(11,065 posts)The guy that runs the bartending school where I went suggested doing these temp catering bartending gigs which are through agencies that hire all the staff for like weddings, banquets, charity events, etc. and their busy season is just starting and he's been swamped with calls from the agencies looking to hire bartenders right out of school to work for them. I need to buy a tuxedo uniform to do the jobs though. He said they're pretty inexpensive (for instance he said the pants are only like $15). I'd also need a while button down shirt, a black button down shirt, a black bowtie, black shoes and maybe a cummerbund or vest depending on the agency or maybe on the job. I've got black shoes but I don't know if they'd be appropriate... they're pretty old and scuffed up, but I hope no one will notice. I don't have any of the other stuff though.
Since I just spent almost all of my money to pay the court I'll have to find some way to get the money to buy the outfit for jobs, pay the phone bill before it gets shut off in a few days and put gas in the car. Oh, and I'll need to buy a new prescription for my meds in about a week and a half but I hope to be working by then. I'll really need to get to the food bank in a couple of days since I don't have much to eat left, but I just got a bag of food for Yoshi so he's good for chow for about a month. I think I'm pretty much ok with any other bills. I know already that my case worker can't do anything about this kind of stuff except for the food bank.
