Slave to the Wage X 2

I got the job. Well, so I thought for three weeks. Environment New Hampshire told me they wanted me to be a manager. They took my paperwork, and told me to come in to train. I went in for training day... And they told me they hired too many people--and I had the farthest commute.

Do you know how much time you waste in job-world in three weeks? This completely screwed me over. If I had a chance in finding a job before, it's next to impossible now.

Here's why they made a mistake in letting me go:

     -I was passionate. I truly cared about the cause. I was willing to travel 45 minutes every day.
     -I had a lot of money raising experience. I was a girl scout in elementary school. A cheerleader in middle school. In highschool I was in marching band and Tri-M--the music honor society. All were in some way or another, in need of fund raising. Now in college, I am in a sorority. The whole point of the sorority is to raise money for Philanthropy. I've held SIX positions in my two years.
     -I am not shy. I've done stand up comedy at my school's open mic night. I spoke at Taking Back the Night my freshmen year. I continue to write this blog, even though it's not longer a school requirement. Not to mention anyone I know can tell you that I have no problem meeting new people.
     -They shouldn't have totally screwed over me-- and the other people-- they let go. You know how many people you can hire I feel. Don't over hire people next time. I could've found another job.

And been a little less heartbroken.

So now I find myself in a very bad position. I'm looking on craigslist and applying everywhere I can think of. It's not looking good.

Do you need a photographer? I guarantee half price compared to anything you will find. If you don't like my pictures then you don't have to pay. WILL PHOTOGRAPH FOR FOOD!
