Well, it was a decent 4-5 week job. I really only got over 30 hours one week and every other week was between 15 and 25. I was truly hoping and expecting that I would have gotten 40 hours every week…at least that is what I thought I was going to get since it was a full time seasonal job. Beggars can’t be choosers so…..
I may have a lead on a job with a commercial insurance company so keep your fingers crossed for me please.
Macy’s has asked me to stay on till at least January 16th to assist with inventory, that is great news…a few more weeks of earing some cash. I am glad to have this opportunity.
I’m trying to prove myself so that if there is an opening in the near future, they think if me first. I speak to so many people at Macy’s and in my neighborhood about jobs and everyone is hurting. This economy is terrible. I don’t believe the hype about the recession being over…I think it is far from over.
What do you think? Is the recession over? Leave a comment below.
I’ve been working at Macy’s for a few weeks now and on one hand I am glad to have the temporary job but it is a little like a kids preschool. The sales people, who are all 100% commission, are very cut-throatish…and I’m talking to each other. They really don’t like having the temporary people because we take sales away from them. I can understand their situation.
I was left alone all night in my department and did pretty well. The computer/register isn’t that hard to learn and I was able to handle every situation that came my way.
I was given a questionnaire to fill out, they wanted to know if I had any interest in working there after the holidays. I said yes but I had to give them a schedule of my availability and I am not sure if it will fit into their needs. I’m hoping it does because I need the JOB bad. I’d bust my ass and become their biggest selling salesperson in record time.
I’ll write more tomorrow after working 11 hours, tomorrow is going to suck bug time. My feet are going to hurt from about lunch time on and they just might try to “overthrow” me in a coup.
WOW is all I can say. It was hectic but I had help and she was extremely nice. I am kind of bummed though regarding my hours. I was hired and told that I would have full time hours but I don’t have any hours next week.
I guess I’ll keep hitting the job boards hard, I let up for about a week but starting tomorrow, I’ll plug away again.
Today I worked 3:30pm to 11:20pm. I had an hour break and I spent it at the food court of all places. The mall was packed so I hope that all the stores did well today. My feet are killing me!!!! Standing for all those hours hurts like a m@#$%& fu$%(#!!!!
