Okay...
Since July 2013, I've been applying for jobs all over the place. I've probably sent around 100 applications to many branches of local businesses and restaurant chains, and have been ignored/declined every single time. So this morning, I scratched out a Craigslist ad on a school computer. Four hours later, I got a call from Steak n Shake requesting an interview.
I guess I should've done that all along lol
