Yes I am still alive and still unemployed. It's been 3 months since I lost my job. (Ok those first 2 lines sound like I was going to confession at church!)
In the last month I have had many ups and downs. I have sent out several resumes, but have not heard anything back. I have posted my resume on several job web sites, but the only bites I have gotten are from insurance companies-which aren't my cup of tea. And I have tried my hand at networking, but again nothing. The frustration and anxiety seem to increase with each passing day. Twelve weeks of unemployment down and 14 weeks to go. I hope I have something lined up by then!
Luckily I still have my part time job, which I love! But I was reading an article online that stated- if you have a part time job while collecting unemployment, they will recalculate your gross pay to reflect what you make at your part time job instead of what you made at your full time job. If this is true, I may be shooting myself in the foot down the road. Ahhhhhh the life of the unemployed,
Please keep posting! You're not alone!
