Server.

I walked.But I am ok.

I ended up walking out on my Job Monday night. But thats ok. I was not getting any hours. All they was giving me 4-6 hours a week. Plus I was a server that only made $4.95. A hour. And the hours was at the slowest time of day. It take me a hour to a hour and a hafe to get ready a get to work. That was just wasting my makeup. And makeup is not cheap. So I started looking for another job. I had to have some type of money coming in so I can make sure I had my personal hygiene products for me and my kids. We ate a whole lot of ramen noodles. But I'm still okay. Last week I went to an interview. And the guy forgot I was showing up. I was a little upset but I got over it. I left place of business he started on my way home I was getting ready to pull up in the driveway and he called. He apologized so much I told him it was okay things happen he's only human and we are all allowed to make mistakes. So we reschedule for another interview. First thing Monday morning I went I was there for three and a half hours. He told me I was perfect for the job because I was Pleasant to be around and I had some SAS in me. He said I was going to work out just fine. Cuz he said with all my experience working in the restaurant industry I would be perfect for this job. I am running my own dining room fine dining I am not waiting no more tables. I get to dress up walk around be pleasant and Sassy all in one. That's a hell of a job to get. And what he offered me my wise oh yes hell yes I took it. I have been depressed upset crying discourage I'm done with everything. But I keep getting on here and I keep getting positive feedback from everyone. You people are so awesome don't know you personally I keep seeing everyone of you have a place in my heart and thank you and I mean thank you for everything you guys are amazing. I want everyone to have a wonderful day and be pleasant and Sassy.

Just My Perspective

Hi Carrie! So happy to hear your great news, I love your common sense, to leave a job that was giving you so few hours. I wonder if it were there partner or mother, and They had bills to pay if they would appreciate 4-5 hours? It irrates me when people berate or try to hold people in crappy jobs, pardon my french. I love the make up stuff as well, a little product helps enhance and hopefully cover up all the struggles and other stuff the concealer isnt concealing. I am happy that you are utilizing what the God Lord gave you shaking up your Sas as you put it, and smiling and inviting sounds like a good combination to me! Best of Luck

Carrie, I am very happy for you and wish you the best in your new job! What really gets me here is the immature comments of some people picking at your spelling when that's not what it matters here. Is all about support and empathy! Maybe these men should consider a job as spell checkers on the web! Geesh!

Intreresting interview technic! Do you think it was to find out how you handle adversity and disappointment? Your understanding showed great emotional ability.

It would likely help your career search if you learned proper grammar and spelling. Im not being mean at all, that's just good practical advice.

I would recommend that you correct your English writing. Get an English manual from the library. It makes a huge difference. It is the first impression that establishes you. If that his hard, then present your qualifications and say as little as you can. GOOD LUCK.

I agree . Me-time is necessary for both genders. If you’re pleasant on the inside than you’re pleasant on the outside. If you make time for yourself, you tend to be happier than if you didn’t or wouldn’t.

Servers don't make a big hourly wage, in Virginia its 2.13 an hr and in Ohio its 4.35 an hr. I am a server in Ohio now and make good tips so the hourly rate is not a big deal.
