If anyone here lives in the three cities I put in the title and might be interested in completing a secret shopping project in your area, you'd really help me out by leaving a comment here with your first name - and if you use a different email for SA, then the email you'd use for work related stuff. You do need a smartphone so you can download the secret shopper app. This project pays between $100 and $140.
Thanks for helping me out if you're interested.

I had my second interview today for the admin asst job, and then also had a personality assessment. I asked when they plan to make a decision .... AUGUST!!! This position has been advertised for at least a month! Seriously, if people need a job, they aren't looking for one to maybe start two months later.
I gave the staffing agency another call today to keep my name fresh. Something has to give here soon.

Last night at the call center I was asked to work the next two Sundays - I jumped at the chance. That just means 28 hours for the next two weeks instead of 24. I'll take it though, especially considering that a full time job seems to be taking it's sweet ol' time coming along!!

I'm almost halfway to my next redemption on Bubblews. It's going much much faster this round.

I'm having trouble depositing my final paycheck from the school and the first check from the call center. I tried using my phone apps for both Cap One and Bofa, but neither one would accept them. They are way too long for a good picture. I checked to see if there are any ATMs here for either bank ... Nope. I'm really not sure how else to deposit the checks, other than opening yet another bank account. I really don't want to do that. Would love ideas! (This is going to be an ongoing problem with the call center checks. Previously I had my school checks direct deposited, but for whatever reason they give a paper one for the last one.)

You might want to change banks now that you are in NE, those banks will not have local branches anywhere in the state I'm pretty sure. Wells Fargo might be another national option.

I don't want to post my email address, though. Can you comment and I'll reply to that via email?

I am in the same boat, kind of. I lost my 25+ year job thanks to my boss being either an @$$hat or a cheap@$$. :/ I interviewed for one job on 6/9, had 2nd interview 6/25 and have a "test" next week. @@ Another job I interviewed for on 6/17, had a 2nd interview on 6/25 (yes I had two separate ones on that date) and the owner is still in the process of interviewing other people. @@ This is such B S! They can keep me hanging but IF I were to do that to them....

Thanks, Laura. I hope so for both of us as well.

---@Marie - It's tiring alright. Can't say it's awesome though. It would help if the quotas they give were at all possible to actually meet. In 3 weeks I have not met one quota. Not for lack of trying either.
