Eh, I agree. I think everyone is just trying to do the best they can with the current situation.

Cicero. I appreciate your kind words and so sharing your story I can understand and appreciate the place you find yourself in.
I try not to cry and I do not usually! I hate to cry and am very stoic. I just got choked up because like you said when you are used to getting a job after an interview and don't , time after time, it is a let down in a big big BIG way. So I had a weak moment. I am busy planning my garden and taking care of my mom. Also I am reassessing too. Good luck to the both of us aye? |

lol no I don't think you are calling me a wuss. I am actually when it comes to smashing spiders and stinging bees though
Yes, 200! interviewees. I wonder how many applicants there were. I have a letter given to us displaced workers by the Governor that mandates other state agencies give us an interview if we qualify for the job. I am not sure how now I am thinking it is a good idea any more. I don't know if I get an interview because it was mandated or if they would have called me anyway. I am tempted next time not to use that resource just to see. It doesn't help with getting hired. I wish there was a twist someone's arm clause in there. :P ((hugs you back )) |

Ok this is what you do sky...Just walk in, find an empty cubicle, with a computer, and phone. Then proceed to start working!! lol!!
I read a story a long time ago where an investigative reporter did that at a large company he did not name. When times get tough I think of that, and laugh my butt off...Because in his case, it worked... lol! ( I wish I could find that article as it was hilarious) Good luck to you. And I am still trying to send good energy your way.

200 interviews per position? What a ridiculous waste of resources. they need to employ better HR people

Around here snow-mobilers support tearing down fences, wrecking ski trails, growing childhood obesity, and giving aid and comfort to enemies of the United States through stupid use of fossil fuels... Did I miss anything?
