EMMAh · 05.18.2006, 12:49 PM

... says my mom.
And the first step to getting a job would be to make a resume I guess, only I have no fucking clue how to do that. I've been looking at sites for help and what not, but I'm also thinking you nice people would like to give me some tips?? Yeeaaahhh? Awesome

i'm getting a job soon also! have you had a job before?

!@#$%! · 05.18.2006, 12:55 PM

find something you like and it won't be suffering and you'll do great and love it and get promoted & make gobs of $$ & then take the whole board on a cruise of antarctica.

well first find if you're introverted (like quiet) or extroverted (like noise & lots of people) would be my guess. then look for a job that won't crush your nerves or bore you. some people love being librarians, some people love working at busy places. if you know yourself (honestly) you'll find a good match.

EMMAh · 05.18.2006, 12:55 PM

I used to baby sit every once and a while, but I was a crap baby sitter. I also cleaned someones house once, but was bad at that too haha.
Sooo this will be my first real job I guess...

I'm definitely not a people person I can tell you that hahah, but I don't mind noise.
I want a job where I can sit at the computer hahah, chances of that happening are slim to none though.

looks like you don't like manual labor. how about telemarketer? :P

ps no, actually, you could work at a library stacking books. you are what, 15? plenty of opportunities for quiet people. things that would "bore" extroverts. maybe look for work in a printing press, or a photo studio, or who knows?

Everything you've done can be turned into a positive, that's the thing. SO instead of:

you could say something like: I've done jobs in the past where I have worked alone, and feel that I would now like to work as part of a team.

Trasher02 · 05.18.2006, 12:59 PM

you gotta get a job?!? poor you...

porkmarras · 05.18.2006, 01:03 PM

Something that allows you to commute in and out of your own town is a good start.

I've done volunteer work in a library before

I think I'd like to be a telemarketer, and I've seen stuff in the classified look for students to do just that so maybe...
A photo studio would be cool too.

It's cause my mom is mad at me for missing school or something dumb.
She said, "If you're going to miss so much school, just stop going and get a job, make some money and do something." So if my resume isn't done by 6 when she gets home today I'm in shit ahahah.
What parent tells their kid to drop out of school? Fuck that...

Trasher02 · 05.18.2006, 01:12 PM

my parents stopped supporting me with school, they don't care about my grades no more and think i'm gonna drop out of school anyways....
It's always nice to know you can count on the support of your parents...

The dunces don't even have to go in the summer, they can take it the next year. That's what I did, only I wont graduate with my friends unless I do an online course or something...
There's like 3 or so weeks left of school, I'm so happy
