Well, it's now May 16th and I still have not been able to find a job. What in the world is going on? I have many years of experience in management and I have a BA in Psychology and still no bites. It makes you wonder what's in store for our children. There are hundreds of people with college degrees competing for the same positions a High School graduate would normally do. I've witnessed this and now I feel "I too" must lower my standards in the workforce in order to get a job. My unemployment benefits will run out next month and I have to find out about extending those benefits. However, you can only extend them for another 13 weeks instead of the 26 weeks originally argued in Congress (Thank you President Bush!) Well, I guess it's better than nothing right?
I kid to my husband that soon enough I'll have to turn to the oldest profession known to mankind and I should just fly to Nevada so I can do it legally. LOL... but seriously every now and then my mind just spins out of control and I wonder what in the world are we going to do. With the recession and foreclosures we're facing, working at McDonald's doesn't sound so bad right about now. I've often thought to myself, "so much money for a BA and for what"? So much money being spend just to keep your home and for what? So much for the American Dream. Renters are actually living the dream right now. No worries on property taxes, school taxes, town & village taxes, high mortgage payments, etc...
Well I guess that's enough ranting and raving. It's raining today so I took the time out to start rolling my change to deposit it into the bank tomorrow. I hate rainy days, it just makes me even more depressed.
