In the past couple months that I have been on this forum, I was financially in the crapper and couldnt afford anything. I have been applying for about 7 months and persistance has paid off and now I am a server at a mexican resturant.
I start today at 5pm
Now I am about to go berm mining. My next issue is a car.

That's great news James! I've said before, there is always work if you look hard enough. It may not be what you want but it should help keep the wolves away from the door till something better comes along

Good! I am glad for you. This economy has really taken its toll on us. Your persistence paid off. Now go out and show em how serving in a mexician restaurant should be done. Keep those tips rollin in. I'd say that your mexican food is closer to the real thing than we get around here.
I'll bet the Mexican food down that way is the real deal. Do they deliver? We will pray that you will find the car you need.

Good luck, James! I'm just up the road in Kingsville.
PM me with the name of the restaurant and I will zip over for some food and if you are the server I will leave a decent tip. I live just north of Brownsville.

Congratulations. You do have your GED don't you? More and more places won't hire anyone without one! If you don't have it get it !!!!
Maybe some of the guys here who live in your area could put out some feelers for jobs in your area that could lead to a career.
James Thats GREAT news!!!!! Now you can SAVE money for your car.
Good Luck.
+1 on Nascarkent!
James congratulations! I absolutely guarntee that if you become the best server that restaurant has ever seen, you'll be able to save for that car! Keep that goal clearly in mind and you won't bet tempted to spend you hard-earned on other things.
Proud of you James. We're pulling for you!
Regards,

good job james. did ya have to show a green card
man who pees uphill gets feet wet with experience
Thanks for your support guys.
I worked yesterday from 5 to 9 plus another hour to clean up, and even though it was training I made $22 in tips and the hourly pay is $2.50 so I guess tips is the only way I'll make money.
Also my mistake it isn't a Mexican resturant it's a BBQ place where the owners family is there working and talking to customers.
I'm working same shift today.

Also I tried to go to the range yesterday and since it's been raining lately it's flooded and it's 4mi long, and my dads truck needs a new starter.

Excellent, James. Do the best you can at work. Education is most important, though. If, however, you are like the rest of us, your troubles are just beginning. This only solves the immediate issues!

There is no 'right' that requires me to work for you or you to work for me!
Good for you !! Do your best so you can keep the job and good luck on the mining/car objectives.
