Well, here it is, almost March and I still haven't found a job. I do not want any one to feel sorry for me, but you cannot convince me that I don't have something to offer an employer! What in the heck is going on? Surely, somebody needs a pizza delivery driver!! OK, so I am starting to lose some of my positive outlook. I can contain it for a while longer, but my patience is waning more rapidly than I thought it would. I went to a job fair today and contacted a few prospective employers, but, as usual, all the employers there were more concerned with applicants that have some technical background. So much for Human Resources... So much for my degree. I am now thinking about going back to school to learn a little but about computers- the technical side. I contacted one school who has a program that will be largely covered by my GI Bill. I would only have to come up with a couple hundred dollars out of pocket to take the course. Of course, I have to have a job before I can consider any more schooling. I cannot afford to spend any money on anything outside the household and my immediate expenses. Once I find a job- any job- I should be able to budget a few bucks to get started. I am getting a little bit scared, and so is my wife. I feel like the our country is on the verge of total collapse. Never before in my life have I not been able to find work almost immediately. This is frightening. Tomorrow, I am going to pound the pavement to see if there are any employers that do not conduct interviews online. Maybe a restaurant??? I don't know. I do know that this sucks! I am young enough to do hard work, and I am mature enough to show up and actually work every day. I am racking my brain to come up with a method of earning a living. Thus far, my blogs haven't earned much (none, in fact). I thought I would try this blogging thing as a means to write. I enjoy writing, I enjoy debate. I simply need some traffic. Maybe people will show up, maybe they won't. Alt least I know that I am trying something new. We'll see.
