So I know all of you were just PINING to know what's been going on with our APRIL problems, so here's the sitch.
Evan is still unemployed. Poor boy has applied everywhere, and the only callback he received was from Fry's Electronics. :P He had an interview there today where, come to find out, Fry's has this new policy thingymabob that states no hiring people who have worked there before. Evan worked there briefly when he first moved to AZ. I guess the guy who interviewed Evan liked him so much that he's going to try and bypass the new policy and see if they can hire Evan, but we'll see. Evan is a little depressed to say the least. He got the callback, from Fry's of all the places he hoped to here from, on the day of his graduation. "Here's your Bachelor's Degree and now go work at Fry's." I would've cried, personally, but that's me. I am so unbelievably proud of Evan. It just plain sucks that useless ol’ me gets to keep a job when the talented one gets tanked. Anyway, regardless of whether he gets the job there or not, Evan is now working to get a new demo reel together so he can find a job in LA. Yep, you heard me. Los Angeles. His friend is working on Justified right now and says Evan has a good chance of getting hired on any project he applies for. I guess the TV show V is hiring a lot so Evan's gonna try for there first. So there's a good chance I'll be stuck here alone for quite some time. The plan is for Evan to stay at his cousins' for a bit and later maybe get an apartment with some friends in Burbank. It's gonna suck so bad living by myself. We discussed the possibility of renting out a room in the house, but I don't know anyone looking for a place to stay for awhile. I do NOT want a stranger in my house, thanks. If Evan makes it out there in a permanent position (TV jobs are temporary), then I will make the journey out there, but I gotta make sure that I can find a job with my not-so impressive marketable skills. I have a lot of medical office experience, but so do a lot of other people, and a lot of people are vying for those jobs. I have a lesser chance of getting hired over others who are older, damn me for being in my early 20s. But yeah, that is the mess I call, "APRIL." Hopefully May will bring something good. It's already doing a pretty good job ending my classes for me. I could do with less stuff to STRESS over. Bah. Toodles, readers!

I love the things that you've given me,
I cherish you my dear country,
But sometimes I don't understand,
The way we play.

If you come to LA you can apply at D-land. They're always hiring and after your probation period you can apply for benefits. And they're very good benefits. You can also start by applying for the college program since you're enrolled and as a part of the program you have a better chance of staying on and getting a permanent job and promotions ;) Just a thought. Evan can do it too. If you need any help or have questions just let me know ;) ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea, Ali! I never thought of applying there. Lol. That would rock. Evan would already have a job when we move up there. It's little ol' me who has to find something. I will have to keep that in mind when we get closer the THE day.
