my employers have decided to call it quits while they can still afford to pay us our last week. i've got one line out already, but it requires more of a commute than i'm comfortable with, especially with being sans driver's license. i could probably still beg applebee's for a job and because it's significantly closer i'd accept less, but i still need to roll the dice on that.

THere's a hell of a lot of it going around. If you can get Applebee's for now, do.

i may be able to reach a concession with the farther away place (lanie's cafe), but i couldn't do it for anything less than fifteen an hour. applebee's is an order of magnitude closer, but won't be able to pay me as much, which i'm okay with. something will work itself out, it always does.I wasn't born with enough middle fingers.

aahz: i've worked for lanie's before, and i live far enough away for things to be problematic. i also don't have a driver's license at the moment so my wife would have to cart me back and forth for a few weeks as i'm at the final stages of solving that particular problem. the position that's open there is 4pm-12am, and my son goes to bed around eight, and can't leave him alone in the house while she travels half an hour or so one way to pick me up.
applebee's is ten minutes away, so consider what twenty minutes roundtrip versus an hour is worth.I wasn't born with enough middle fingers.

Sad to hear, and good luck on negotiating acceptable terms.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

Well, at least you've got thumbs. They can be used to obtain transportation in cases of dire need.
