Hello again to all my faithful fans out there! Yes it has been too long since I have written or ranted about anything in particular, but that is not what the topic title is about....
Let me refresh your memory a little bit, take a walk down memory lane with me won't you.... it was December 1, 2008 and I was just informed that as of close of business that day my services as well as the rest of the office staff would no longer be necessary. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year sucker!
Okay on to present day. Here I sit once again as I have since that fateful day that my life took a downward spiral sending out resume after resume, filling out online applications and trying to find that door that I can just squeeze in to get myself on the right path to getting back on my feet in the workforce. Oh did I mention that now what makes this even better is that I have finally, after 18 years of pissing around, graduated with a bachelors degree! Woot! Go me! Or does that make it worse? Here I sit almost 36 with degree and still can't find a job. What the hell has happended to this State? So now I am calling on all my working friends to maybe put my resume at the top of the pile at their work for me, just in case I happen to have something that the hiring people just can't live without. I hate to beg and ask favors of friends but nowadays its not what you know its who....hopefully I know some good people!
All I need is the chance and am I doing everything in my power to make it happen, its just depressing to think that there are so many others out there like me who go through this everyday as well. Are you out there my friends? Maybe we should start a club, but who among us can afford the membership dues? Is it time to start looking out of state for work and uproot the family? Is the State and Federal government ever going to do anything to help us or are we just a sinking ship?
Anyway, enough of my pissing and moaning about the state of this State....its good to be back to my old musings and maybe, just maybe when I post again I will have some better news on the horizon. If not, at least I can try to give you a rant on something that has pissed me off that day!
Until then, be safe and God bless you all!

Post your resume on FB. More people will probably see it that Monster or Career Builders at this point. (block you personal info of course.)
ReplyDeleteJust to get you going on a rant -
GAS - UP
MILK - UP
GROCERY - UP
everything under the sun up except the incomes of the people that are buying the stuff. Move out of state? Can't afford it. Some states are as bad as Michigan, and we have a beautiful state just not the jobs any longer to even support the die hards that are still here. Maybe move to Canada? But would that help?
I like the possible rant on the price of everything going up, of course so many people rant on that one everyday. Canada eh? There are days were becoming and ex-pat sounds like a plan, but for me I would rather hit Belize!
