Today, I had a job interview at Nu Skin. I didn't really know what they were all about before, but I'm kind of not-hating on it so much as I was. The idea of multi-level marketing kind of sickens me, I don't know why, maybe I just hate businesses? But businesses sell me great things like natural baby products and cloth diapers so you know. Nu Skin seems to be pretty dedicated to all-natural products and selling but not pushing their products. I hated working customer service at the alarm company because it felt so unethical. Telling poor, elderly, Hispanic ladies that they were stuck in a two-year contract with an alarm system they didn't want but signed the contract because a nice, good-looking Mormon boy schmoozed them stole my soul every time I worked. Well, "you signed a contract" was all I could pretty much say to help them. If I get the job (which is a toss-up since there were like 30 people there interviewing), I'll have to sit in a cubicle for six hours answering a phone, but at least I'll be helping people out who actually like the products. I think, at least. Anyone ever work there have any thoughts?
I also have applied at a bakery, the library, and as a substitute teacher. Surely SOMEONE wants to hire me... doesn't a college degree get you anything around here?
i can't find a job either. i swear a college degree means nothing anymore. we are smart women, we have to find something. love you.
ReplyDeleteStart a womens' coop! Or mentor teenage girls to go far in life, at least until something bigger comes along and asks for your talents!
ReplyDeleteI applied at NuSkin at the beginning of the summer, didn't get the job. Figure that will either ocmfort you if you dont' get it or help you feel good if you do!
ReplyDeleteI'd hire you to be my Nanny. Too bad you aren't here, or maybe its a good thing for Theodore that you aren't....
