Job Interview Woes

I have a job interview today. Nothing major, just a little part time gig while I'm in school.

And the very nice lady is asking for my resumé and references. I have a resumé. It's not great, but it's mine. But I don't have an references. I've only ever had 4 jobs, right, so there's not a huge pool to draw from anyways.

The boss at my first job died last year, and I was only a summer student at my second job. My third job fired me and then went out of business and my fourth/last/most recent job has a company policy of not giving out references to anyone (those jerks).

So like. What am I supposed to do with that?

And it's really hurting my chances at getting hired anywhere because I don't have anyone who will jump up and say 'yeah, that Leen, she's really great'. And I AM really great. Damn everything.

Luckily I have one character reference who was also one of my volunteer coordinators from like, 75 million different things back in the day who has known me basically since I was born. So she's always good for a reference. But I feel like bringing in one reference is not very helpful to my chances. It looks like I'm stacking the deck.

*whine whine*

I'll let you know how it goes.
