There is another reason i haven’t been posting much, because progress in the job search has been so little. Maybe i hinted, or even stated this earlier, but you see nothing is worse then being unemployed and having bills coming up that need money to be paid and the significant other feels like your goofing off. So i avoided the blogsphere 100% until i got some sort of positive progress. If i had negative progress, then it would look twice as bad to the woman i love if i spent 10% of my time writing blogs. aka goofing off. So my time at the computer has been spent working. I wake up at 8-9 and begin searching and sending out resumes.<\/p>\n
Today i went to an interview and took tests for delta legal, which is a legal temp agency. I scored as follows:
\n100% -> Excel
\n97% -> Word
\n100% -> Powerpoint
\n76 Words per minute average typing test.<\/p>\n
woo hoo go me. What is not listed above is that I also played IT guy in the back. The computer froze during the tests. I got a secretary to come in and told her how to diagnose the problem. Java script is a bitch, and for somereason it was flooding their computer and freezing it. I told her it might have something to do with having five java applications open in the background simultaneously. She asked how to close them. I closed them. Problem is the problem was recurring. So she got their own IT guy to come out and tell me that the computer was FUBAR so i moved to another compute. I thought to myself, “I could do his job”. After the Interviewer recieved my results she was very pleased with my performance, like i knew she would be. <\/p>\n
I’m thinking of going back tomorrow and taking the wordperfect test and some of the more advanced tests. They say we can study the programs before taking the tests. When i took the typing test, i pissed off everyone in the room. They were trying to take their typing tests, and i was throwing them off. Funny.<\/p>\n
Vegetarianism isn’t going so good. I have resigned to arguing that i’m a “conscientious eater” What is that you ask? I’m glad you asked, it is someone who recognized the pain and suffering animals go through before I partake of their flesh. I consign myself to being 25% carnivore. I can’t give meat up. I don’t like enough vegetables.<\/p>\n
P.S. Now i need to send my resume off to the ACLU and other establishments. Man i hope one kewl lawfirm signs me up for a training position. I really would like to get working in Law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
