Jun. 25th, 2006 05:20 pmYou know what? This is what I wanna do. I wanna get my hair rebraided, and I want to go to that interview on Tuesday, and I want to let them know I can do the job without them staring at my hair. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to know that I cannot attend a job interview without having to take out my hair. What the hell does that have to do with my ability to do the job? 'Scuse me for having stupid hair. I'd shave it all off if I could. But you wouldn't like that, either.
It's just irritating. I have to take my hair out prematurely and deal with all the kinks for two days before braiding it back up, all because that person might not like my hair. I could have all the references in the world. They'd look at my head and think "Nah, that's too ethnic" or something.
I've said it before, I'll say it again: I need to work for myself. None of this changing strictly for the interview crap. I get this job, I'm braiding my hair, and whoever I'm working for can shove it where it hurts. And if I get a call for another interview the week I get back from vacation, my hair will stay braided, and they'll accept it.
And my creativity's gone down the hole again. Vacation cannot come fast enough. Vacation couldn't come fast enough if it started tomorrow.
Bad mood, can you tell? -_-
