Tyra Banks talk show/ job search

Tyra Banks talk show: It's summer time, I'm looking for a job, but there is also time to watch daytime tv. However, it's non-trashy shows. I was watching Tyra today, she was doing an ep about how 3 women want to be prostitutes at the Moonlite Bunny Ranch and they did an ep like this last season. What was interesting, was there was this part where I got kind of teary- eyed. I don't really cry when watching tv or movies. There is this 18 yr old girl Summer and she enters the ranch. After she has her first customer, she is crying afterwards and saying that she was thinking about her boyfriend the entire time. She didn't feel good about being a prostitute at all. She was a porn actress prior to this.

S says she wants to go to school because a lot of people her age are doing that. The audience applauds. Then Tyra talks to S's boyfriend Ryan and he says to S: "I don't want you to do this anymore. I want you to quit. You are so beautiful, smart and intelligent. There are so many other things that you can do." Then he goes to S and proposes marriage. I squealed with excitement. S says yes. T wishes them good luck. Cut to S's dad and he isn't smiling or applauding at all. Her dad is like her manager because S says she wanted to go into the sex industry whether her dad supported her or not, so the dad went along with it. Yeah, T did say it was creepy.

Job search: Today I went on my job search and first I went to Spherion, a staffing agency. It's in the Bell Tower, right beside City Centre. I went there last yr, and they hooked me up with a Stats Canada test, though I didn't get the required mark to work there. I went there this yr to drop off my resume. They moved from the ground floor to the 12th floor.

I dropped off my resume and the secretary Tina asked a few questions. She asked what wages I was expecting.

Me: Uh, $9/hr?
T: You should say $15/hr. Then it's negotiable. A lot of people who pick a low number, the boss does ask if they can pay lower like $7/hr.
Me: It's $8.40.
T: Yeah I know, strange as it may sound, people who pick a low wage, goes even lower.
Interesting. T flips a page over and sees that I learned a lot of Adobe Photoshop, Excel (from Nait).
T: There is a financial place that needs someone to type up mortgages and stuff like that.
Me ( in my head): Sounds mathematical, and I don't like it, nor am I good at it. But you never know until you try. If it doesn't work out, you can always quit.
Me: Yes. Does it involve math?
T: No.
Me: Good.

Then I emailed this woman at Spherion with my resume and she is to figure out what job to give me. I went to City Centre and dropped off more resumes there like at Club Monaco and Watch it! though both aren't exactly hiring at that location. I decided to be flexible and be able to work at West Ed. I then went to Xcetera and dropped my resume there. They sell accessories, but they are copying Ardene's now. Ardene's started selling clothes to increase sales, and now Xcetera is doing the same. Next would probably be Claire's and Icing by Claire's. Cut to Xcetera:

Woman: So how old are you?
Me: 22.
W: Good, I remember asking this 16 yr old girl what hrs she wanted and she said "Full time. But I have to go to school." Well then you can't work full time.
