http://geometroforum.com/topic/3455497/1/ *to read my first try which ended...eh let's just say I don't have a job with them Now iamgeo suggested I deliver pizza, I don't like the idea that much but I do like CASH money, and the times I go to school fit perfectly around this job. So i'm applying. It will be in a new city, so i'm going to be using a GPS if I get the job. Who wants to be a reference? Edited by Coche Blanco, Aug 6 2010, 02:13 PM.

Moi... a job reference? ![]() Maybe Johnny Mullet can be a reference as "Forum Administrator" (said in my best Pauly Shore voice from the movie Jury Duty). Strike a pose when you say "Forum Administrator."But if you think I (who can't get a real job) can help PM me. I'm not making a good case for myself am I? Seriously, I think persistence (follow up) and showing up with a copy of your insurance and driving record when you fill out the application would go far, as would having 3-4 local references of professional people you know - not related and who like you. Vacuum, wash and wax your car before you go. Park away from the building but near the front door (don't block customers). |

It's hard to compete for a job when your competition is laid off 30 year old employees. Of course they're going to have more experience. Ughhhhh My sister put in 20+ applications before she got even one job offer. I'm up to 15 applications, hopefully I can get one too. |

They don't want one what? Is it they are not hiring? Have you tried more than one PH? |

Sounds like you are turning them off. Some of your posts come off as rude and ass like, do you act like that in person? Id try a different approach, but I use to do 20 applications a day online and fax, then 2-3 interviews a day. Get the classified section of the news paper and look through the help wanted list. . |

No I'm always super nice to future employers. I have a question though, have you missed the 3000+ posts i've made that have helped people? Just curious. I'll go grab a paper today. |

The paper will have about a 1% listing of available jobs. It is a good idea to sign up with a Temporary service or two. I have been with a few in the past. What makes them really good is that you can be put to work at some really neat places. I was a Temp. at Pace Picante Sauce in San Antonio. I was there for a year. It was a great place to work. |
