This morning, I went to Macy's for a job interview that I have applied for as a Part-Time sales associate. I thought that the interview went well until the interviewer says, "I'm afraid that there's no part time sales associate positions available at this time". From there, I was shot down. I was so upset, you don't even know.
Next, I drove to the Molly Maid office to fill out an application since I already have sent a resume online. I thought that I was going to get an interview on the spot, but the lady says "This application will be placed on hold, and we will give you a call".
These two sentences in red is all I ever hear. Every single time I place my resume and fill out applications online since no one has paper applications anymore, most of the time I don't even get a phone call or an email inviting me to come in for an interview and if I'm even lucky, I get a phone call or an email once in a blue moon for an interview. Then as soon as I come in for an interview, I always make sure I look my best and I answer all questions to the best of my abilities, only to hear that"they'll call me back" or "I'll put your application on file and I'll give you a call if anything opens up", which is a total let down.
All of my friends are around my age, and they all have jobs/careers, buying their own cars, paying rent for their apartments or paying mortgages for their houses, and having financial freedom to buy whatever they want, even personal items, even my own relatives have jobs and can pay for whatever they want, and I can't do that. As bad as it is, I can't ask my father or other relatives for money because it's not cool to me.
Sometimes, I even wonder why I never get hired or called back to find out if I have the job or not. I still have school (1 more year, then I'll graduate in 2017) and I do work-study when school's in session. That's all good, but the money from work-study isn't good enough for me to help pay a bill or even pay 1/4 of the rent in my house.
Even though I live with my father, I hate seeing him having to be the only one working and paying for everything!!! I want to be able to say "Hey dad, I got this bill" and "I have my half of the rent"! But I want to buy my own personal items, my own clothes, shoes, heck, I even want to save up for a car!!! But how can I do that if no one is going to hire me???
