Waking up to people banging on the wall that is next to my room, is not my ideal wake up call. I rather be woken up with tender kisses. But defenitly not from the guys working on our house, or any other guy. This morning was good. I cleaned the entire kitchen and living room area. Dusted the couches and mopped our floors. Now i'm resting thinking about my meeting with the bilingual group from the church I've been attending.
Looking at getting a job. A part time to bring a few extra bucks, get ahead on paying the bills and have a little extra for a rainy day. While I was at the local mini market the carnicero told me, while holding a conversation about work, he needed some help. He encouraged me to get an application for employement and not to worry about "paperwork". Sounds good to me. I can see myself wearing a white apron all stained with blood from handling the meat. Talk to the local clientele. Work is work que no?
I think I have a pretty good chance at getting hired. Here is my resume, what do you guys think?:
