Chan, the solution to job hunting is this:

WHORE YOURSELF OUT!!

Not literally, of course, but if you want a job, apply EVERYWHERE! Even if they aren't hiring. Fill out the application at the store if you can, also, make sure you give it directly to a manager if you can. Then, wait ONE DAY and call (ie if you apply monday, call on wednesday) and Make sure the manager got your application. If you handed it to the manager directly, see if he/she has looked at it yet. They will generally say, "Yes, I have..." or "No, not quite yet..." Either way, if you don't get an interview at that call, call back in ONE WEEK and talk to the manager again. By this point, the manager will either give you an interview or tell you to stop calling Either way, you know where you stand.

Following this procedure, I have never been more than one week without a job since I started working ahen I was 16.

Hope it helps, even if you were being sarcastic. If it doesn't help you, perhaps it will help someone out there in The Ville

*edit*
I have also realized another good thing to do, if you can, get a business card of the place. Its nice to have the manager's name and # handy.

Ah, and nice work on your stabbings and skill at imploding braincases.
