Day 2

So I couldn't decide if I should number the days by how many actual days since I started or by the day number by which I have actually done something productive. I am going with days actually doing something job related since it will be easier to keep track.

After my last attempt to look for a job, I took a little break and focused on working at my current part time job. Getting 5 to 8 hours a week at Anthropologie is helping with gas money until a real offer comes along, but this past weekend it was taking up a bit more time than I would of liked. I had planned a weekend trip to St. Simon's with some friends after thinking that my only shift was Saturday. I figured a 4 hour shift wouldn't be too hard to pawn off on someone so I was excited to leave my house for a few days and forget about the looming idea of a job. Of course when Tuesday came around I stopped by to look up my hours for the upcoming week and low and behold I was schedule not just Saturday, but also Sunday and Monday. This put a huge dent in my MLK weekend plans and I ended up having to stay in town and forgo the trip out of Atlanta. I ended up salvaging a little bit of the weekend by making a trip up to Clemson Friday night to visit some of my college friends and tourture myself by reminding myself that I am out of college. It was fun to be back but staying for a night was enough and I don't miss classes or homework at all. I'll just have to keep up the weekend trips up there to help remind myself that I could still be in college.

As far as the actual job hunt is going--ehhh not off to a great start. I'm not even looking for a super great job at this point. I figure I have no idea what I want to do anyways so if I get into something and realize it isn't the job for me I can always change. No need to limit myself since I'm not sure what I'm 100% interested in anyways. All I know after my numerous areas of previous job experience is that I like office work. So I guess I can start at that. I've look at a few administrative jobs but I feel like I could do better than getting someones coffee and making copies after graduating college. I've also looked at the HR route since I had seen how that worked this summer. There are still more options than that in an office and I have come across and sent my resume into some that sound interesting. Hopefully I can get a few more leads tomorrow and submit some more resumes. I'm hoping that I can meet people who know people in a business hiring but so far all my people aren't looking to hire anyone. So it looks like more internet research is to come. If anyone knows of any office positions let me know!
