So other than me doing my challenge, which, by the way, is very hard, things have been going pretty well. All my aches are mostly gone, though my shoulder is a tad tender. I’m getting really good hours at work, which is essential. And finally…
My boyfriend has TWO JOB INTERVIEWS.
This is like… GIGANTIC news. The economy SUCKS. Pair that with the fact that he was out of work for two months due to a car accident, then couldn’t find another job right away… he’s been out of work for two years. Pretty much five months after we started dating, he got the boot. :< At the moment, he has been volunteering his work time to a local comic book store once a week or whenever they have need of him, and he has been doing that for about 8 months. I think it has helped, cause employers can see he is still trying to work. It’s also experience. It’s been so hard even getting interviews, though, that two calls in one day shocked us both!
The first call came from Macy’s for a holiday position.
The second is for Goodwill, which is the position I hope he gets, because it is full time and will most likely last longer than what Macy’s has in mind. Also, our room mate works at Macy’s, and it might be weird. Not sure why, but a job is a job, so if he gets that one than he’s taking it. XD
We’re just excited that he got calls, after months of silence from businesses.
I’ve also convinced him to try for his Driver’s License. Because, he’ll be needing it. I can’t drive him to work always, obviously, so if he can drop me off at work and drive himself, that would be a huge plus to the situation now.
I just hope that one of these two interviews will land him a job!
