framlingemI have a job interview on Monday. In Mount Pearl, of all places. I ahve no idea how to get there, but I will manage.
The bad part is that, while I'm training, at least, I will need to cab at least one way. Note to self: If I get the job, try really, really hard to find someone to carpool with.
The good part is that these people pay $10 an hour starting wage, guarantee 35 hours a week (with as much overtime as I like!), and have medical, dental, and optical coverage. I don't _think_ I need the optical, but the rest would be nice. I didn't want to ask the interviewer lady if the 'medical' part covered mental health. She's not legally allowed to not hire me because I'm crazy, but it might make her look harder to find another reason not to. Cynical of me? Yeah, totally. I'll get the job, THEN find out if I get to look after myself.
On the other hand, mental health will be better for having a job, at least in the not-beating-myself-up-because-I'm-unemployed-and-stressing-over-where-my-next-rent-cheque-is-coming-from department.
EDIT: Hooray. Some time with metrobus.com and mapquest tells me that all I need to do is transfer at the Village. It's only a two-bus trip. That could be so much worse.
