It is if you don't have qualifications you need, no experience or you live near me xD
I can't get a job anywhere.
I did beauty in college, so I'm qualified to do like beauty stuff & make up.. but I want an animal job or to work in a tattoo/piercing place and the nearest course for both is 3 hours drive away..
Which I obviously can't do.
It sucks.

That's great. Mind if I would ask how much is the pay? LOL. I am contemplating on robbing you a penny.

Hehe. Lets all rob Ohyouknow, she can take it, she's got 3 jobs
Today I called a place as a potential place to board. I hate it when people give their phone numbers as I have a phone phobia *pauses for everyone to stop laughing and crawl back up onto their chairs*. There was no answer so I left a message. The place sounds great from the little info I have but it's private so I'm not sure how easy it would be for my coboarder to get rides there as she doesn't drive. There's an arena as well as sand and grass rings and the pasture board field is 8 acres

The first two farms we were at had 10 acre fields but the one he's in now is really small, maybe about 3/4 of an acre.

The pay of the jobs? Well, the first job - which I passed on was going to pay $7.50 an hour - in a hot factory, it was temporary (till my job got 'caught up', three to five weeks of work.) and the paperwork I got on it said, "you are not to disturb others if you have a question, call your supervisor." ooookay. Seems like it would be a long eight hour shift without talking to ANYONE...
The 2nd job, was $7.25 an hour, and I'd be working next to my sister - which honestly is NOT a great idea. We get along, but not that well - especially in a confined space, under pressure and stress. I'd be working at Dairy Queen for this job (fresh grilled food and ice cream, and ice cream cakes YUM)
The third job, $7.25 an hour - PLUS tips. I'd be working at Pizza Hut, great management team, and I'm going to be delivering pizzas. I've talked to a few of their delivery drivers; they say they easily manage to make about $15 an hour. It's a low-stress job as long as you make sure you have everything before you leave, and town is small enough the time limit isn't a worry. Plus, it's about the perfect timing to allow me to not use a sitter, at all... or very limited, at that. most likely it'll be my boyfriend's mom swinging by for 30-45 minutes after she gets off work, and until the boyfriend gets home. My dad is excited, he's a delivery driver as well - my mom is less than happy, as she thinks it's dangerous.... I wouldn't do it in a big city, but in my little town; no worries.
I know that to have three jobs call, for all the applications I put in - and I've been 'job hunting' since my last job laid me off the FIRST time (over a year ago)... This is the first that anything's really turned up, or made it past interviews!

I have phone phobia too Flutter..
I totally know what you mean about the laughing thing (as if you're totally crazy) or when people are like "haha just get over it it's only a phone call" or "you'll only get over it if you do it more" etc.
I get annoyed when I need (for example) a doctor and ask my dad to call and he's like "no you're 18 now.. you call for yourself" and I say dad I can't and he goes "well the only way you get over it is by doing it".. it's like -_- fine I won't go to the doctor then haha.
I won't call anyone except really close family, not even my bf.. I won't answer calls from anyone except close family and I won't answer calls which don't show the number, even if it is family lol.
So I know how you feel

Hospital for my camera tomorrow, I'm SO scared. I can't handle pain at all, I cry like a wimp.

oooo it's tomorrow? Is it outpatient? If not, what time do you go in? (if you have your ipod touch/iphone I'll keep you company if you can access the internet with it, jet let me know! We'll play games haha)
My grandma had to swallow a camera that looked like a horse pill once... or is this like one of those fun 'other' cameras?
I understand if you don't wanna think about it. Remember, going to Greece soon, right?

the worst part is the IV. cause once they push the drugs, next thing you know you are waking up in recovery

Sorry I went offline after I posted

yep it was today, I went at 1.30, so it was about 6 hours ago now.. I'm not sure what outpatient means but basically.. I was taken to a hospital bed, put one of those blue gowns on and taken off for the camera, they didn't put me to sleep or anything they just used "numbing jelly" which trust me... did NOT numb.
It was a camera into my bladder, up ... well you know where
I didn't have any internet or signal on my phone sadly

but thanks that would of been nice.. I was super scared.
I ended up crying before and after (but not during for some reason) .. It wasn't that bad, it was just very alkward and stingy, like pins inside.
& now it really hurts but I'm hoping that'll stop soon.
Bladder is clear anyway which I guess is good because the things in bladders are like tumours etc, it's my ovary.. or both apparently.. I have a CT scan monday.
My mum and dad are already giving me options incase they remove my ovaries ("ohh you can adopt a cute chinese baby") etc.
I'm hoping it doesn't come to that lol.

Glad to hear your bladder is clear. Try not to worry about the ovary thing. I had one of mine removed when I was 32. At your age, I would just hope that you're healthy and not worry about having children right now. And nothing wrong with adopting a cute Chinese baby! (just kidding)
