Re: Being Unemployed is miserable

No not yet! I put out as many feelers as I could, but haven't heard anything.
My friends have all been joking that I'm going to drive myself crazy because I'm the kind of person that needs to know what they're doing at all times!!!

I have to laugh because what else can I do right?!

What? No DIY projects to do???? Glad to hear boredom is your biggest problem! Wanna work for me for a week? I need a vacation so bad, but I am saving all my time for my HM and a few pool days in the summer!

I wouldn't say that boredom is my biggest problem... Figuring out how I'm going to pay the DJ and the photographer and my other vendors when I'm unemployed and getting married in 136 days probably is my biggest problem...

I totally know what you mean about not knowing what's going to happen and being bored - I'm the same way and unless I have enough to do, I go crazy and start inventing projects for myself! But don't worry, you're going to find a great new job very soon!! Hang in there

In the meantime you have a good excuse to get to 1,000 posts!

Awww don't worry! I know EXACTLY how u feel! I had a fam emergency and was forced into a 'leave of absence' by my med school, and it took me 3 months to get a job! That won't happen to you... it's just that I had to do a lot of 'figuring out'. Anyways, I haaaaaaaaaaaaaated it, but I start my job in 2 weeks and now I get to go shopping!!! Things will work out and you'll look back at this and be better off than u were before!

Re: Being Unemployed is miserable

I know how you feel I left my job in february(for many reasons) under the impression that I had another job to go to and then get strung along for 2 months to find out that HR is not approving the position. So now I am still unemployed and going out of my mind! My field is so specific I hope you have better luck than I have!
