Currently on another job search. Bleh. I really wish there were more retail options available:

 

No supermarkets are hiring

Target isn't hiring (Walmart isn't either but lol @ working there to begin with)

Best Buy just put up new positions but I've already been rejected twice by them

Basically every other retail place isn't hiring

 

I just want some money!  

Barnes N Noble.

We could do 1988 or 1998. Both seem interesting (1988 in particular).

1988 would be my preference. Lots of great movies came out that year.

Avoiding 2008. Trying to stop another Nolan win. I see through your games.

The end credits of Iron Man 3 don’t get enough love

- The reason McDonalds is where they are right now is not competition or a cycle, but because they got rid of their tepid CEO and old management, and brought new life in, who's done a banging job introducing a McCafe to rival Starbucks, the dollar menus, $1 drinks, modern and contemporary restaurants, a gourmet menu, (somewhat) better service, a good app and rewards deals, food delivery, and all day breakfast. They are also more transparent about their food and are making their items healthier. 

It's McCafe and the gourmet menu both came out of McDonald's Australia.  That's another thing that help's McDonald's.  It's approaching having two thirds of it's restaurants outside of the US and in overseas markets it works hard to cater to local tastes and tradition.

1988 had zero Nolan films.  So 1988.  plus I'll be able to catch up on a lot of older films.

I only have it a few times a year but I actually do like McDonalds food

It might be fun to do 2008 afterwards and see if we can collectively stop TDK from winning.

WALL-E might have the best chance to dethrone TDK.  It's probably my favorite of 2008

Fast food, restaurants, the college you go to could have job openings, and if you are 18 you could work for the city

@The Last AndyLL You should think of broadening your cruising experience outside of North America.

Try to see what else is out there other than retail, and food if you can help it. Lots of hidden jobs on LinkedIn, Indeed, and Monster. Don't go to Craigslist unless you're trying to be a dishwasher or in an amateur porno.

I haven't really bought anything recreational in the past two months. My mom I've spent about $40-50 at the movies, but that's it. I didn't even get any Criterions the other day!

If you know Han then yes he does

 

I don't mean cutting down on having fun. Like when people say "oh you should go out less", like wtf? That's what money is there for.

But for example if you buy drinks, you could buy cheaper drinks? If you go out for a meal you could go to a cheaper restaurant? etc.

 

What do you spend your money on when you are living with your parents?

Blu-Rays, theater trips, and tech every now and then. I'd like a new computer, so that's what's fueling this search
