So instead of sitting around and complaining I decided to complain once and then actually do something about it. I've decided to start looking for a different job mainly because of fair. I either have to find a job with fewer hours, weekend off, and better pay and only work there for two months and just take a leave of absense from Kroger, or find that kind of job and quit Kroger all together.
I've been kind of beebopping around on Craigslist and I've found out what kind of job I think I'd like. I part time nanny job. From what I can see on craigslist I'd love to have a "Pick up my children help them with their homework and prepare them a snack job" Those seem to be paying alot, are decent and rather flexible hours, and mostly weekends off. Heck eventually I wouldn't mind an in home nanny job. My only issue is most of these listings were requiring at least two years experience with children. I have alot of unofficial baby sitting under my belt but nothing that I would consider actual experience because their aren't actual references to back it up. When I was in ballet and whenever we had ballet school wide performances I would always be assigned to watch the little ones and keep the entertained.
But anyways I've been looking for that job, and I signed up for a photography class with a local studio. Its $300 for four days of instruction buuuuuut i'm not just paying for the classes I'm paying for an extended relationship with the studio. Linda (the owner of the studio) offers internships, and assistant jobs in her studio, but only to those who have gone through her class. I'll be working in a real studio and learning so much!


Good luck with the new job search. If I was working I would hire you on. But sorry, I stay at home all day. I know, I know, not good for business. Did you try looking on Backpage as well? They sometimes have more postings than craigslist.
Lady ShadowSad to say, but some parents will only accept people if they have the college degree saying that they are a good nanny. So watch out for those. I wish you the best of luck in finding a position though.
Plus, I cant wait until you start your Photo classes and can share some of your work.
