Over-caffeinated and under-employed.

So, I need to raise $3000 dollars by about may or june, and I have no qualms with the idea of getting it by the sweat of my brow, so to speak, but I just need to find some form of employment that will afford me such a modest amount. Keep in mind that I'll probably spend at least half of what I make on booze and shiny things, so I need to actually make around $6000, which equates to around $1000-$1200/month. This is, as I figure it, 25-30hrs/week@$10/hr or 20-25hrs/week@$12/hr, or at worst 30-35hrs/week@$8/hr. I know that beggars should try not to be choosers, but I think I'm worth at least $8/hr, so I'm not going to work for less than that. I mean, even the worst job I've ever had payed at least $8/hr. Hopefully I'll be making tips, too, which would ideally make my hourly pay approximately >$10/hr. Okay, so now that I've covered the logistics, all I need is a J-O-B. What do y'alls think of the idea of me working atthis place? It wouldn't entirely be like selling my soul, and although I'm not really confrontational enough for things like that, I figure it being all over the phone would help a bit with my "stage fright." Or perhaps I could work at a place like this. I don't even know what it's all about, but it sounds pretty rockin', doesn't it? I don't know, help me out, guys and gals, what do you think? I really want to work in a coffee shop, so if anyone reading this right now happens to, ya know, like, say, own a coffee shop, or at least manage one with such a degree of authority that they could get me hired, then please consider me for employment:) Pipe dreams. Which reminds me, I'm going to go smoke, and finish this post later.

K, I'm back. So, yeah, any thoughts from people would be appreciated. Seriously, tell me what you think. I can be reached here or here.

In other news, there are a few new people with whom I've fallen in love. I'm pretty excited about that.
