  • Bummer


    I'm disappointed.  I allowed myself to have high hopes that I would be receiving an offer of at least the next step in the interview process with the Financial Services company.  I still think I'd be good in that position.  But I received a letter today informing me that I was not selected.


    I also had a letter from the State of Colorado, but it merely restated some of the information from the last letter I received regarding my rights and responsibilities as an unemployed person.  I still have no check. 


    And it's 11 degrees outside.


    I'm going to stay home and finish my NaNo book today.  (I'm starting now from the dizzying height of 47,409 words)


    This looking for a job thing - it can be brutal.  And I can't help wondering what it is that I'm missing here.  I have a degree.  I'm hardworking and smart and I get along with my fellow humans pretty well most of the time...


    I don't want anyone to hire me because they feel sorry for me.  I want to be hired because the person on the other side of that desk believes in my competence and ability to be an asset to the organization.  But if I can't have that, I'd just like a job please.

  • Best of  luck to you, my Dear. I am sure something will open up sooner or later...

  • I'm wondering if this time of year is harder for job seekers.  So many people begin to be preoccupied with the holidays.  I'll put in a good word for you with the Big Man......oh.....and with Santa, too. 

  • Opps.....didn't mean to put a devil in there next to the Big Man an Santa.  I think that might have gotten me on the naughty list.

  • Wondering if you have thought about being a department store Santa? Seriously, department store should be needing some seasonal help. I know this is temp. but a buck is a buck
