Sounds like you had a simply wonderful morning! Cute little car! Saw in the paper that Dude got a scholarship, that is way cool! Bet he was excited about that. Keep hanging in there I'm sure a job will come up one of these days. Good luck!

Ooohhh...did you see Rosie's 1901 curve-dash 3/4 size replica Oldsmobile while you were out there? The pics you posted look just like that. Good luck on the job front! The S.D. job market is looking a little scary right now... hope it gets better soon!

I think it depends on what kind of job you're getting as to whether they check references. I know when I worked at the computer store, no one cared about my references. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. That 1901 Olds is ADORABLE! I have a weakness for antique cars, having spent my childhood dragged to this, that, and the other antique car shows. Love those antiques!

No one ever checked my references either. To this day, I think most of them didn't believe what they were seeing on that r�sum�, though I toned it down.

I can't tell you how many jobs I've gotten without anyone calling my references. It's no big deal, though having your references called is a definite good thing. Something will come around for you soon. :)

Coming from someone who's from here, I can tell you it's damned tough to get people to actually read and acknowledge your applications. I have always felt like it was such a waste of time every time I have taken the time to fill out app's and turn them in. It's SO rare to get someone who "doesn't" make you feel like they're going to toss your application and blow you off the minute you walk out :-/ Not that it's that way *everywhere*.. but a lot of places here, yep. Hang in there! *hugs* Starkitten01

I've interviewed for jobs and was hired too and they didn't check my references. It could mean nothing. Have a great weekend! :)

I WISH my 1901 Replica Curved Dash Olds looked like that, but mine got left out in the weather, thanks to that idiot Shane, and then The Evil one totally destroyed it last year. *Sigh* As for the key, I'd find a place to hide it outside the house, far enough away from the house that if someone accidentally found it, they wouldn't immediately say, "OH! Here's a key to Beanies place over there!"

What a great day you had! Good for you!! Of all the jobs I applied for and all the interviews I had, only one of them called my references. And that was the all and mighty WallyWorld PRIOR to my interview. weird...

I do not like the on-line applications you must sell yourself on paper. I too felt they were tossing applications in the trash after not getting one call back except when I called and found out the position was filled. My friend said it takes time, I said what you did,, time to change the application to make it stand out. Hum...could be interesting. Sandyz

It might be good to change up your application. Like....I can cut up the bacon and fry it in a pan, Make muffins from scratch and write advertisements..... I wish you good luck in finding a job. I imagine just the work you have been doing at the museum could lead to more opportunities too.

Don't know if you know this but I lived in San Diego for a little over three years. I ended up moving back to MN about a year after Poolie arrived in San Diego. ANYHOO....all those pictures make me homesick! But keep posting them...I love them!

You will find a job soon. Does San Diego have a temp agency? Lots of my customers have found full time jobs that way. Sometimes the temps are paid a few dollars more an hour than the regular employees. It's something to think about anyways.
