I scream your name, to see if you're awake.
Light hearted arguments,
Among the waves of symmetry,
This temperamental charisma,
Will be the end of me,
And I whisper your name,
To see if you're awake.
It's all or nothing with me,
I want to find a balance between,
Light hearted arguments,
Among the waves of hypocrasy,
This temperamental charisma,
Is hardly helping me.
And I scream out your name,
To see if you're awake.
And those words will carry you far.
And those words will carry you home.
I went for a walk today. In my preparation, I shaved, I dressed myself in a nice dressy shirt (but made sure to still wear jeans so I wouldn't seem too fake), and I put the papers in my fag-bag. It seemed to take me forever, but finally, I made it to the mall with the high-pitched falsetto-nagging of Muse beating at my ear drums. I walked back and forth through the mall, pretending I had somewhere to go. I did. I was simply holding out as long as I could. I didn't want to deal with these people in a business manner, I am far too insecure. After I had browsed through all the "interesting" stores, I decided I couldn't leave without fulfilling my two and a half hour waste of time. I held my breath and walked up to the managers and handed each of them my resume nervously. They all took it with a generous smile upon their face. Something wasn't right, my stomach had been in knots all day, my brain and shirt twisted into a tangled mess, and it was that easy? Maybe they were being polite out of sympathy, they knew that I wouldn't be getting the job, so they were silently wishing me luck. Either way, it was a burden lifted from my chest, and my walk home seemed much shorter.

That's basically all there is to it. Go back in a week to ask if they've looked over your resume. If they haven't, wait another week. If they have and they turn you down, give them another resume in a month. Keep doing that until you get hired. That's what I had to do and it worked. Hooray for job opportunities.

Yes. Follow-up and hopefully you will land a better job than me. My hopes are with you. And its good to know that i am not the only one that feels awkward dropping off resumes to potential employers. At least you didnt have someone straight out tell you that your not suited to work in retail, so cheer up! All will be well.
P.s. Loved the song i think??
I'm so proud of you.
Buy something, then follow up at the store right after.
That song's hot. Period.
It's hard for me to imagine employers not considering you. I think I should follow your example and look for a new job.
