Interview....

Crash and burn. My job history is just to customer service oriented for kitchen work.

I have just to find something I have got to pay $310 (and going up) back to my family and get back to Tucson. I know how to get help there, I know what to do there. I should have NEVER let Dave throw me on that bus. I should never let my family buy that ticket. I have it over my head like a sword. I should have know they would use that to make me miserable.

They want me to stay and help them financially. They keep putting me down and telling me I just can't make it and that I should learn just to take what is. They made their own mess. Just because I am here for now, does not mean I am going to go down on the ship they made themselves!

I have dreams and hope still. I love Tucson. It fits me, I am going back. And I am not going to let them stop me.

I have a lot of applications out. I picked up one for 2 of the TV stations here.

The same reasons my family and I split is still as thick as ever. Telling me that if I get a job I can't get help and if I get help I can't get a job. I know the truth, but they have their own way. Their way is not mine.

I get work, I can get a car. I want a sporty kind, fun and fast. They said that their guy don't get those much and that their guy does this, this, and this. That I have to go with him and stop such silly thinking.Their easy credit used car guy is not the only one in town. They just want the $200 credit they get if I go with their guy.

They keep bashing my college education as waste of time and money. "what has it done for you?" It is the reason that the computer spit me out for that first interview in the first place!

And I get told how bad things have got since the DEMS have taken over. It is because of my Party That I have a chance!

That just wasn't the right job for you. You will find something better. (Now you don't need the shoes!) We are all pulling for you!

Do you need the car to get to work?

I have many old school pales in town as well as many a Taxi Driver as buddies! Found out the other day that many remember me. Also many of my late mother' side is still in the area ready to help me with the car thing to. You see, many of my mom's side makes a living with cars. Some are mechanics, some are body men. They work with A LOT of car dealers here. My immediate family may have burned bridges with those contacts, but I haven't
