And on this farm they were seeking a new employee - EIEIO
They made a phone call here and a phone call there
Here a call
There a call
Everywhere a call call
And then Old Parky called me too - EIEIO
I had my first job interview an hour ago! A month or so ago, I applied to Parky's Farm, and a few weeks ago I got a call saying that they were going to be conducting interviews to fill a few spots that had recently opened. My friends Joe and Hannah work there already, Charity and Katie also have interviews this week, and Paige and Sophie work at the riding center on the same piece of land. Finneytown students could control Parky's! Today the farm, tomorrow the world. Hannah would definitely be up for a little world domination, even if nobody else was.
If I get the position, I'll be doing one of three things (well, technically one of four things, but the fourth is a combo of the other three). There are three "posts" that employees rotate between: the play barn, the pony rides, and the petting zoo (they called it the "encounter pen" or something weird and somewhat ominous like that). If I was in the play barn, I would just make sure that everyone plays safe and nice. For pony rides, I would lead kids on pony rides. At the petting zoo/encounter pen, I would keep everything in line and answer questions about the animals. Pretty self-explanatory. The fourth responsibility is birthday party attendant. Birthday parties at Parky's are two-hour affairs that involve cake and ice cream, pony rides, time in the play barn, and time in the petting zoo/encounter pen. I'd also do things like cleaning up after animals, opening and closing the farm, and other tasks like that.
I hope I get the job; it sounds like it would be a good one for me. I'll find out early next week if I get hired or not.

Good luck! Is a job where you get paid, or is a volunteering thing? I'm pretty sure Paige just volunteers there.
Is it*
If I had gotten the job, it would have been an actual paying job. Unfortunately, I didn't get it. I'll probably apply to Ahlf-Price books ar Delhi Garden Center. I want to get a job this summer, but I really don't want to end up working at a restaurant of any sort. That would be too much interaction with people for my liking, and everyone says it sucks. I suppose it wouldn't be that bad to work at the Graeter's in Brentwood Plaza. I could walk there.
