4. Well....
I've been looking for a job, right? So I applied at this one place, only to realize I didn't want to work there, so they offer me a job.

My birthday is at the end of the month, I'm turning 19, my brother and his girlfriend were going to take me to Canada, but they just found a place to move into(it all happened really fast) and money is tight now, so the trip is off.

So yeah... :(

9. If you really need the job
Take it, but keep looking elsewhere. Sorry about your trip, hopefully you'll be able to take it when the $$ situation improves.

11. I don't really *need* the job, I mean I could use a job, but don't need it
but it just sucks.... why is it the one place I really don't want to work is the one place that wants to hire me?

No fair. :P

14. Yeah, I know what you mean
More times than not, I end up working somewhere that I hate, because I take the first job that comes along just to pay the bills. I'm hoping that the one I'm in the running for is the exeption to this rule!

I wish you lived closer. I'd take you to Canada for your 19th birthday. It's a big tradition in Michigan too.

13. just read your post above
you never know, you may end up liking that job and if you don't you could always quit, there will be more opportunites. and you're young yet, i'm sure you'll have plenty of opportunities yet to visit canada.

17. Well I'm not taking the job I know I would hate it lol
It's just the one place I don't want to work wants to hire me? x(


And the trip, well it's just something that always happens, if it's ever something I look forward to, it doesn't happen. and I'm not exaggerating either.

"Well it doesn't matter if ______ doesn't work out, Kate won't mind, she's a good sport."

I'm sick of being a good sport, can't a be spoiled? :silly:

24. hehe, i hear ya!!
I know EXACTLY what you're going through with "if it's ever something I look forward to, it doesn't happen. and I'm not exaggerating either." happens all the time with me. I've heard the saying "if you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans." hehe, He must get a good laugh out of me. hey, you got that going, you're entertaining God! :silly:

seriously, just keep plugging away, those things you look forward too will come eventually, and you never know, they may come better than you ever imagined. i've been waiting all my life for a girlfriend and every time i think its gonna happened, i'm drastically wrong. But i have faith that I will find that someone eventually and if not, then it wasn't supposed to be.

and don't be afraid to say, "now just wait a gosh darned minute! i think you should listen to me for this!"


sorry to go religious, but that's what brings me hope. If you don't mind, i'll just say a quick prayer that everything works out for you. :-)

Just keep looking. :) I'm sorry about the trip to Canada. Maybe you can start a vacation fund when you find a good job and save up to go.

I have two places to drop off applications at. It's so frustrating.

I'm thinking the trip will happen in a couple months. It's just I had my hopes up, we had been talking about this since Christmas... *sigh*

52. Take a ride out to Whidbey Island,
walk out on Deception Pass bridge and just enjoy the view.

It worked for me when I lived there.
