#just hire me and i’ll do it
Text
Todays the day. I need to get a job, even if that jobs not in the gaming industry. So I’m heading to the library to print up a resume and apply at a little local chain of mattress stores.
The guy instantly liked me when I went in to do a secret shop for a competing store and offered to hire me on the spot so I figure if I can chat with him he’ll still like me enough to consider me.
#ramblies#I’m dreading this so much I had dreams about getting hired by dropout tv instead#also my beloved was very sweet and when I said this was hard reassured me that I can do hard things#I wish I could wait for an industry job but it’s just not feasible#because we desperately need to move my beloved out of our current carpeted home#and moving costs are no joke#I’ll also need to get myself a laptop so I can keep honing rigging skills at the mattress job which I’m dreading#I have little to know idea how much I’ll need to invest to get a machine that can run Maya like a champ#which I’ll also need to buy an indie Maya license#god life is stressful and expensive#I long to be a little renaissance artist kept in a garret making what I please on the funds of patrons#alas

So I was musing to Mags about how somehow in the last few years, after being weirdly unapproachable (and really awkward with children) all my life, I am now often the person that single mothers will approach to take a family photo for them, or small children will abruptly hand their toys off to with no warning.
And then I realized (after a moment, because I rarely get to go out around people anymore except when my dad abducts me for a tiny vacation, so I don't have a lot of normal life to compare that to) that all those experiences actually happened in museums and aquariums and zoos, where I am not more outgoing but I am much brighter and smiling more than usual and almost always sharing random facts with my dad because infodumping is my love language...
And then I realized these people are approaching me because when I am in that specific environment, I am giving off very chill Ms. Frizzle vibes.
#personal post#okay to reblog#if someone could just hire me to share random facts at a museum or aquarium or whatever?#honestly I feel I’d be a delightful addition to most places#I can be Ms Frizzle any time I enter any of these places#IMAGINE IF I HAD TIME TO STUDY A SPECIFIC THING#I’ll do the wig and themed dress if you want tbh that sounds awesome#some museum or place of learning pls hire me#@montereybayaquarium looking at you#literally grew up there hire me as your chill non-kidnapping ms frizzle to share facts about the kelp forests#I’d be a lot less awkward with kids if it were socially acceptable for me to just share facts about sea urchins you know?

writing this in the tags bc i need to articulate it somewhere that isn’t to my mother on the phone
#I work at a firm w seven (well. six.) partners#so they are all technically my bosses but I rlly only do work for two /maybe/ four of them#i was hired under the guise of being my one boss’ like. protege.#as in when he retires I’ll take over his practice. and also he’s so busy that i could help some of that now.#his area of practice is like. so complex and huge that it isn’t something u learn in months. maybe not even years.#but atp what happens is he meets directly w the clients and then i do literally everything else.#which is fine. except for two things.#1) he has now started joking about how he’s going to be ‘the face’ of it while i do everything#which wouldn’t bother me so much if he was Paying Me For It.#bc 2) he’s only allocating HALF. my hourly rate for those type of clients#I spend. idk prob 70% of my billable hours on his clients. and he’s only allocating half my hourly for them.#and im just like. I wasn’t hired to be ur assistant 😭 im an attorney too 😭 teach me???????????#some days when I really sit and think abt it it just makes me want to switch to directly report to my other boss#i looooove working for my other boss. and i rlly enjoy his area of practice too!!!!#and he like. has basic respect for me as an attorney 😭#anyway idk. it gets more frustrating the more responsibility i take on………….#thoughts inspired by good boss apologizing to me today for overstepping me while talking to a client#and referring to it as being like my bad boss 😭#not bad. he isn’t a bad boss. i just. idk KENFKWNFKSNDK

conflicted!!!
#finally got the guts to start applying to other jobs#which obvi doesn’t guarantee that I’ll get an interview let alone an offer#but im also applying to non law jobs and im like ugh about being a lawyer so much of the time#but then when i think about not being one it feels weird??#but i hate court with every fiber of my being???#and after my time at small law firms im like lol no thanks I want a sliver of job security like just the tiniest amount#so if I do a non law job I’m like could I do something law later if I miss it or would nobody hire me at that point?#too bad teaching is so chaotic I’ve wanted to be a teacher forever :(#ugh and of course i don’t really care about work like work is just to pay for living and life is outside of work!!#so many tags thanks for reading if you did 😭#katie.txt

