Job Search Rut

Now I feel like I'm getting into a rut. I'm trying to stay positive but as the days wear on it gets harder. And combining that with a tough economy doesn't brighten the picture. At this point, I think I will consider part-time jobs, temporary jobs, retail, anything to keep me open-minded. I also thought about taking some classes, but not sure which direction to go in. Perhaps an Excel, or another computer course would be helpful. I LOVE art but where's that going to get me as far as paying the bills. I love writing, but again, bills need to get paid!!

If nothing else, this time has provided me the chance to really think. Do some soul searching. Weed out non-interests. More clearly understand strong interests. Try to figure out how to combine my passions with a job, which would make the most sense, right?

Hi Pamela, I know how it feels to be in a rut. I hate it when I am like this. I hope you're able to find a job soon, and I am sure you will. When I wasn't working I felt like I was going insane with the same old same old, day in and day out.

Good luck.

And the search goes on...

I am currently job hunting! YUCK! It's tougher than I thought. I have faith though! Something will connect. It's been a great time to re-charge and figure out my interests, priorities etc...
