Applied for another job

Well I sent out my resume and references to the local library.  They had a job posting for a Library Page in the newspaper.  It’s part time for night and weekends.  They said 10-15 hours a week.  I’m assuming probably minimum wage.

It would be a nice second job to pick up.  After loading trucks all day at UPS pushing a cart around and shelving books would be a wonderful change!  I could handle it easily and it would be a great job.  Shelving and stacking books in a nice quiet environment for an hour or two every night.  Pure bliss!

I cranked out a cover letter and stuff my resume into a letter and headed downtown to the post office to drop it in the mailbox.  It should get delivered tomorrow so I hope I’m one of the first to get my resume in.

I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed.
