Work-first day

April 6, 2009 at 7:04 am (Work, job search, jobs)

Well, the thing I am going to do happened rather quickly. I went in for a second interview at Starbucks last wednesday. I thought I was not going to be offered a job because of the way the conversation went. He was concerned with how I would react to making a lower salary than I am used to, as well as, being overqualified for the position.To my surprise, the manager offered me a job starting today. 

The only concern I guess I had was would I be able to still collect unemployment if I am working part time. The answer is yes. And I don’t mean to sound like some beggar that needs to suck off the state, but I have a family to take care. I mean, hey, what happens if the only thing you are offered after being without work for over two months is a part time job. You have to think about these things. Plus it is a good idea to take the job.

So, I plan on working hard, doing my best. What else is there. I am a bit excited, the perks are good. Too bad I have been laying off the coffee. I have cut myself back to one a day. 

Anyway, better go to work.
