openings are availabe. I know it sounds like a wait, but it sounds like its worth it!
- Also I know that waitressing up In Pennsyvania part time made over $11 bucks an hour and that was at a non alcholic resturaunt. Its a great work out but when food is half off it counteracts.
Anyway good luck on dieting and PT Job.
As always I enjoyed your post

Good luck with your job hunt. Thanks for your encouraging words about my weight loss. I appreciate it. Another idea might be volunteering somewhere that you’re interested in. That way, if a job comes open, you’ll already have a foot in the door. Just a thought. Keep us updated.
Thank you for your comments on my blog! You really helped get rid of the M&Ms :). And congratulations on your job search - I hope things go well and who knows maybe it’s just the start of the responses…good luck!
Good luck with your job hunt. Maybe a good job will help with your weight loss. Theres nothing like doing something your good at and getting paid for it to make you happy when your weight loss isn’t happening as fast as you want it to.
Thanks for the comments on my blog. I just read all the archives of your blog and plan to keep up with it. I think you’d be a good “blog buddy” because we are similar in age (I’m 22) and are at about the same weight right now. Plus I think you said that you are a student too. Also I started out at a size 14 and am now a 12. I think at the beginning you said you were a 13 and are aiming to be a 7. So the sizes are about the same except you wear juniors sizes. Anyways hang in there and keep at it. Remember the key to weight loss is consistency and if you keep at it the weight will have to come off eventually.
There are certainly lots of particulars like that to take into consideration. That is a nice level to convey up. I provide the thoughts above as common inspiration but clearly there are questions just like the one you bring up the place an important factor will be working in trustworthy good faith. I don?t know if finest practices have emerged around issues like that, however I am positive that your job is clearly identified as a good game. Both boys and girls really feel the impression of only a moment’s pleasure, for the remainder of their lives.

Thanks for your blog post. Things i would like to make contributions about is that computer system memory has to be purchased when your computer can no longer cope with that which you do by using it. One can install two random access memory boards having 1GB each, for instance, but not one of 1GB and one having 2GB. One should look for the company’s documentation for own PC to be sure what type of ram is necessary.
Someone necessarily lend a hand to make critically articles I’d state. This is the first time I frequented your web page and thus far? I surprised with the research you made to create this actual submit incredible. Magnificent task!
