At the end of the latest round of job searching (those ones at the end aren't submitted yet) I'll have applied 43 places for 59 positions with 5 interviews and still no job.

This has to be some kind of record.

**UPDATE: WE HAVE A WINNER! Thank you, Express Personnel Services of North Mankato, MN!!! They had a job for me: factory work at MRCI, Monday-Friday, 8.50/hr. I start Wednesday!

But it gets BETTER: the place is literally a ten minute walk from my apartment- and MRCI needs people through AUGUST! So if I work my butt off and really impress them (and for a job this good that pays this much this close to where I live, you better believe I'm gonna) I could conceivably (cross fingers, everyone!) have a job for the rest of the summer!
