Job Update & Finances

Because of the intense work with the website, I've been having less time to spend on trying to find a job.

Next week brings another busy workload as far as the website is concerned. I've got games at Stark County and Moline next week, with Tuesday up in the air between two locations. A feature and a couple of columns are also on the docket. Hopefully I can squeeze in some time next week to tend to more personal things - I am having this Saturday (Jan. 14) off of everything, and I'm back at it on Monday (Jan. 16) at Hononegah's MLK Tournament.

At this present time, I have some of it to kill. I'm waiting on a story to come in, and after I post it I'm headed to bed. Gotta be at the RF Shootout at 9:30 a.m. and staying 12 hours.

Right now, I have one app on file and that is at the RF Pizza Hut as a delivery driver. Casey's in Sterling is also looking for one, and I think I can ask for a relief clerking position on top of that. Other than these two, there is still not much available to me.

I want to take a day (Saturday perhaps) and round up all of the phone numbers I have called in the past 2 months and ask again. There had to have been over 150. My phone will probbaly be fried when its all said and done. But I can at least get back on my feet and start tackling these applications once more. I recieved a little bit of assistance, as one of my writers has told me he'll look out for any gas station openings near DeKalb (where he lives). After four days of driving to Plano and back, anywhere seems like a short drive.

As for what finances I currently have, there's not much left in the tank from Christmas. My gasoline expenses are covered.

I got screwed out of a buyer for my Yamaha keyboard recently, and I'm back to selling it once again. Aside that - and a 5X Kyle Busch Shell polo shirt - I don't know if there's anything left in my bedroom that is sellable. The baseball cards can't sell on its own, and packaging them into a bundle is too cumbersome to sell.

I just need time.
