It's about 7:30 or so, Tucson Time. I just came from eating at "Food Not Bombs". (They put out a good bowl of soup,and crackers & hot sauce too!) here in Downtown.I have a second interview with a employer some 40 miles away tomorrow at 10:00 a.m.:p This job would include maintenence & housekeeping duties for 5 cabins and 6 or 7 motel rooms and would include (Drum Roll Please!! In Cheesy Announcer voice..) A newly Remodeled one bedroom Cabin and all utilities paid!! In addition, you'll also receive $8.00 U.S an hour,and A National Forest in your backyard! Now, I don't know just how I'm going to get there from here,thinking of riding my Bike through the night in a desperate attempt to get there. I'm in as good shape as anyone at 38, but that's a stretch even for me. But Coyote Luck will pull me through this somehow! DO NOT GIVE UP! EVER! Don't sacrifice your dreams for anything! If you belive,it will come true....

Hey Coyote
Good Luck with the job interview - hope it all went well. As far as getting there as they say "where there is a will there is a way" and i am thinking you have the will so will find the way.

Well, I did end up riding through the dark,cold and windy night to get to the interview,and am quite pleased with myself for that. The interview itsef went fairly well,although they expected me to have a license (mine's suspended) and car. The part that pretty much sunk me was the Background Check! (Audience Groans!) Now, like many of you, I have had a few brushes with John Law, mostly in my youth, but still enough to make a prospective employer hesitate. Also, the pay offered was $500 U.S. a month. Now, that works out to $125 a week, or about 3 8-hour days per week! :eek: This for doing all the laundry,maintenence, and being on call 24/7. Sorry, but I can do better, even just working day labor. Perhaps next time,eh chaps?;)

Well I guess you just put the interview down to experience and keep your head up and something else is bound to come along. Stay positive Coyote, you sound very determined so hang in there and something will eventuate.:)
