I suppose it would be appropriate for me to announce that I did, in fact, accomplish my goal for the week. Yesterday, I went for a second interview for a bookseller position at Barnes & Noble and was hired on the spot. My training begins next Tuesday.
Yes, it only pays minimum wage. No, I don't need a bachelor's degree in English to perform the necessary tasks of operating a cash register and helping customers locate the latest installment of the Twilight series or whatever (I'm not very up-to-date on current bestsellers; I guess I'll be forced to remedy that soon.). But it's a job. With books. And I'm grateful.
