Laid Off
Well, Gray Davis emposed budget cuts on California's education system, meaning two things for me:
1) There will be a supplemental fee in the middle of the semester for my tuition. (Thank God financial aid adjusted my award so it'll pay for itself.)
2) The San Diego Unified School District, where I work, had to lay off A LOT of its workers. First on the list: College Hourly Custodians. Bye bye 11.40 an hour, bye bye 1000+$ a month for rent and dues and everything else.
I can live two monthes without a job, but I want one. I don't want to go on unemployment because I don't want to get handed a check for doing absolutly nothing. Well, I'm going to make it through, but it's going to be hard.
Just wish me luck on job hunting and getting through all this. I WILL, but I could use all the encouragement I can get.
Oh yeah, AND VOTE REPUBLICAN!
