April Progress Report

A lot has happened in the past month. Not much progress but advancements were made.

Employment:
I didn’t get the job at the video store. Rumor around town is that they only hire women so I was kinda out of luck with that one. If only I was a woman huh? Anyways, The other job at the Holiday Inn Express never got back to me even after I left three messages for the manager Julie Greely and that was something of two weeks ago. I suppose I am out of luck on that job as well.

So I went back to the drawing board and returned to the CWDS website ( the local CareerLink website that helps those looking for work to find work ) and I searched the local newspaper online. I found a few jobs but at list two that I am really into. One is a Teller for a local bank called the First CommonWealth Bank. I gave them my updated resume and a cover letter with a reference page. I wanted to give them everything they would need to make the choice they need. Also, I applied for this anonymous local company in the paper said they were looking for an Executive Secretary / Administrative Assistant. I gave them the same treatment as I did for the bank. There is another job I am not too crazy about getting and that is a Laborer job from the CWDS website. I figured that if I don’t get the jobs I want then I’ll get a job regardless cuz we need more income coming in. Badly.

Credentials:
I got my copy of my Citizenship last week and I am very happy to have it but now it is kinda like ‘now that I have this, now what?’ I gotta get my driver’s license of course. I passed the road test the same day I got my Citizenship copy and so I have my permit. There is a program I am part of and word is that they offer a driving course that I want to take part of. I kinda have to wait to hear anything back from that.

On a good note, I went up to Parker and came back with virtually everything that was in the camper I used to stay in. It was a lot of stuff there so I am glad to have it back but most of the great stuff I was hoping to get wasn’t in there. They are either in the wind or they are still with the other half of my stuff. I can only hope that I can still find a way to get a hold of them.

Residence:
The people upstairs should be out of their apartment around the 1^st of May so we are probably gonna move our things up there as soon as we can get the key to get up there. I gotta move the water and electric upstairs and everything but that shouldn’t be too hard to do in this upcoming week.

Recreational:
I haven’t done much in the department of productive recreational. I have been playing a lot more online than I have been in the past and it is fun. But at the same time I really should get on top of what my brothers want me to do. I gave my word that I would do it and I am a man of my word.

Employment:

·         Contact CareerLink about the job postings I am interested in and hope that they can do something to sell be better than I can.

·         Get a hold of the HR Department of FCB and see if they are still searching for the Teller Position sometime next week.

·         Find one additional place to apply to

Credentials:

·         Start the driving course

·         Contact someone ( police potentially ) about my other half of my belongings
