Today I just want to whine a bit........
Job hunting is for the birds. Let me tell you! This is not anything I would recommend for the faint at heart! I've put in so many applications and I'm not even getting calls. It's enough to seriously depress someone!
Most recently I applied for to a company that literally is the counterpart to the job that I have been doing for the last however many years. In a normal situation, I would be a shoe in for the job. I met every qualification. I had experience! I filled everything out and hit the submit button. I was actually a bit hopeful! For 16 minutes. And then my hope was smashed to smithereens. You see, it took them only 16 minutes to send me a reject letter!
Seriously, this is terrible. I would feel utterly despondent except that I know that my ex-cowokers (with the exception of two that got jobs literally before we had even worked out last day at our job) are having the same issue. So I know it's not me! But dang if it doesn't feel horrible.
Meanwhile, my arthritis is crankin'! Yikes it aches! But I'm pushing through and not letting it get to me! It's only 11 AM and I already have my indoor exercise done, the outdoor exercise completed and our grocery shopping done and it's all put away. Go me! Now to commence with the job hunt!
