Job Search

Here's something that sucks: Looking for a job. It sucks, but not quite so bad now that I already have a job. I have an income, I don't desperately need an income, I can be honest. But when I didn't have a job, and I had rent to pay, and I was desperate, I mean, what was I suppossed to say. She's interviewing me for a call support position. My job would be to answer phones and give give customers one of the prepared responses provided. "This job will be very repetetive," she says. "Do you think this is something you'd like to do?" Really, how does one answer this question? Basically, what she's saying is "This job is very boring. You will be bored stupid. Do you think you'd enjoy being bored stupid 8 hours a day?" "Yes," is how you answer it, "Yes, I would very much enjoy sitting under neon lights eight hours a day answering the same questions over and over again from this set of responses you've given me after I just spent for years getting my Bachelors degree. I've always enjoyed doing things that are mind numbingly boring. And no, I'm not telling you this becuase I desperately need a job." No one seemed to believe me when I said this, I don't know why.
