Day 184

So today I decided I was going to start the old job hunt. My dad informed me that there was a place next to the DMV that will help you apply for all sort of jobs in the area so I decided to stop by and see if they would be able to help me. When I stopped in I was wearing my best interview suit to try and make a good first impression. When I got into the building I noticed that there were six other men in front of me in line. None of the guys had appeared to have showered in the last couple of days and they were all wearing jeans and sweatshirts. One guy in line was talking about the DUI he had received last week coming home from the casino on the Indian Reservation when they all noticed I had walked in. They all stopped talking at once and starred at me when I realized the only time most of these guys have seen someone in a suit and tie was either on TV or when their defense attorney showed up in court. It was at this point I decided I was not exactly that desperate for work yet so I pretended the only reason I had walked in to the lobby was to quickly grab a newspaper. The positive part of this whole experience is that I now know the competition I am facing for work.
