I am really starting to HATE where I live. I swear, people around here don't want to have anyone with tattoos working for them. I had a job and then because of my tattoos they told me it wasn't professional. This was at a redneck resturant.mad mad

I just went to another place, completely covered. no tattoos showing, and they asked if I could work weekends and I said no. But during the week I am open and they said sorry, you have to at least work one weekend day.grumble I am a single mom trying my damndest to do what I can and I can't seem to catch a break.sad sad

I am sorry.

That is why I quit 4-1-1. They were very unfamily friendly if the family consisted of only one mom and one kid.

A lot of companies nowadays are not single parent friendly sweetie.

But I am sure you will find another job!

employers can be very selective nowdays. there are so many people looking for jobs and willing to do most anything for a dollar. working weekends is almost automatic for new hires so the senior people can be off if they want.
dont get frustated it will take time to get a good job, and remember there is a lot of compatition for what jobs there are, best of luck to you kitten

I was thinking of putting an ad in the local paper saying that I would be someones personal assistant. Run errands for them, pick the kids up from school. Make appointments for them,, etc.

Honey, you keep at it. It is a good time of year for such things, and we will all think happy thoughts for you. If worse comes to worst, you have family close.
