Well, okay. I lost my job about a week before Christmas, and so far have had no luck in getting a new job. I couldn't even go back to my old spot at McDonald's because they have a new manager. Hopefully something will pop up soon. Not only do I need a paycheck, but I'm sick and tired of being pressured by my family, when I'm already doing everything I can. It's not like I *want* to be a jobless bum.
I also wish they'd get off my case about the way I dress and the way I have my hair. Firstly, I don't go to job interviews in clothes like this. Secondly, if potential employers are choosing not to hire me because of the way I dress, then they must be psychic, seeing as the majority of places I apply require an online application. This includes McDonald's, Hollywood Video, Marshall's, Sears, Best Buy, Books A Million...and I can't even remember most of them. Not to mention the fact that when I had in my job applications, it's always to a random cashier grunt who isn't manager. The manager never gets to see what I'm wearing when I apply!
I'm not saying these are the best clothes for a job, or the best look for a job. I'm not that stupid, and I'm tired of everybody treating me like I am. The whole POINT I am trying to make is that employers should still be hiring me even with these clothes.
It's my shitty job history that's causing me to have such a hard time with job hunting, and for no other reason. The fact that the longest time I ever spent at a job is 6 months scares off employers, though it would be nice to get the chance to CHANGE that. Short of lying on my job application, there's nothing I can do. Hell, some job applications force me to sign a document saying I give permission for former employers to talk about me in order to apply at all, though I'm not sure if such a document is even legal.
Anyways. In a fit of late-night boredom before going to bed, I have given in to a strange internet phenomenon. I've adopted dragon eggs:

Basically, people click on the egg images, and they eventually "hatch" into little baby dragons. As more people click on the hatchlings, they will eventually mature into adult dragons.
But, if the eggs don't hatch within a week of being adopted...they die. Don't let the dragons die!

It's proven, that if you aren't yourself, you become mal-content.
Up at the high-school I did research, and it's pretty obvious.
The more you tell someone NOT to look a way they want to try, the more hateful they become of you.
Our teachers eventually gave up, and after a couple weeks of everyone doing what they wanted, they just auto-slipped back into what they were before. .-.
I say this in honor of my next project:
Give life a chance, Save A Fish.
