I drove into Monroeville today, to the CompUSA there. Not because I needed any parts (knock on wood), but to apply for a job. I was going to hit all three electronics stores there -- CompUSA, Best Buy and Circuit City -- but I could only bring myself to do the one. If I don't hear back by the middle of next week I'll have to go do the other two.
Position applied for: Any. Hours: Any. Just like a high-school kid trying to save up some money for a cheap car to impress his buddies.
I'm not sure whether they'd even want to hire me; it's not like I'd give them more than a couple days' notice if I quit, and I'm not exactly doing this because I want to. But I guess I'll have to wait and see. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to drink until I forget that I ever had any pride.
