Think I got it

I went for an interview at the airport the other day.  I am pretty sure I got the job but they are waiting on the paperwork.  They also need to do a background check.  I am not worried about that part...I have nothing to hide.  The pay is not what I would like and the hours are not guaranteed full time but I will take it because I need a job.  I retired at a bad time; the economy is not good so a lot of people are looking for jobs.  I sent my resume to another company in the hopes they will keep me in mind if a position opens up.  They replied saying something is opening in September but they are taking internal applicants first.  That's understandable but it would be a job that would challenge me.  I have done most aspects of the job at different times during my first career and I would have to learn what I have not done...but it would be a great opportunity for me.

I had always said my retirement plan was winning the lottery.  That never happened but I am still trying.  I know that I won't win any amount big enough to live off it...it would be nice though.  I think of the people I would help and how nice it would be to be debt free.  That is all I really want....to be debt free.  

Where to begin

This is new to me.  It has been over 20 years since I needed a job.  I just retired and started applying online.  So much easier than my younger days when you had to physically go to locations and fill out an application.  But not so easy as to get a call or message saying they were interested.  In fact, if I heard from anyone, it was to say they hired someone else or I didn't meet the qualifications.

I had my first interview yesterday though.  I thought it went well but I have to wait and see.  It would be nice to get it even though it is part time.  I need the money to pay bills and be able to feed the family.  Which by the way, is four people and three dogs.  Anyway, I am hoping to hear something positive.

I sent my resume to another company yesterday so I could be considered if anything opened up.  Actually got a message back saying it was sent to another person because a position will be open in September.  I would prefer sooner but that is still before my other pay stops.

I will stop by later and post what happens or doesn't happen.
