i just got back from the interview at the motel.. i wouldn'tve actually considered it an actual "interview" persay. i walked into the motel, told her i was there for an interview, she told me to go to an area and we'd talk there. i waited about 5-10 minutes while she checked people in and she came over to me and handed me some papers and told me to fill them out. i filled them out and told her i was done, then walked and handed them to her. the form referred to me as the "employee" so i'm not sure if that's a sign i got the job and they just needed to see my resume and if i could be present at an "interview" or maybe it was so they could see what kind of person i was who entered in the resume. in the back of my mind, i feel like this might give them an opportunity to discriminate against me because i use a cane? maybe i'm just being paranoid. while i was waiting for her and while she was checking people in, i thought about how i should've just walked without the cane just for this "interview" and that way they couldn't know how disabled i was to discriminate against me but then i heard some guest say the headboard fell off in their room.. so i'm not exactly sure this is the nicest motel- shit happens though.. everything falls apart all the time but i don't really think the nicest motels have this going on there. who knows? it might be a nice place. i only got to sit at the tables at the little cafe they have there to wait for the lady to hand me some papers i filled out and signed. after i filled them out, i walked to hand them to her and she held the paper out reading it.. i'm not sure if she was doing that because she couldn't read my handwriting (although fredrick just complimented me on my handwriting the other week) or if she had problems with her eyes- so she had to hold it away from her to read it, i'm not really sure why she did that but she never told me she couldn't read it- so i shouldn't really think too much into this. she told me they'd contact me about the "next steps".. so i'm kinda thinking that all they needed was a resume and to see if someone would actually show up. although- i was just trying to remember back and it feels like i've filled out papers to work at a motel before where they referred to me as the "employee" on the form but i think that was the hotel where they tried to stick me in a different position than what i applied for and it turned out to be more physical work than what i applied for- so i quit (also because the guy training me in was some old guy gossiping about he didn't know how the supervisor expected him to train me because "look at her {me}!" it didn't strike me as a very welcoming environment to be employed at). although some other lady who worked there said they needed help during the weekends at the front desk and they didn't understand why the supervisor stuck me in the breakfast duty when that wasn't what i interviewed for. i probably should've stuck it out and told the supervisor about the guy who trained me in and how he was talking about me to the other workers at the front desk but i thought maybe they'd ignore it outta senority because i'm pretty sure the guy told me he had worked that job for a long time. that's one thing my psychologist complimented me on today- i ACTUALLY try to do jobs before assuming i can't do them without even trying first. don't get me wrong- i know my limits and i highly doubt they'd even give me a shot at working this job if they thought i couldn't handle it.
oh yeah.. i forgot to mention that i asked zen about calling some insurance company in massachusetts to make sure i could get insurance and he told me we already did that a while ago and they said i'm eligible for their insurance- i just needed to get an address in massachusetts. so that takes away a reason why i wouldn't be able to move there. the only thing i think i need is housing, which the ics workers are trying to assist me with.
