Someone, please give me a job
I am a good office worker. I type well. If you read this page, you know I'm pretty good with written communication. Everyone's always surprised by how quickly I get things done -- I catch on quick. The first two weeks of May, I am available every day except Tuesday, and I can work the whole week from May 16 until the end of August. My resume is available here.The first job my temp agency gave me was in the suburbs, for 25 hrs./wk., for a relatively low wage. I thought that an outbound commute would be reasonable, but it was an hour drive each way today, for a fifteen-mile trip. I found an alternate route once I got home, but I obviously have no idea how that's going to work out. Maybe it would work for some people, but for me, driving an hour each way in heavy traffic is way too stressful to be worth it for a part-time job. I was really hoping that I could find something downtown, or at least near an L stop, so that driving wouldn't even enter into consideration, and in fact I put that down on the form they gave me the day I registered. So -- whatever. One of you can just get me a job instead, I'm sure, so this isn't even an issue.
