Still no luck.........

We'll so far I'm still not having any luck in the job department. I was so close to having a job but everybody who applied, including me, wanted 1st shift. So the guy who hires says it will take longer to get on if you want 1st shift and quicker if you get on 2nd because barely anybody has applied for 2nd. The thing that makes me mad is that everytime the guy called he kept talking about putting me on 2nd and I have told him every single time that I wanted 1st. The last time he called me he started talking 2nd shift and I told him twice before that, that I wanted 1st shift and only 1st. There is no way I'm taking 2nd shift because its from 3:30pm-2am and I am not trying to go to work in the afternoon and get off in the early morning. I thought about it for a while and I thought "how would I be able to go out or do things if I'm working this time"? And "it will be impossible to be able to go to school working this time"? So I couldn't do it. I'm feel like it is hard to get a 1st shift job. That's all I want. I can go to work in the morning and get off in the afternoon and when I'm ready I can go to school at night. I just hope things work out. I have been unemployed officially for 3 months now and I am getting very tired of not having a job. I at least applied to 5 different jobs yesterday. So I see it as, the more I apply to, the chance I'll have at getting hired somewhere. I'm definately trying to keep the faith.

I know this may sound picky but I have a criteria of what job I want. And if the job doesn't meet the criteria then I don't apply to it. Here's my criteria:
1.) Has to 1st shift/day job
2.) Has to be 8 hours
3.) Has to be Monday-Friday
4.) Can't get off no later than 5pm
So basically if I can't find a job that meets my criteria than I don't want the job, but I would work weekends even though #3 says different but I would only want to work a couple of hours and not 8. Maybe once I can get a full time job I'll think about getting a part time job during the weekend. But it will be a long time before I decide that. The only thing I'm thinking about now is getting a full time job and hopefully my wait and search will officially be over soon.
