Dear Toys R Us:
thank you for the 2 months worth of pipe dreams and fairy dust wishes that i get hired to work for your crew. though managing postions informed me that i had a great retail record and would "push" to get me on board, you are going to pursue more qualified candidates. thanks for the waste of time.

With Loathe,

...Rusty




well im fucked :angry:

Thank them and go deliver pizza instead. Or, one of my favorite 2nd jobs was working at Dollar Rent a car. I was close to the Columbus airport so that made it very handy / close. Flexible hours (I just worked 2 or 3 nights a week). They pay you to go pick up cars from other locations as an extra benny ...plus they usually have some purty nice cars you get to tool around in a little bit.
I do think Toys R Us would drive you crazy this time of year. If you really want retail check out Radio Shack. They would be more fun to work at IMHO. Lots of neat gadgets there. :D

not delivering pizza in my car, she cant take it right now. yeah it woulda drove me nuts, but the extra money would have offset that. i never thought of the rentacar joints. i might have to look that up. round here there really isnt much, but ill look into it, thanks.

Burning bridges = bad.

They'll be going into a hiring frenzy as Christmas approaches. If you send that rest assured your application will be in the circular file the same day. If you can get your foot in the door for the holiday season, give it your all and make it such they don't want to part with you when they do the seasonal lay-offs in January.

thats what the application was for. this years seasonal shit. thats what i dont understand. they are hiring tons of people. i wanna know why they passed on me after expressing such an 'interest' in having me work there. thats what pisses me off. after all that time and energy spent in staying in contact, driving out there (not exactly close) ect ect, they send me a fucking email saying i am not good enough.

Check out Autozone and Bon Ton. If you can find something close and save on running to get there it would pay better. The job outlook is pretty tight right now. Only openings around here is for packers making min. wage through Kelley temps.

Rusty, Radio Shacks are on every corner (it seems like) and they'll be hiring for xmas. They have a nice bonus program where you can make some decent cash (better than toys r us I'd guess).

Rusty you have to remember you are not the only one in line looking for a second job...hell some folk would be happy with the chance of just having the one job so remember to be thankful for that....things could be a damn site worse.

I don't say that to knock you i say it to remind you life sucks at times but with working hard like you do and staying positive things will get better,try and think along the lines of you did not get the job but hopefully some needy family did and now has a little hope heading into the festive season.....just remember "what goes around comes around" so spread a little good karma and stay positive.

Maybe with the winter season heading your way fast why not think of setting up your own home delivery service for the elderly with a small charge for your services to help earn a few extra $$$...and it will help the elderly....just one suggestion m8....try and think of what you have to offer to your community that is at the moment not on offer.....think outside the box and you could amaze yourself.

Just FFS don't start stripping....you need to make ends meet not bring an end to others with your dodgy meat:yum::yum::yum:

Geeeeeeez! I was just going to suggest that he pimp himself as a male gigalo. There's good bucks in that line of work, and since older single/widowed women outnumber men, you'd be a shoe-in. Hell, he could probably get $100 or more just to be an escort for an evening so the woman was not alone at an event, and not have to put up with all that retail BS. Of course he'd need a new t-shirt, ball cap and tennies, but they could be written off as a business expense. Who knows, she might even take you out to a fancy men's store and buy you some new threads. You could be like "Pretty Woman," but be called "Handsome Stud!" If your wheels are a problem, just have her pick you up and drop you off. Just be sure to clear it with Lithium first. I wanted to do this but my wife made me start a business snaking out toilets and painting sheds. :whistling::whistling:

Jev....he needs to think outside the box not outside reality:yum::yum::yum:

I have a gut feeling you want to be his pimp...now thats a worrying thought:whistling:

This might be a thought; save the expense of the new cap, tenniesneakers and t-shirt. Once them there ol' cougars see Rusty, they'll pay big bucks if he stays home!
