Always need one, don’t you… sucks, eh?
I hate looking for a job. Seriously, it sucks. The upside to not having work, though, is that you get to stay at home a lot! I love staying at home with my fiancĂ©, and as we’re both waiting to go back to Uni next year to do our degrees together, it’s nice to share that, too.
I had an interview last week for a retail job, and during the interview the lady asked what my dream job would be. Of course I said something working with craft related things, so a yarn, fabric, or craft store would be fantastic, my absolute ideal sort of job at the moment. It’s not completely out of the question for my city. There’s two chain craft stores and one local yarn store. I don’t think I’ve any chance of getting work at the yarn store, as it’s just one little old lady in the tiny overstuffed store, but the two chain stores are potential places of employment. Next week I’m going to cold canvas them on the off chance I get a job out of it. It would be epic.
The lady also asked me what sorts of jobs I don’t want to do, and at this stage I said anything in hospitality or cleaning, even office cleaning. I’ve worked in hospitality before, and I don’t like it, people feel too comfortable being rude to you. As for cleaning, I like to keep my hands in good condition for crafting, and as they’re given to dryness anyway, I don’t fancy the idea of working with chemicals that could make that worse.
So whilst I’ve got this time at home, I’ve got a project I want to start on… But more on that later! Now for a knitting pattern! I like so much about this pattern… this knitted dress from DROPS, save the garish heart on the bodice! Yick!
