Summerjob

[Archem]

[Zerlina]

What can I say? I miss you guys

[Moosetroop11]

And we miss you!

Forum's real quiet right now. I'd love some folks to come back!

A'ight I'm about to drop this **** on y'all.

Picture a big-*** circle. Or a big ***-circle if it helps with the visualisin'.
Now at the top of this thang, right on the top of dat circle line draw a big-*** dot, or again a big ***-dot. Now we gon' label this dot "experience".
Now on the FLIPside of this circle, right down they at the bottom y'all, we gon' draw another B.A.D. Word. Now this one we gon' label "job".
Let's rein this **** IN. Let's take the left side of the original circle. Near the top of dis side, we gon' draw a small threeangle pointing upways. Combined with the original circle, it sorta looks like an a-row. We gon' label dis arrow "is required to get". Now similarly-like on dat other side, we gon' draw anotha small threeangle, but dis brutha's gonna be pointin DOWNways. Now also label dis bro "is required to get".
A'ight, y'all ready to finish dis ****? Ye, ye we is. K, so in the middle of the whole thang, right in the centerline of that they circle, tappatappatappa sumdat keybo'd and write "Razor". Aww ye-aaa, now you have where I have been stuck for months.

tl;dr can't get a job
Of course, it's Winter here, not Summer. But it is Summer there, so I think it still technically would count as a Summerjob. But I can't get either ever.

You have a way of explaining things that makes it all seem so clear, Razor.

[Archem]

God, that was a confusing clusterfuck of words. After a few reads, I completely agree. No job experience means no job, no job means no job experience, and since there's no way to break into the loop, welcome to Fuckedville.

I am a wizard, after all.

And that's why you go to college.

BEEN THERE DONE THAT

Connections is the cure.
Ask some people you know if there is something you can do at where they work. Let them ask their boss and they'll hook you up with something you can put on your resume. Let that same connection person be on your resume as a contact and that oen person can say that you sure work hard and is always on time and that kind of crap.

Connections are usually where people start and get a career.

Yeah, the key is to realize that your first, second, and possibly third jobs, you're going to stay there maybe a year, two tops. They're just for the resume. Get involved in odd things that look good later and have a strong sense of when to move on.

It was hell on ice getting my first and second jobs, but last time I went job hunting, it was me turning people down while I looked for the best offer. And I found a pretty darn good one where I hope I can stay for a nice long while.
