Day 14

Woke up with the left side of my face malfunctioning. I took some Zyrtec and I think it fixed it. My allergies are finally acting up. I wonder if its caused by dust or pollen, because I've had allergy histories involving both.

I brewed a big pot of Barry's Irish Breakfast, enough for two mugs. The first mug has a little too much sugar in it, so it's kind of throwing me off. I was reading up on tea, and apparently it is generally agreed that 300mg of caffeine is the line for safe consumption. That being said, No Name (used to be call Cocaine, if you remember. I never tried it though.) has the most caffeine out of any energy drink. I just divided all the larger ones into an 8oz. portion... but even before "weight adjusting", No Name had a higher caff count than most. It has 280mg per can, which is 8.4 oz. I was a bit surprised. Personally I like Amp, from Mountain Dew. It gets me going, and I prefer the taste over other energy drinks. I can't really stand Red Bull anymore because of a certain 'bomb incident.

Anyway, THE JOB SEARCH IS ON! All you stores that I skipped, WATCH OUT! I'm talking to you, Radio Shack and fro-yo places and... and... DUNKIN' DONUTS! Oh and Urban Outfitters I TOTALLY forgot them. It's like I just overlooked every establishment within a 1 block radius of me.

Currently I've been working on Radio Shack's online application. I applied last year and never ever got a reply. It's got a similar layout to Payless' online app. Payless had this one question that went something like "Would you leave if you were offered a similar job at another establishment but paid more?" I totally answered "yes", who wouldn't? But looking back, I probably should have put "nononononono no NOOOO!". Probably a trick question D: Radio Shack's application is pretty slow. It's administered by a separate company though, NexisLexis. The fact that the copyright year at the bottom of the page is 2009 concerns me.

EDIT 12:09 AM

I ended up on craigslist because I was getting desperate. I got a call from Pier 1 and I have an interview on Wednesday. Not bad. I hope they pay (well)! I didn't end up doing my workout so I will have to do it tomorrow (later today)

I fixed the second mug of tea sometime and something was a bit wonky with it I'm not sure what it was. Maybe not enough cream...
