UPDATE: Possible Job
I applied for jobs in clothing shops. Either they'd already hired their
'holiday help' or the shop staff were exceedingly... how do I put this? preppy and chirpy and *young* (and also looked at me like, why would YOU want to work here?). I was getting discouraged. I went to Origins; they had hired everyone they needed. Before I left the manager had me try the new cocoa exfoliating treatment Then she told me they were looking for help at Charlotte, a jewelry store down the row. So off I went. Looks like (98% chance) I have a job there! The company is German; some of you folks outside the US may have heard of it (there are only 4 stores in the US thus far). http://www.charlotte.de/frames.php?sprache=en The woman basically conducted the interview while we chatted. She showed me all of their collections, showed me how the jewelry works (it's all 'changeable' pieces), told me all about the company, showed me photos of when the owner and his wife visited last spring from Germany. She gave me brochures, a calendar, as an afterthought gave me an application and told me fill it out to bring back. She got my phone number and said she'll call me tomorrow. The best part is, I was hoping for day time work but figured for holiday help I'd have to work nights. She NEEDS a day time person! YAY! Continued purrs, please, but this is looking good! Jill |

I was getting discouraged. Not only do I know the feeling, but -- 1) You had no idea you were so "old" until it happens; 2) It's happening to people younger and younger. Those young snots who look at you now-- they'll be turning 27, and the 23 years old will be rolling their eyes at them saying "But you're so O--ver!" :P I went to Origins; they had hired everyone they needed.
