Too bad there's so much acid rain.
I'm still sending resumes out for a part-time weekend job. The other day I actually got calls from four different places.
The first was from a call center northwest of where I live. They are looking for people to answer calls and book old people on trips. Doesn't sound so hard, I have enough experience in that sort of thing. Except they are only open M-F from 9a-9p. Since I just signed up for a class at the state college I am now busy Tues and Thurs. I'm really looking to fill the weekends, but he will call me towards the end of my class to see if I'm still interested. Not horribly convenient, since it's about 40 min from my day job, but not the end of the world.
The second was a language school looking for English teachers. I think that would be great since when I go to Paris and can't work legally, I can try to tutor by claiming I have experience. (Another option is getting a TEFL certificate but that's like $300 for the online course. I'm looking into getting my job to pay for that one.) This place doesn't pay that well, but they do have classes on weekends, though she was a little unclear on the schedule. After speaking to the woman on the telephone I sent my resume and hope they will call me soon.
The 3rd was from an SAT tutoring company. I had a phone interview and they wanted me to come in for an interview in person. No idea what they pay but the classes are all during the week from what I was told, so again I wouldn't be able to start til the end of June. It's something to keep in mind when I get to that point, but right now I want a weekend job.
Also, a local improv theatre is looking for people to work the box office during shows, Wed-Sun. The pay is crap but I can pick and choose my shifts for the month, so I think I'm going to try to sign up. I can't make their info session, but I'm going to email them. At least then I can do something on the Friday nights I'm not working at the community college and maybe fill some Sat and Sun evenings too.
Too much free time, not enough money. Sigh.
