  • So my life seems to be picking up a little . . . gig wise.  Thats a good thing. 

    I still have no job.  Thats a bad thing.  I'm either over qualified, not enough experience (),
    or they are freaked out at the fact that I have a Bachelors and Masters
    degree in Music Performance.  *sigh*  (not enough
    experience?? I have 10 years in office experience.  for crying out
    loud)

    So I do my gigs . . . I'll make about 500 bucks this month.  Not bad. 

    My rent is 560.





    Soooo yeah I need to do something. 



    What about bartending . . .
    anyone know anything about that?  I think I'd be good at it. 
    I'm very personable, I listen (I'm tall, so not many people would try
    to mess with me . . . I hope) . . . I have a great memory for drinks
    and things.  Do I really need training for it?  Meh. 



    Oh well . . . the search continues tomorrow.  Wish me luck.

  • bad back?? wow!! good thing you play the horn... can you imagine your pain if you played the cello or the tuba?? i got bad knees so the camera is just perfecto for the weight ratio!!

    yea, fumeeees chica, fumes!!!

  • Glad the gigs are picking up.

    Sorry about the job search.

    Bartending could be really cool in the interim.

  • I know nothing about bartending but it's probably worth a shot, huh?

    Good luck!

  • do portraits!!!

  • Yeah, why not portrait photography?  Or pet photography, that's a business that is picking up, especially with Thanksgiving, Halloween, and Christmas coming up!  But Bartending could be very cool.  Good luck in the job search.  What instrument do you play?   -JJ

  • all i life i've been doing portraits and general photography outdoors with NO lights, backgrds or flash. you don't need anything but time and a camera and a ViSiOn on how you want your portraits to be. praCtiCe!!! i've never won any lotteries... though i really need to!! i'd love to teach you how to see... besos and take care!!!

  • ryc:  thanks for all your comments!!   You know, if you have a decent camera, you can make a shitload of money photographing horse shows.

  • SYRACUSE REFUSED ME AN AUDITION!!!  Did you get one?  I won't hold it against you -- in fact, I'll still put you up, if you want.  They said in the letter I could write and dispute their decision -- I think I might, because they're probably looking at my resume and thinking, "Music Ed major at Roberts what college???  No way!!"  So I need to tell them I don't suck -- maybe send some recommendations...  sigh...  Anyway, hope you find a job soon -- I would love to bartend, but I don't know any drinks.  You have fun, though!

  • Dunno about your state, but in mine you hafta get licensed to bartend.
