Man, That Is Very Good

Holy crap! Busy last few days. I had applied for a detachment clerk position at the RCMP in Recliff, (actually two, one part time and one full time). I got a letter from them saying that one position had been cancelled (not sure which, the PT or FT). I had assumed I wasn't getting a call for the other, when, surprise, they called.

I thought I was going in for an interview yesterday, and as it turned out, I was ambushed by a Wordperfect proficiency test and a proofreading test. No interview yet, that comes after they evaluate the test. I followed the instructions, but they were pretty vague, I don't know ANY command codes for Wordperfect (could have used some of Mukey's admin training on that one), but I still finished well under the time limit. So, we'll see about that one.

Same day, had an interview at the casino for a customer service job. Pay is weak, but when EI runs out it would be better than nothing until something else comes up.

I have an interview today at CORE Association, a community rehab place, sems to deal with getting disables people back into the workforce, and other social work-typ stuff. Will find out more today. I had heard they were starving for people, and fired off a resume, since they said the magic words, "No experience necessary, will train". That's enough for me.

Also going to pop by the Totem job fair tomorrow. etail, yes, but $14 per hour, which is enough incentive for me right now. Ideal case, work FT over the summer, go to PT and go back to school in the fall.

Oh yeah, I also sent in a resume to Home Depot for a "computer room/vault associate", doing deposits, troubleshooting POS sustems, etc. They called within ten minutes of my sending it in, and it was then passed to the next level, so we'll see if that goes any further as well.

When in rain, it pours....wish me luck!
