Second Job?

The other day, I ordered pizza for my family and on the way to pick it up , I stopped in to get cat food for the barn cats and my cats at home. I really like the lady who works at/ owns the pet store.  She has remembered me from the first time we talked and always greets me warmly when I come in to make purchases and visit. She is a member of Niagara Action for Animals and saves and rehomes cats.  She has given me a lot of advice in regards to the barn cats and has jokingly said she is going to install a bar in the back of her pet store for all the conversations and venting we've had.

When I stopped in the other night, as I was leaving, I asked her if she was looking to hire anyone, and when she does to keep me in mind. She told me (rather secretively) that she is moving her store and expanding. She is moving two doors down and is combining with a groomer and something else, and that at this time she will need to hire more people. She knows I milk cows and Im sure she could get me on day shifts so it doesnt interfere with my other job. It would also be only a 20 minute or so drive and I might get discounts on the store products which, would be great since I buy almost exclusively from this store. I am going to write up a resume detailing my experience with animals and hand it to her directly, I dont think she knows my name so this would be a way to ensure she knows its from me.

Im very excited to get a second job because I had one in the summer and the extra money was great. I made an extra 200 every two weeks, on top of my 300 every ten days from the barn. When I quit there I really felt the strain and I have been struggling to put money away since then. Now that my bf and I have started making plans to buy a house in December, having some extra cash to put towards school will be good. I also want to learn Kung Fu really bad, even though I have yet to find a close place to learn it, the question of if I can afford it will be easier answered.
