Feb 2024 update

My resume have pink words in there is because of print shop issues. I tried to re-print it, after a dozen tries. After more than a month, nearly two months of effort to try mass producing my prefect resume hard copies, I decided to manually edit my resume with a pen, and explain the situation here. This way I can use the many copies of my first mass print attempt.

I got my Smart Serve a few days ago! I can work at restaurant now. Continue to work hard at getting a job.

If any employer want to see my Smart Serve certificate, I'll bring it with me to an interview at the restaurant. Please provide me with the name of your restaurant.

So far I've sent up to 40 resumes, one job fair, got two replies, and went to one interview so far.

The most bizarre thing can happen in interview sometimes. For example today, I have stated the hard work I did in the past 6 years, which is hard work every single day on my resume, and the person who's interviewing me asked me "what did you do the year before? did you stay at home?" sigh, I thought it's the most basic thing for employers to read resumes. Let me answer that question, which I did at the interview, I did work the year before, with my hard work I got a raise, I am communicating with the competitor's company to return products to competitors. How's that? 

Anyways, I'll continue to live everyday productively, as if I'm working, which I already am. Books says, to manifest finding a good job (GOOD job), you must treat finding work like work it self, wake up on time, dress up, be productive maybe 3 to 5 hours a day, contribute to work 8 hours a day. And it is what I'm doing now.

So far I'm making progress, I went on another pleasant interview, did a full meal prep first time in my life, with breakfast lunch and dinner. I know the meal prep has nothing to do with career, but it feels nice to try something for the first time in my life, and it saves my budget. I've experienced what it feels like to live in the city again. I logged into some of my accounts, read 2 chapters of a new book I'm starting. 

By the way, I just finished reading Dean Graziosi's Millionaire Success Habit. it is a feel good book, and it made me feel good. There are other feel good books, like The Secret, Donald Trump's Think Big and Kickass in Business and Life. After I finished with the one I'm reading now, I'm going to do Warren Buffet's biography. There is more than enough to read now, I feel content.

Recently I've started the 2-2-2 method, which is 2 hours of drawing, 2 hours of handing out resume, and 2 hours of reading each day.

Today, instead of emailing 5 to 10 resumes using 2 hours, I used the time went downtown to hand out resume in person. As usual, I talk a lot, trying to tell the person what's valuable on my resume, giving heads up that my resume don't have a lot of restaurant related information. The person immediately says if he's going to give out interviews he's going to contact us on Friday, without giving me a chance to communicate, judging me immediately. So I extreme my courteous back, as I must put myself in a good mood, instead of letting any stranger using the excuse to "possibly hire me" to give me attitude, judgement with an immediate "We would call if we decide to interview you" to stop me from further communication

Regarding the job I tried last week, I just realized I informed many people "hot and cold room is due to insufficient insulation", even though they didn't buy from me, some even is mean, but I spread the message, and now I know what insulation meant! But must move on, to find new jobs, I'm grateful for this experience.
