The Vent - Part 2

[Sprailenes 47]

On a lighter note, can we talk about the fact that I am stressing over the fact that my AP situation will likely not allow me to visit my hairdresser and get my hair highlighted for the entire summer? HAHA!

My fiance will have to walk around with a new bride and her major roots! I hate having to source out a new hairdresser, like seriously, how do you know they are not good, until they have ##### up your hair!!!!! I already tried a few places in PA close to where we will be living, and lets just say that a year later, i'm still trying to grow out the mess!!!!

Can you tell where my priorities are? lol!

You need to choose your hairdresser like you'd choose a babysitter. Seriously walk in and talk to them and get to know your stylist.

Moving to Philly, my friend is a stylist in the city at a top notch salon, I'll ask her for some names for you. It's all about finding someone you're comfortable with and shopping around.

Hey Nevada do they do waxing at your friend's salon? I've yet to find a good wax place that's not too expensive either. In Oakville it was 40 bucks for the type of wax named after a south american country

I will ask her.

I was about to ask what type of waxing you needed because if it was brow I was going to suggest threading. But then I noticed the country part.

Oh my gawd! I have been tempted to do that kind of waxing but I am so afraid of the pain!

Actually I have heard nothing but great things about this place:

Yeah the first time KILLS like a mofo but really after that you get used to it, it's so fast you barely feel a thing. Plus it lasts like 6 weeks so I like it mucho!!

Do you like scream out loud? I am so afraid I'll cry or yelp.

It would be one of these situations..

"NO WAIT.... k... I'm ready... NO NO WAIT! k.... k do it now... NO NO! DON'T! WAIT!..."

I'd probably end up chickening out and walking out with the wax still stuck on, that's how pathetic I'd be!

LOL No but I'll admit I flinch every time.... and tears come to my eyes! It sounds like torture, I don't really know why I do it to myself

[Sprailenes 47]

Because its probably so worth it. I tried using the bikini cream once... never again.

We need a girly thread to discuss these things.

You can visit me in Michigan and visit my hairdresser!!! I'm EXTREMELY picky when it comes to allowing people to touch my hair. LOL I got lucky when I moved here and found mine - first try!

Maybe you are trying too hard. Next cup just nonchalantly rolllllll up the rim.

Do you know what annoys me??

People who CALL to ask if we're hiring. If you can't get off your lazy a$$ to come in and speak with someone then you aren't able to get up in the morning and come to work.

I just asked someone what was stopping them from coming in and filling out an application and she said: "Well I don't want to come all the way there if you're not hiring"

It's called EFFORT, employers like to see it. No, we're not hiring. Bye. Seriously.

I hear ya, even worse is the ones that come in all in tatters, and just kind of fling their resume at you then leave..no chance to ask them a question. Their resume's go right in the garbage.

My vent for the day. I had that terrible cold before...apparently my sinus' haven't cleared, and now I have fluid behind my ear which is making me very dizzy. Had to call out for the second day today because I have been walking into walls and such. I hate being sick! Hopefully the stuff they gave me helps get my sinus' better soon, I'm going to have to go back into work tomorrow regardless of how I am feeling.

You old fashioned gal you

I just notice it seems to be the norm with so many people... whatever happened to getting dressed up and going out and actually applying?

I have noticed people just come in with their street clothes too and ask for an application. This tells me a lot about that person.

It also bothers me when someone wants an application and then asks for a pen. You are going out and applying for a job... BRING A PEN!

First impressions matter, especially when looking for a job.

I have put X's on so many applications because of the way people look when they come in or if they ask for a pen.

awww I kind of feel sorry for them.

I assume since they are coming in and filling out an application, that they are young and are not applying for a job in the corporate office.

I can understand why they would call first, jobs are scarce right now and since we can assume they are probably unemployed, money is probably tight - bus fares etc cost money and because jobs are so tight they probably can't afford to go to every place they might want to apply.

The pen thing, the street clothes, those are things they will learn as they go along - I hope you say something to them when they are there
