So, I finally got a job. I am working at New York & Company - part-time, seasonal. Which means I only get a little over minimum wage for less than 20 hours a week. But it's a job - and I get a discount on really cute clothes. Of course, the day I accepted the job, I got a letter informing me that exams for those interested in the CSI position (for Lakeland) are next Wednesday. This is a job I would LOVE to get. Fortunately, I have the day off from work. But, that's because I have a root canal scheduled for that morning. So, if I can get the root canal scheduled for an earlier time that day, then I can go in and take the test. I have no idea what kind of test it is, but I think it's just a general knowledge test - and I consider myself generally knowledgeable, so - fingers crossed. Also, yesterday, while I was in orientation at NY&C, I got a message from a head-hunter who saw my resume on Monster regarding a management or management-trainee position (somewhere) in Lakeland. I am going to call him back on Monday. Part of me wants to take any "real" job that I can get, but I also don't want to continually job-hop. Taking a management job could mean giving up on the CSI job - and I have applied for a research position at the Moffitt Cancer Center, which also sounded great, because they specifically wanted someone with an Anthro degree. Of course, there are a lot of unemployed anthropologists out there, so I would definitely have competition there. So, right now I'm not sure what I'm going to do.
