Hi, Jen!

I don't think I can help you get a job [at least, not any better than the people who've already posted sites], and I'm too far away to help you with not being alone, but here's what I want you to do.

First, put your left hand on your right bicep.
Now put your right hand on your left bicep.
Now squeeze.
That's a cyber-hug.

I'm in a pretty dead-end job myself, surrounded by people who'd flip out completely if they knew half of who I am. And I just heard from a colleague that there's basically nowhere to advance to. Even if I went back to school, the company only recruits from certain colleges, and the ones around here ain't the ones from which they recruit. And, as you know, the job market sucks royally.

Which isn't to say that any of this is going to help you feel better or get a job, but maybe it will tell you that I have some understanding of how you feel, and sympathize.

Meanwhile, I can only suggest you do what I'm doing, which is discreetly looking for another job while reminding myself that at least I'm employed...

Blessings, and good luck!

Doesn't ANYONE care? :( :( *cry*

Fair Tigerjen, as thou doth see many do care, as doth I, the Dragon Tamer. I know of thy plight. I hath sent thee a PM, as I doth not wish to discuss such matters upon a thread. If interested in what I hath to say please PM me or email me. :rose: :rose: :rose: :rose:
 
Hi Jen,

Know what it's like to be in a shit job, and the higher up's just don't care. being out here in the northwest, not much i can do to help with jobs, but feel free to pm me if you need to vent.

just hang in there!!!:)
 
Jen, I don't mean to sound unkind, but really there's only person who can help you........ and that's you.

Complaining and being negative about your situation won't change it all, but may worsen it.

If you go to an interview with this veil of negativity about you, it will show, and you won't interview as well.

Look for real ways to change things, and make it happen. Sometimes what we're looking for is right under our nose all the time, I've found that myself many times.

Good luck with your search Jen, I know that you'll find what you're looking for.

It's funny how certain higher ups where I work stop in
my dad's business to pick up a jewelry repair and whatnot
and rave to my dad on how good of an employee I am,
and then I have to find this stuff out from my own dad,
and I just wish that I could hear this good stuff from
the higher ups themselves rather than thru a third
party (such as my dad).

thank you for the venting off via PM *hugs* :)

I saw you over on the New England thread ;)

Believe me, I've been keeping my eyes peeled for anything
that interests me........hopefully w/ the jobsites that WG posted
up for me on the 1st page of this thread will be of some help.
I also think to myself that at least I do have a job.

thank you for the cyberhug *hugs* :)

didn't mean you in particular

:p
When i said "you create your own environment " I didn't mean you especially, I ment everyone. Ive really gotten bogged down by people around me too, actually dealing with personalities at work is like my worste problem, last job I had my team all got hired at the same time and my co-workers just "clicked up" without me and my boss blamed all her mistakes on me so that by the time it became an issue she had her boss in her pocket ready to scapegoat me.
Anyway good luck on the job hunting. Or start youre own buisness like Im gonna do then you can really shape youre environment hehe.

I really don't know you so I won't presume to make this very personal. If you are stuck and unable to change jobs quickly I would advise you to look at your situation and try to find ways to make yourself more attractive to employers on as wide an horizon as I could create. Go back to school if need be. Take a pay cut if need be if it means working in a field closer to your liking. In addition, make sure your giving yourself enough credit for the help you bring to those you serve. You will never make dime one in human service but it will build your soul and heck, we all need strong souls these days. Hang in.
