Update XV: Stuck Inside of Tulsa with the Oklahoma City Blues Again

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

Jeff, if you actually completed the program, why isn't Metro Tech acknowledging that you did by sending your certificate?

you'd have to ask them.  My grades are all in m so there's literally nothing standing between me and a CAD job except applying and interviewing,

Weren't you supposed to ask them weeks ago? Come on, man, take some initiative. Actually do something with your life. Quit saying "I will" and actually do it. You keep saying that the past is the past and doesn't matter going forward, but you're still just doing the same unproductive things.

Excuse me for getting caught up in actually doing something MORE important like APPLYING FOR JOBS!!!

No, Jeff. That's a lie. You're telling me you've had no free time to call or email Metro Tech? You're napping and posting on the forum. You have plenty of time to send a quick email or make a quick phone call. You could do so as you drive to Braums. As long as you keep making excuses like that one, you'll never be able to succeed. Take responsibility for your actions instead of making excuses.

It is more of a delusion than a lie. Bushie avoids potentially unpleasant situations at all costs, seems he is afraid of the answers he will get back.

I'm not afraid,  I just have bigger fish to fry.

The fact remains I am doing what I need to to find myself a job.   I'm not ashamed of anything I'm doing right now.   Emailing them or calling them is not my top priority right now and not should it be.   I'll send them an email in the morning,  but I'm not going to worry about it.   I'm going to continue to apply for CAD jobs as well as other jobs.

I never said it should be your top priority. It absolutely shouldn't be your top priority; however, it should rank above napping, Braums, and the forum (among others). It's pretty clear that you're hiding something. Ultimately, I really don't care that you are, but you're screwing yourself over by not simply being honest. I hope you're at least being honest with potential employers.

In Bushie's defense, it was mid-July before I got my diploma from undergrad and I still haven't received my law school degree and I graduated May 11.

But did those schools tell you that you would get your stuff weeks/months before you actually did?  Bushie may very well have graduated, but his hesitancy to ask is suspicious.  It would literally take less than 5 minutes to contact the school, and yet he's claiming he doesn't have time to do that because it would eat into his job search time.  That's just not accurate.

It was pretty common knowledge that we'd get our actual diplomas mid-summer. I never asked, but I could see online that I met the credits needed and GPA to graduate. I'm not sure why Bushie is so hesitant to call and ask, which is why I am starting to suspect that he didn't graduate, especially in light of his comments that he's going to make a call center a career.

I get so hot when you start using caps to put your point across. So just curious, do you actually apply for jobs every minute of every hour between 9am and 5pm? Monday thru Friday?

[Joe Biden 2020]

I just sent the school and my instructor an e-mail asking the status of the certificate. I will now wait for a response.

I'm already started on my job search for today and have one application already in this morning.

What kind of jobs are you putting in applications for?  Are you looking at those websites that Inks and Joe Republic pointed out, to find retail jobs?

Those are included, but I just put in for a computer job - not a CAD(D) job, but an E-Commerce/Computer Science job that I went to college for.  Most of the time, it is customer service, clerical, technical support, and CAD(D).  I do look at the retail job side of craigslist, too.

Again, not to harp on the retail thing, but it still seems like the easiest option to explore, given that you just said yesterday that at this point you'd settle for anything.  Can't you just go to a mall, and ask a bunch of stores if they're hiring?  Don't those kinds of jobs have high turnover, such that there's likely to be an opening *somewhere* at a given point in time?  Or is the job market really that tight in Tulsa?

[Joe Biden 2020]

I just found a beginning drafting job that says it's perfect for someone right out of drafting school.  It is a temp to hire position.  The ad was posted on Craigslist just after 9:00 am CDT this morning (45 minutes ago), I pounced on it immediately sent her my resume and immediately called her.  So, I've got an interview at 11:00.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Woohoo! Way to go!

[Potus]

Woohoo! Way to go!

[Mr. Morden]

Woohoo! Way to go!

[Joe Biden 2020]

The interview was quick, but very good.  The recruiter has forwarded my resume over to the company and we're just waiting to hear about the next steps.  I don't know the name of the company, all I know it's in West Tulsa. The recruiter seems confident and that makes me feel confident.  Now, we wait.

Whenever Bushie is confident, bad things happen
Also, how does one apply for a job and not know the name of the company?

[WalterMitty]

bushie, in hindsight would you say it was not good to leave cadd on such bad terms?

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Interviewing for an unknown company isn't uncommon. My sister did that when she went through a recruiter. She found out who they were shortly afterwards which company it was.

I hope he gets it, but I always worry because he often gets excited and then gets turned down.

What happened to that company he interviewed with that he claimed loved god and discussed church services regularly?

I left on great terms, so your question is irrelevant.

I'm cautiously optimistic.

That other job turned me down as well.
