I have a job interview on Friday. Well technically speaking it's not a job interview but what it is, is that someone who I've contacted about a job and then contacted me in response suggested I go to a photo shoot that will be happening at a local church to see just what I will be doing.
See I applied for a job at Ollan Mills Photography Studio. They do church directories. I will be a traveling photographer that will essentially be going from Church to Church across New England. (The Traveling Karr will really be getting some miles on him.)
Anyway, the guy I've been talking to about it says that Georgia is way out of his area but if I want I can go to this church on Friday and meet the photographer and the area manager. (Which I'm guessing he's already talked to the area manager and said "Make sure this chick isn't nuts would ya?")
Sorry to disappoint you sir! I may be nuts but I know how to behave myself most of the time :)
Anyway I'm really excited. I know I've been trying to open up my own business but this kind of experience will be hard to get anywhere else and it's like it just fell in my lap. Oh, also know the priest who is over the church. Maybe Father Jerry will put in a good word for me :)
Anyway the other thing that's kind of neat is that I've been really looking hard for Real Estate in the Aiken SC area. The Traveling Karr hasn't been getting a whole lot of miles to there yet though... But we'll definitely send the pictures of the houses we're going to see this weekend. We'll need help deciding :)
And yes I know Job interview in New England and still house hunting... But I figure if I look for a fixer upper... Or some land... I can be making payments on it while I'm traveling across New England and slowly working my way into putting something on it. I can even rent it out in the meantime. Let it pay for itself for a while.
So anyway since everyone likes Karr more than me ;) Here he is.
Greetings Minions,
I've been to the desert on a horse with no name! That song is stuck in my CPU. Anyway, I've been doing a little traveling in the local area this week and I have something that must be addressed. That is the fact that if you give a realtor a budget why is it that everything they send is right dead on that budget. Can they not send something that is much cheaper that you may not have thought about?
If Maji did not have the good sense to do some research of her own she may have never found a few of the houses that we will be going to look at. Realtors also have a way of refusing to think outside the box. One must say "No I want to see that one!" Before they will bend to your wishes. However, you are the one paying for it. Don't be afraid to tell a realtor you would really rather see another house. Don't be bullied into something you don't want.
So with that I bid farewell for now. More this weekend.
Karr
Admit it. You do like him more than me :)
