Ok, the strangest thing happened, and I could really use some feedback. I heard about this job from a friend of friend or friend kind of thing. So I put my resume together and apply. I've been out of work for a year and a half so I'll pretty much take anything at this point.
I show up, I'm shown around, asked a couple of quesitons. I give him my resume and the look on his face is "oh crap" ( this is going somewhere and relates to cd'ing) he says, hold on just one second and leaves.
Turns out my resume is exatly what they need. He offers me a job and I accept. I'm then informed that I would be best for a 3 month contract in Alaska of all place. I'm like Alaska!?!?? Oh yeah, the pay 15 an hour. Pretty low, but beggers can't be choosers.
Ok, this is poses several problems. Firstly I just cry at the thought of being away from my wife for 3 months. I don't know if I could take it. Second, I'd have to live with 3 other dudes for the 3 months. As you can guess, the only guys that do that are young 19 - 22 year olds with little to no professional experience.
I'm very much a private persona nd need my private space, I would get a room to myself as a house would be rented. Thing is, how could I manage dressing like a total guy for 3 months!!! My painted toes, boot cut jeans, and mascara are a must! I told my friend, it's not like I can just not do it, I feel compelled to. How could I possibly surpress that for months. If I didn't who know how these young arrgant macho gansta dressing dudes going to act. Sorry I'm not looking to be a stastic.
Any advice on this? My wife wants me to take it, shes at her as I haven't been able to find work. Every one I've talked to has said man.... tough call.
I'm all ears.
