New Twist...New Plans

So my plans didn't go through. I've decided not to move to Vegas. Why? There is no way anybody can watch my 2 year old son. I thought everything was set, but I was wrong. I've learned that having a kid can somewhat change your entire plan and there's nothing more on this earth that means more to me then him. I was away from him for 7 days and I realized how much I need him by my side. No worries though, I guess I'll have to go to plan B. For the next 3 years, until my son is in kindergarten, I'll just be saving money up to move. I'll try to get out of the negative net worth stage and into the positive. I still have my sights on becoming a poker dealer, however instead of Vegas, I'll have to find a job at a local casino. I'm back to the drawing board and will have to revise my plans. Stay tuned...

1st Day of Work in Las Vegas

This entire time I've been here, I've been applying to jobs like crazy and going to as many temp agencies as possible. So far, I've done about 3 interviews and I started work part time at a kiosk in Carnival Court. After 8 hours of work, I am not going back. It was an easy job, but also it was FREEZING cold. Lots of drunk people walking the strip, buying stuff that looks like junk. Got off work at midnight and I'm beat. I have 2 more interviews coming up so hopefully I get hired with one of them. Off to bed!

Sorry For the Lack of Updates...

It's been a hectic week. I'm in the process of moving to Las Vegas and I'm off tomorrow! I'll be leaving early in the morning and should be arriving there around 10am. Then I continue on my job hunt. I already found an apartment, but before I can move in, they need proof of employment. I basically have until Feb 28 to find a job. I'll be hitting up all the temp agencies for now. Then I'll be actually searching for a dealer job. All my stuff is packed in my car and I'm ready to go! I'll be taking lots of pictures and I'll try to update daily if I'm not passed out from being tired. I'm on a strict budget so no gambling for me until I have found a job. And so my adventure begins...

Moving Real Soon...

I'm back from Las Vegas!! Didn't get that much sleep. My main objective was to find an apartment and search for a job. Well, I did find an apartment and I move in on March 1st. I went to a temp agency and did pretty well on my tests, however in order for them to get me a job, I need to be a Las Vegas resident with an address. And in order for me to move in my apartment, I need to have a letter of employment verification. This just makes the process of moving more complicated. I have until the 1st of March to figure it all out. I have a plan in mind and if all goes well, I'll be in Las Vegas pretty soon. Stay tuned!

Job And Apartment Hunt starts Thursday

Getting ready to plan a trip Thursday to Las Vegas to look for a job and place to live. Trying to go as cheap as possible for the hotel.. so far looks like $50 a night is about the best price I can find. I'll get an update over the weekend when I come back. Hopefully all goes well and I can find something!
