Finally after 8 long months of looking for work I finally got a job. I got an email this morning from the professor that runs the tutoring center saying that he doesn't know what my hours will be but I will be working in the tutoring center this semester. I have applied for that job every semester for the last 4.5 years and he has always turned me down but not this time. I am on cloud 9 right now because this means I might actually be able to afford to move in May if I can save all the money I get from this job.

I am going to start in about 3 weeks when the tutoring center officially opens, at least thats what I assume will happen. They are going to be still accepting applications for the next 2 weeks and then I will receive what my hours will be. This is a little bit different because I am on the clock for the entire time but I only work when people need help. If no one needs help I can study on my own or do other school related tasks as long as I stay in the center and don't leave(unless its to talk to a professor about homework). I am the only one that works during my hours so if 30 people need help then I have 30 people to help. Its first come first serve but thankfully the other math majors hang out in there so if I am swamped they will help me out.

That is great! I did tutoring and support in the computer center when I was in grad school. When everyone came in around a project due date, I was busy. When it was slow, I got lots of work done.
