Well, I can't log into my Amazon Payments account for some reason, apparently the password i've been using for the last 3 years is incorrect :/ I've heard way too much about things like this happening to other Turkers. Hopefully I can get this figured out.
Do you have their "call back" phone number?

Retail almost never hires for full time anymore. They get more scheduling flexibility by only hiring part timers and they don't have to spend money on offering full benefits or anything. They'll still ask what you're interested in though, to gauge interest, but full time status is usually only given to people that have already been working there for a while.
Rude

I probably should have known that

Medicating, yoga, vitamin D, UV lamps, and meditation have helped me a ton with SAD. Usually only gets me in the winter, though. Also picking seasonal things to be excited about (gourd soups in fall, fires in winter etc)

I feel all you seasonal D's though. Much love to you.
I"m thinking that I might tan again. I wasn't going to, but after this past couple of days I might need to.

I hate you have to deal with this! I have for years and am always surprised by a) how much I HATE winter and b) how many people enjoy this time of year. Been taking meds plus FMLA for a few years now because when it snows I become almost nonfunctional with fear at times. I have woken up in the middle of May in my bed having a panic attack thinking about winter.
Also, I realized my depression is worse in early December. I blamed it on the holidays. But, what I found out is even though late December is the shortest day of the year sometime around Dec 8-12 is when the earliest sunset is, but the sunrise is also a tad earlier. The latest sunrise is in early-mid January if I remember correctly. So by the time the official start of winter is here we have already had our earliest sunset and are heading back the correct direction on that side of things :)

Lunch time! Pizza hut still lives in these parts! bbl

One of my professors suggested tanning! That is not an option for me. I am practically transparent and skin cancer runs in the family lol, but hey, it seems to work!

I think the trick is to hold onto hope and keep trying things till something sticks.

I'm terrified of tanning! I have a lot of small moles on my body that I just cover with tanning stickers.
I look like a cheetah, lol.


You guys the sun is out!! But I'm not even at $5 yet lol

no one hires FT anymore. It took me years to get a FT job in my organization, and right now I manage/schedule a bunch of part timers, and its a pain in the dick. you get good ones, get em trained, can depend on them, and then get get a FT job and leave. So infuriating. Benefits cost so much no one wants to put that out. We are trying to trade 4 PT positions for 2 FT, but they're dragging their feet. I am SO tired of the hiring process we have to go through every single time. They're wasting so much money with the people that have to interview, hire and train constantly...

It's almost like the idea that you can retain workers by offering them reliable work and pay is an alien concept. Who would have ever thought? :rolleyes:
