so i have been unemployed for about 4 months now. this month was crunch time. HAD to find work. so i dropped resumes and applications off EVERYWHERE. even walmart and mcdonalds! thats how desperate i was. so then one of my closer friends starts working at some jb bout 1 hour south. then the dood he was working with gets fired. so he talks to the boss and i all of a sudden have a job (going in tomarow to figure all the shit out and start monday). keep in mind i didnt have so much as a phone call in the last 4 months from anyone, even the ones that were currently hiring. so i get home today and find i have 2 messages both phoning to book interveiws. i was shocked. 3 job offers in less than a week, and none the previous 4 months. guess it aint that strange but it sure as hell is to me. so now i got a decent paying (for someone that failed highschool at least) full time job, and i'll probably have weekend work for crapp pay.
it'll be nice being able to travel and buy weed again life is good, and better in 2 weeks

hehe dont go thinking its some sorta sweet ass grow op or bank robery or somthing. its construction nothing fancy or classy just pounding away in the mud. howevere up north provides some pretty "fun" job oportunities...maybe in the future

Maybe they'll pay you 12 dollars an hour to start and after the first 3 months you get a raise, construction is the union. you build union hall.even if you not good for raise you get one. hello 13.65!

I remember the jobless days. Nothing feels better then getting some bank. OR at least the ability to do so.

hehe ya. actually construction is what i was doing before but i hate it. especially the winters (now), but i have mostly worked for family friends so dont have a ticket (like most care) so im demoted to laourer. anyway i dotn want this to be career but it doesnt involve school so i may jsut stick it out. lesser of 2 evils as tehy say.
so ya i went in today met up with my buddy and went over to teh office. he said your kyle, ya you know terr. so you can start monday? bring hard hat and boots.
that is the reason i do like construction. no bullshit no worrying you either get it or you fuck off. nice and simple
