Anxiety.

I’m getting sick of waiting. Ever since the Monday before last, I’ve been waiting for info from Target. I took a drug screening. I’m sure I passed. A week passed and I called the lady I interviewed with. She said the hiring process takes time. Something to do with the payroll department or orientation. But, I would have liked a “Yes, you got the job, just sit back and relax until we call you”. What I got was, “After I give the interview, it just goes to the person above me”. Not a yes or no. She said wait a week and give them a call (if they don’t call first). So now I’m sitting on my hands. I applied to Blockbuster, but I get the feeling they aren’t interested in people with any brains. I’m trying to sell my truck. That will bring in money and put us in a good position. I’m thankful Corin got a job. At least there is money coming in.

It’s so funny how the roles have reversed since we got here. It’s my turn to be the one without any friends. Now I’m the one who misses my family and friends. It’s been hard to find work. I know the economy’s bad, but I think my Los Angeles work history doesn’t help me either.

I’m glad things have turned out pretty good for us, I’m just getting tired of waiting.
