Jibby Just Can't Get His Break

I'm still sitting here wondering if the brewery is still in the process of selecting candidates, or if they have already filled the positions with better qualified individuals than myself. I have been calling HR every day, but the recruiter and manager seem to always be busy outside the office.
I can see how I wouldn't be as qualified as a lot of others applying for the Assistant Brewer, so I also applied as a store cashier just to get exposure to the brewery. I feel I should be qualified for that seeing as how that's pretty much all I've done outside the Navy where I preformed very notable procedures such as delivering a child. I'm not trying to brag, "but I'm kind of a big deal." Not really, but the prior statement sounds pretentious, so I thought I'd throw that Ron Burgundy quote out there.
So, there is no brewery job for me right now. What to do in the meantime? Well, I have a pretty unstable temp job at a company that scans hard copy materials and converts them to electronic copies and micro-fiche film. So far, it's sent me home for a total of 9 days without pay and only pays $9.00 an hour. I can't wait until I complete my degree. I really want to brew beer.
