People on the Move

{picture}

As you all know, I have been looking for a job consistently. I have been looking through many, many different sites, like indeed, monster, mediabistro, careerbuilder,  anywhere that posts jobs.com lol..... everywhere!

But it is very difficult because I am not on entry level anymore and that is mostly where entry level positions are offered. Especially for people who have been in the business or industry for 15+ years and are looking for jobs or companies that go with their trade.

I found a great site CorporateAffiliations.com for people on the move and on this site, not only can you see in-depth details on executives, directors and their professional interactions, but they also offer the latest business news on them as well. So it is like you inside information on the people you are applying to jobs with and then more information on the company as well.

It is a great site for networking and looking for those higher up positions that you can't find just on a normal job site. Especially when looking for detailed information about your company that you are looking for, this is the place to look. They have all the information about even parent companies to your company as well, which is very helpful for you so you can add another company to your application list.

Looking for a job is a painful, stressful, and long process. If you're like us, people on the move, then definitely check out some more in depth websites when you're searching because these sites are made for people like you.

The Search for a Job

I've decided that I hate job searching more than anything else in the world. I hate a lot of things that are obnoxious, but I hate that the most. It tops my hatred for apartment shopping.

I am just not good at the being fake and selling yourself part. I am who I am, and I am good at whatever you put me to do, so why waste my time if you don't want me? I have had so many interviews and gone into the city and wasted my minutes on my cellphone, to have these people just waste my time! It is SO annoying --and it costs money!

Between the round trip train ticket to the city $24, any sort of subway $2 each way, parking at the train station $5.... and then doing that multiple times, and then to just go there for like 15-20 minutes?! UGH.

For instance, today I went to this magazine in the city. Nice place, nice office, cool company.... but what happened to the HR woman? Why was she a complete nasty bitch? I was literally there for 10 minutes at the MOST. AT THE MOST. I woke up at 6am to be in the city by 930, walked in the FREEZING cold just about 3 miles....for 10 MINUTES?!?!?!?!?

If the place wasn't as nice and I didn't actually want to work there I would have been like thats?!

I think I have applied to every job in sales/marketing/account management in my area and now I am getting down to the last dollars that I have and unemployment has yet to come in yet since their phone wait was insanely long.

So I really don't know what to think of everything.... I have some jobs I might be able to get off the books and then school starts next week! Ahhhhhh. And all I really want to do is just go on vacation........


Once unemployment kicks in I will feel a little bit better because at least then I can pay my rent.

“You have a special place in the world. All you have to do is find it. Do not give up on yourself, on the truths you have realized. Do not give in to those who would crush your dreams like nutshells. And never turn away from forever love.”

 — Ellen Hopkins. (quote found via Little Reminders of Love) 

i found this and needed to share it with you because it was good to find today. i have been so down, its so hard to get up in the morning.
im so upset that i am this down, and its the holidays and everyone else is happy. it makes me feel like i cant really talk to anyone because i dont want to bring them down too with my problems. and i hate that i dont have much positive things to write about here as well because i dont want to depress any of my readers either!! so im sorry if it is :(

there are 2 huge things in my life that are depressing me.  My job and the fact that its ending and something i saw about M.
I am sad to leave all my friends at work and have to start over again. I dont think there will be a choice and i will just have to leave. So the process of finding another one really sucks.

i found something out about M. i saw something that i probably shouldnt have and it is eating me up inside and i dont know if its true or not, but all evidence points to the fact that it is true..

i need your advice.

if you find something, that you are NOT supposed to be looking in and its bad, what do you do? do you confront them? do you forget you saw it? do you break up with them?

i dont know why this happens to me. why cant someone just like me?

please, advice. i need it bad.
