I just called one of the Starbucks stores I applied to online a few days ago to confirm that they recieved my application. I asked to speak to the person in charge of hiring and the girl said "Yeah.. it'll be... ooone moment. Can you wait?" I said "sure" She set the phone down, I could hear people talking and this guy asking if someone was going to hand him a box. I could hear her and she never said anything about anyone being on the phone. I probably waited for three minutes and the line got disconnected. Should I even call back? Do I really want to work with this girl? haha
True that. I have no way of getting there right now though. I could walk but it's hot and I don't want to be sweaty and gross when I go in there. I'll need to arrange a ride and stop by. But in the meantime should I call them back?
Yeah I've been in the same position. CA is a rough place to try and find a job right now period, mix in a small town and high unemployment and it's just a mess. Keep lookin though.
Call back or yeah go in. Please be the first person to walk at starbucks that's not a complete tool that doesn't know shit about coffee.
Seriously. It sucks. If I had a stable place to live in Portland I'd move back there. I can get a job anywhere in Portland and easily commute without a car. I feel pressure to stay here in California though. I miss Portland so much, weather and all :/