I lied: I probably will be posting a proper commission sheet sometime in the coming week, maybe this weekend, it all depends on what like I’ve got going on (as I’ve said June is a really busy month so if anything it may be late June before I’m like opening commissions) sorry in advance for that!!
#I wanna be able to dedicate time to making art that people commissioning me deserve and give it my best effort!!#I’m also going to be applying to new jobs this month because I cannot keep working this stupid odd job I do not get enough hours or make#enough money to like Live and if I want to move out with my roommates I need to figure shit out#and I’ll probably (hopefully) make more doing commissions than I will like at whatever shit job I get if I can even get one because no one#is ever hiring because I live in hell <3#also pls bear with me when i start commissions if im a bit slow i have to deal with a tablet that constantly runs out of storage and just#like in general am very very slow when it comes to art the inventory sheets I made for my own ocs took so long like an embrassing amount of#time tbh#sorry again for the rambles I am like sleep deprived and I tend to be extra chatty when I am and I jsut need to shush and go to main#I also need to get up and finish making a pitcher of tea so I’m gonna do that now k byeeee <3

#I keep saying that I feel like I need a second job or more hours at work#because we’re in such a bad spot financially#meanwhile my body can’t handle the hours I’m already doing#idk what to do#I doubt I’ll be able to get a desk job when Starbucks won’t even hire me#I wanted to take on more hours at work but due to not having a car I’ve been stuck being dropped off early and picked up late#and even that extra hour and a half a shift has nuked me this week#there’s so much that goes into it#people being like ‘just get disability’ like and ruin the rest of my life?#but also not being able to just ‘not work because I’m disabled’ because my household literally can’t support itself if I don’t work#personal

so I’ve never worked in food service or hospitality (technically? not sure what my last job counts as but functionally it was more like security than anything) does anyone have any tips or anything for being a restaraunt host/server (in a hotel but that’s not that important here)
#important note: i am on the spectrum#and I’m pretty good at masking and being in social situations when I need to be/when I’m prepared for it. but it also can be draining#especially when things happen that are too unexpected / not planned for#before anyone says anything about Why I’d Take This Job if this is the case- it’s the best I could do man. I was overqualified for#cleaning/dishwashing and underqualified for most other positions#server/busser sounds preferable but I’ll have to work up to that since it’s a little higher in the ladder than host- but the manager said#she could have me cross-trained so I could do that job if/when I need to. but anyway yeah also the manager pushed me towards host#cause I didn’t actually apply to be a host I applied to be a server/busser/runner#but. I just wanted to get hired so.#I ain’t about to pass up 18 bucks an hour man that’s the best I’m gonna get anywhere#anyway. uhhhhhhhh yeah I’m hoping it’s as scripted as I’ve heard it can be#kibumblabs

me every time I think about the current state of The Amazing Spider-Man comics: Here’s How Peter Can Still Win
#spider-man#I’m concocting schemes and plans that would bring it out on top I swear#hire me marvel but only after Quesada is fired#I’ll have Dan Slott doing letters while I’m fixing their fucking mistakes#it ain’t fuckin much but it’s honest work#listen so we have to reveal that current MJ is a fake. go animated series on them.#fuck them kids. fuck former aid to genocide with a boring ass name Paul#give the Jackpot thing to someone else. it’s a good gimmick but please for the love of god not on MJ#fix poor fucking Ben Reilly and maybe just let him stay dead#tackling the Parker Industries bullshit is gonna be harder#but it all culminates in beating the everloving shit out of Mephisto#Peter and MJ reunite and are once again best friends#and this one could be controversial but hear me out: Peter and MJ polyamorous relationship on and off w Felicia Hardy#since Harry is alive again (even though it’s stupid) maybe him too#things gradually fall back in place as they were before#Peter isn’t ‘dated’ bc he’s been around since the fucking 60s and he finally has a chance to grow up and be an adult again#and we focus on the other plethora of teen superheroes that are now around#bc Spider-Man may have been the first teen superhero but he doesn’t own it and the point of his character is not ‘youth’#listen. I’m so anguished every time I think about the comics.#I don’t want it to be destroyed I don’t want it to be irreparable#it sucks that any other marvel characters can keep running but Spider-Man is just going straight in the dumpster bc of idiots at the top

Also I can’t figure out if my life genuinely does suck or I’m just having an existential crisis because my period starts in approximately 48 hours
#it does make me worse ngl. i wish i could just yeet my uterus#i was just starting to think about how all my days are the same and it’s boring and i’m boring#and i never see anybody or meet new people or make new friends#working from home is all well and good until it makes you want to [redacted]#and you all can say ‘just leave your house!’ as much as you want but living in a small town and having no car is not really conducive#to getting myself out there#i mean my town literally has about a dozen businesses and half of them are sad pubs. the others are like hair salon; co-op; church; butcher#2 takeaways. and yeah there’s parks but all of them are kind of dire#maybe i could start getting the bus places. going somewhere else. idk#i have been thinking about taking a trip but wherever i go i still take myself and it’s like i’m in this state of permanent malaise#too nervous to talk to anyone and too impatient to linger anywhere or enjoy anything#everything i do i rush through so i can do something else#and i think amongst it all i’m just reckoning with the fact that i’m never going to be remarkable. i mean neither is anyone else really#but i always thought i’d write a novel or become a college professor or something but i’m not smart enough and i don’t have enough words#or ideas in me. not really. i’m not a creative i’m just an imitator. always have been#and i could live with being unremarkable because we all are in the cosmic universe but i still don’t think i can live with rotting#in my hometown. but then it’s like how do i get out?#i signed up for an online course just to vary things a bit. just to get some enrichment in my enclosure#it’s this slow realisation that i thought i Wanted to work at home. i thought i liked the peace of it. just me and the computer screen#but no i like to work outside and then come back to my home as my sanctuary. i have to leave it sometimes to really appreciate it#but no one wants to hire me for an intellectual job because i’m not actually that smart. and my body is too broken to work in hospitality#anymore. or is it. i mean for god’s sake i can run three times a week but i don’t trust myself to be able to stand for hours#i’m thinking about throwing myself on the mercy of my old boss like hey. i fucked up. do you have any shifts for me? i’ll do weekends#i just don’t want to lose my fucking mind#maybe i’ll text her tomorrow. the worst thing she can say is no#personal

Beautiful thing happened today: the guy doing headshots had these brilliant nautical tattoos and I, a known ship nerd, pointed them out and said I thought they were brilliant. And he launched into how for 12 years he worked on a tall ship at one point as the captain. He got all excited telling me about it and asked if I was working on any ships. I said no, but I’d love to, have wanted to ever since I was a kid; he asks if I know so-and-so, to call him and even just being a passenger will get you credit with skippers. And at this point I’m grinning and laughing and I really want to talk more about sailing and historical stuff with this guy. He goes “Right tilt your head this way, you wanna look warm and approachable yet tough for any skippers!” Probably the best headshots I’ll ever get, those smiles were sincere. Then he recommended me his favourite book - its 700 pages and it’s 300 years of historical fiction called “We, The Drowned” which I’m checking out asap because it sounds brilliant
#I really wanted to know what got him from sailing ships to doing headshots for actors!#like#TELL ME MORE!#this guy was so full of energy too#he seemed happy that someone was interested in his ink! and sailing#he was so cool omg#he was giving me a bunch of advice too!!#I told him I went into stage combat and theatre coz of my epilepsy but my first choice ever since I was a little kid was to be a sailor#a tall ship sailor! captain even!#and he was like fuck yeah you can still do that! if you can do all this stage combat stuff you should be fine getting hired!#he also you could always just not tell them and act surprised if you DO have a seizure - but probably let em know#I was over the MOON!#hes friends with the guy I work with so hopefully I’ll get to meet him again#everyone knows each other here lol#hey take a shot every time I say brilliant#anyways

one thing about my new job is that they’re making me do anything and everything they can on the pretense that “it’s a small company and everyone does a bit of everything sometimes” as if my actual job isn’t already a lot most times
#i was hired to do graphic design and marketing (which that in itself are two very different things lmao)#but they’re also making me visit the 26 stores to check that everything is set in place#which i could get bc it involves making sure all the signs and posters are correctly set in place blablabla#and also know to then be in charge or somethings that have to do with the company’s computing system LMAOOOO????? bro wtf#and they’re also making me do a formation course this week as tho i’ll be a barista which okay it’s kinda cool to know this but#everyone keeps telling me it’s probably so i can go up and help in the kitchen and w the coffees when needed which makes sense lmao#amd there are being so many issues (not involving me) these past week and a half and i just kdjdjdd#the two baristas at the store where my office is located have resigned and i liked them sm fjdkkdd#rip anyway#i had to vent good day#ktp#sorry for any typos lol#also like the design and marketing stuff obviously (lol) include photography and social media mangement and video editing and—#man am i in for a ride…

Trying to find a job as an dog trainer is like:
Text a local trainer acquaintance- “Hey! I hope you’re doing well. I’m unfortunately hunting for a job again. Do you know of any opportunities or have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!”
They respond- “Hey! Hmm, it might be worth reaching out to So-and-so at New R+ Training Facility. I’ve been teaching there since [redacted]. The facility is AMAZING. Just to be transparent, So-and-so is fucking awful, just such a mean person. But she’s always looking for more instructors!”
Just fucking put me out of my misery.
#I cannot go to another toxic training workplace#I just can’t#for anyone who saw my previous vague post on the subject—#I was suddenly laid off on Thurs#it was amicable but still feels really bad#and now I’m scrambling to figure out what to do#I’m hoping my friend who recently started a board and train business will be able to hire me part time#and then I’ll have to maybe go back to pet sitting or try to start doing in-home training#because there are NO local job openings that I can find#anyway shit sucks#I’m feeling increasingly disillusioned with this industry as a whole#like I may just have to do my own thing even though the imposter syndrome is Real
