I have been hunting for a second job for the past couple weeks and this is more difficult than I thought it would be. The mission was simple, stop by several pizzerias and ask if they were hiring, apply, and Cha-Ching…you’re hired. I went to five local places including your standard chains, Domino’s and Pizza Hut, as they are the only national chains in our town. I filled out applications stopped by several times asking and the answer I received is that will call you when our manager looks it over.

I have even used my extremely small “network” and tried to get a job at the pizza shop that I worked at in college. I spoke with the owner as he knows me from my previous employment through him, my sister who is still in college works for him at one of his establishments a.k.a. a bar and also dates his son. Sure thing right? Nope. Apparently he doesn’t run the pizza place much anymore and has a manager that does the hiring, scheduling, etc. I have tried getting in touch with this guy and it seems impossible. He works the day shift as do I, I call and can’t get ahold of him plus he doesn’t return my calls. Wow, this is sounding like some sort relationship gone sour.

What do I do?

I could care less about the cable, I rarely watch TV, but my children do. Not a lot, just during those times that mom needs to make dinner or whatever.  Anyway I have to cut this short as I need to get ready for work. Wish me luck.
