PGD: Happy Birthday, Red!

[Legendary Pikachu]

EDIT: Also, @you and LDPK: Yeah, it's just.... hard to find something in a big city where everyone's fighting for the same thing. I've never had a problem getting a job before, but now people are scrambling even for the **** nobody used to want. It's crazy.

I guess its very hard then. I have been taking some business classes along with some economics classes, and have found some worthwhile things to know:

1) Develop your 'Unique Selling Point"-- something that only you, with all your experiences now (even Brawl ones... who knows) could do that no one else can do or even come close.

My lil' brother loved games and even now he loves brawl and melee although he has some complaints. His experiences with games and his frustration in dissappointing games/environments stirred his being so much that he's aiming to become a video game developer (AND HE's MAKIN' IT HAPPEN TOO!). He's done some programming for friends in the meantime and creating education games/software in the meantime for schools and clubs to build his programming portfolio. He's recently got accepted to DigiPen University right next to Nintendo and Microsoft USA headquarters--elite in videogame degrees and training, and will be finishing his master's over there in the future.

2) If you build up trust with any group of people (maybe with church members or something) you could volunteer to babysit (which should still be in demand around some parts of the city).

3) You could always get someone fired on basis of bad service/work ethic--then promote yourself for the job after they get the boot. (a tactic I tried once for a radioshack store job.... lol, I asked a worker if he know about the stock of a few items or wondered if he knew what some of his items actually did [an example being a dazzle recorder]... he had NO CLUE... sometimes it does work if done in front of their supervisors)... >:D

4) Start sellin' old junk on ebay for the time being?

5) Go to DaveRamsey.com. A friend of mine gave me website reference... although it doesn't specifically tell you how to land a job specifically, its a neat find if you REALLY want to MAXIMIZE whatever money you do get.

6) Very deep quote that applies to life and the workplace: "No one will care how much you know, until they know how much you care..." If the manager notices that you care deeply about something that they are looking for, that REALLY makes a difference in a pool of desperate people who apply--take this from an assistant manager (me).
Hope that helps. ^_^

Tell your friends to refer you. My friend got me a part time receptionist gig at her office. She just told them I am trilingual, a student at USD and really nice. Got that part time gig in a flash. I'm like the youngest person there by like 5 years lol.

My friend tried referring me to Vector (which is almost a scam) and made $89 without doing anything the second week. Play your cards right if you decide to go into that **** cuz at vector they look for any way to rip you off .

**** thats cutthroat.

 

[momochuu]

**** making a hail team is hard... x.x

 

[T3h Albino]

It didn't use to be when garchomp was legal.
My new RD team has machamp and pure fighter weakness...even though i run zapdos with no drill peck ;_;

 

[Ephyon]

I might have a job soon...at a place.. :x Not too honorable, but it's a job. x.x;

if you get to be a cute waitress I want to be your first customer.

 

[Asdioh]

its funny jobs want sexy females to be at the front, makes the product look good. i heard the GM of my papa johns store mention that all he wants as phone takers and cashier runners are "hot girls". his exact words XD

The 16-year-old girl isn't sexy though >_>

Unless of course you consider very very fat girls sexy.



Speaking of Rain Dance and Hail teams, my Sandstorm team will probably suck whenever I finally finish it :D

 

[KayLo!]

Ephy, you're a ****ing creeper.

EDIT: I mean that in the nicest way possible, btw, but I'm still serious.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

Unless of course you consider very very fat girls sexy.

do you know who i am?

 

[KayLo!]

do you know who i am?

XD I refreshed the page and lol'd.

<3 Stealth

 

[Pikabunz]

Are we still doing facts? I want Stealth to be next.

 

[bigman40]

Stealth eats these like it's normal.

Eh yo, can I get a resize?!

YO I GOT CHU KAYLO!

 

[Ephyon]

Ephy, you're a ****ing creeper.

EDIT: I mean that in the nicest way possible, btw, but I'm still serious.

well look who's jealous over there.

 

[Legendary Pikachu]

*picture*

Wow.... talk about a heart attack... for Stealth OR for the viewer of the pic. O_O

 

[Pikabunz]

That looks so good! I'm so hungry.

 

[KayLo!]

@Ephy: Lol, I'm a girl on the internet. It's impossible to be jealous when you're one out of like.... 3.

I don't care who you're talking to..... I tell Stealth he's creepy all the time when he says **** to me. It's annoying when you have Joe Random Smasher saying you're "sexy" or "hot" when they barely even know you and will never meet you in person.

It's actually borderline disrespectful, so I'm just calling you out on it.

 

[~automatic]

Ciao Ephy, come vai? Ho bisogno di praticare il mio italiano.
Rispete le donne!

[Pikabunz]

That burger doesn't look as good small.

 

[KayLo!]

Cute, sexy, hot, whatever. You're being creepy. Just accept the fact and move on.

 

[.AC.]

[T3h Albino]

*sniff* *sniff*
Is something burning?

 

[Ephyon]

[Kenrawr]

Nah, she's pretty ****ing dead on.

Go back to lurking.

 

[momochuu]

Ephy you ARE pretty creepy sometimes. I just ignore it and move on.


I dunno if I wanna Pokesav or breed this team. Probably would Pokesav if I had a freakin' computer right now. x.x

Burger looks gross btw.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

am i creepy bunny? or am i not trying hard enough?

 

[Ephyon]

you're not that better, "queen of" - um. :x
*points at random people*
all of you are as well, since you wasted a good 1 1/2 pages on someone's sizes.

 

[KayLo!]

YO I GOT CHU KAYLO!

Lol. Why is Bigman such the ****?!?!?! <333

I dunno if I wanna Pokesav or breed this team. Probably would Pokesav if I had a freakin' computer right now. x.x

Find someone to Pokesav it for you. Breeding takes waaaaaaay too long.

I'd offer, but Pokesav is too big for this comp. -_-

I want my laptop back, god****it.

@Stealth's "hi sexy": You're so intentionally creepy, it loses its impact after a while. x.o

 

[T3h Albino]

Shoddy.....cmon gais <_<

Someone shoddy me pl0xkthnx

 

[Stealth Raptor]

sigh thats what i figured :'(

 

[momochuu]

Yeah, last thing I bred was a Scyther and it took DAYS. I quit after that.

Gonna look for someone with Pokesav.

 

[KayLo!]

Shoddy.....cmon gais <_<

Someone shoddy me pl0xkthnx

I use Shoddy sometimes, but it's nice to actually have the team on your game. Dunno. It's not super important, though, which is why I just Pokesav.

BTW, IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

Xiivi says he will no longer be posting outside of the mod social. He wants to preserve his 0 post count. =X

 

[Pikabunz]

How did he get 0 post count? :o

I have Pokesav, btw.

 

[Lore]

You're just a horny little lesbian.

I should sig that.

Also I was desensitized to the Internet years ago.

Same.

So who likes Animal Crossing?

http://lparchive.org/LetsPlay/Animal Crossing/index.html


Read this story. Even if you hate AC with a passion.

Hahaha, I saw that a long time ago. It's still great, though.

Gonna look for someone with Pokesav.

I can do it.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

he can always talk by editing the op/thread title

 

[KayLo!]

Lol. I like this talking-through-the-thread-title thing.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

I already told kaylo that Stealth.

well the fact that i said it actually made it a SEXY idea, not just a good one

 

[~automatic]

It's like communicating w/ a ghost or spirit using the ouija board but he's using the Pikachu board instead.
