Today, Starbucks phoned me wanting to know if I was still interested in working there. I flooded all locations in the CBD back in February, hoping the kindred souls would save me from my dire conditions as a result of my restaurant job. I remember after each time I talked to a manager and handed in my resume I knew that "they would call me" and that I wouldnt need to pass out any more resumes for the afternoon. Low and behold I never got any calls. Today this woman asked me if I was still interested in "joining the Starbucks team" and had to bite my togne, as I had always planned to seek revenge against the establishment that rejected me ten times over. I kindly explained that I would be leaving for vacation, and would be away for a few months. I then asked her what location she was calling from, because I had "applied at a couple" I said. "Oh yes, I see that, I am calling on behalf of the downtown district." How embarassing, they are now aware that I am probably the most desperate person on the planet, and refused to take the hint from the first 9 locations, as I applied at 10 different shops. I had always planned to seek revenge on this place, should they give me a delayed phone call, something along the lines of "Oh Im sorry, no one ever bothered to call me 2 months ago, so I went elsewhere." That would teach them that no one neglects B's requests. I wanted to sternly respond "do you know what I have been going through at my other jobs!? DO YOU! why didnt you call me months ago!" But I have decided that I have burned enough bridges in my lifetime, and its time to start reversing the destruction, despite how boring that is.
Check back tomorrow for the latest installment of my art collection, and coming shortly will be blog postings from abroad! How very exciting!
