So, even though I was hoping for something better from Cumulus, apparently they are no better than Buckeye was at contacting people. I called the guy yesterday that I'm supposed to set up my second interview with. He wasn't there, so I left a voicemail with my name and number, but he has yet to contact me. Oh, and I finally did get an email from Buckeye, which said that they weren't in need of any freelancers at this time. What the hell is that? I was basically told by this woman that I would be able to freelance for them, and once again I'm screwed over. And now it's looking like things with Cumulus just aren't going to work out. Ugghh...Life after college blows.
Moving onto a somewhat positive thing, I do have an interview tomorrow with a PR/Marketing firm in Toledo! I'm excited because it's a customer service/public relations position. I would be going out on events to talk to people. I'm super excited about this and I'm really hoping tomorrow goes well! In the past few days I have learned that I need a job that requires customer service and a lot of interaction with people. I think that's why the whole producer thing didn't work out. I like writing and doing that, but it doesn't involve people. Being a waitress again has made me realize that I need something involving people, and a PR job would be perfect!
Anyway, last time I wrote a blog I talked about a paper route. Well, that didn't work out. I found out that I would have had to drive 25 minutes just to pick up the papers, 25 minutes to drive back, then spend an hour driving around doing my route, and then drive home. I would have made 100 bucks for one week, which a week is working every single day from 4 am to 6 am. After it was all said and done, I would have probably been spending more than half that 400 dollars a month on gas, and for working 2 hours every single morning, it just didn't seem worth it. If gas prices weren't so high, I may consider it again at some point, but it depressed me to learn it wouldn't be worth it.
So anyway, like I said, I have my interview tomorrow morning. Then I work tomorrow evening. I'm really hoping tomorrow goes better than Tuesday night. I was getting like the worst tips of my life Tuesday and it was just a shitty night all around. I came home that night in a really foul mood. Let's hope tomorrow is a better night!
