The Official Vent Your Frustration Thread
So it's mid June and I STILL don't have a summer job. Silly, I know.
I'm an uni student. I'm also in the army reserve. For past 3 summers, I have had summer employment from the army because I'm a good kid who show up for virtually everything and and keep my nose clean. This summer, only last week I am told that I don't get anything. Well, so much for dedication and loyalty. Okay, so I did get offered a 10 day contract in mid July, but considering I need to make about 4000 this summer, I am very. Not. HAPPY.
Why did I hold out for an army job? Well, at my current pay rate, I get about 110 bucks per day, 7 days a week, plus allowances. Most summer contracts have you work only about 5 days a week, albeit some workdays are really messed up. So say about 700 per week and since most contracts are about 10 weeks like, that's 7000 bucks. Add another 1000 for allowances, you can see why I am VERY. NOT. HAPPY.
Now there are some jobs I can apply for in Kitchener Waterloo area, but I need references. I have one, a friend of mine who also happened to be my immediate boss, but I need another one. Having solely worked for the army, I don't have another source of reference. I suppose I can my former boss when I worked for KFC like 4 yrs ago, but I haven't talked to her since and I feel kinda conscious doing that. Most jobs want two references, leaving me in a kind of limbo.
Combined with very humid weather we've been having lately, I feel like destroying the world.
