Sometimes I wrap myself up in a cocoon here in the huge bed in my room that is really two beds. And I think of lots of random things and sometimes cabbages and kings are involved, but mostly it is things like:
where do I look next for that elusive job that is out there somewhere?
Do I get up and do my homework or continue to enjoy myself here in dreamland?
If I just go tell the guys in the advising office, or the janitorial staff, or that bookstore, that I am desperate and emotionally drained, will they take pity and hire me?
Where the heck did I put that other package of cold medicine?
How should I know what the square root of (x-2) + 4853 is?
How do all you people sound so dang confident when you say, "I'll just find a couple jobs."?
How do you sleep at night when no one wants to hire you even in the food industry?
What on earth am I doing here on earth in general?
So if anybody has answers to some of those questions, I'll be here sneezing and coughing and slugging through a pile of job applications. Feel free to offer any knowledge. Seriously.

ReplyDeleteI got three job interviews out of it.
Ok, you wanted advice and it is my sisterly duty to oblige you.
ReplyDeleteQuestion #1: Hmmm that is a hard one. See Previous comment.
Question #2: That depends on how much homework you have, if you can be comfortable in dreamland and not have a bad procrastinator feeling than you are probably ok.
Question #3: That isn't such a bad idea. When I finally got my job I told him how long I had been out of work and how much I needed it. Don't be ashamed, go ahead and beg.
Question #4: I really can't help you there, but did you check the kitchen by the sink?
Question #5: Calculator
Question #6: They are inexperienced.
Question #7: close your eyes and wait a while.
Question #8: Gaining your eternal salvation. No big deal. ;)
Love you!
