Wow, what a year it has been. Things just don't seem to be getting better anywhere. As a matter of fact, it would almost seem like they are getting worse. I have tried just about anything and just about anywhere, with absolutely no luck. I know that I have the skills, but maybe I'm not putting them forward in the best light. I've been reading all kinds of articles, posting my resume' in places I would never have thought to post it, and still nothing. I've even tried a work from home job, that I'm still waiting to get paid for and if things would work out with that, I would stick to it for a while. But you really have to be careful with work from home because a lot of those jobs are scams and you can get taken for a lot of money. No I didn't put any money into this and won't simply because I don't have any. But I still have hope that someday soon, I will be going back to work and finally be able to stand on my own two feet again.
I just hope that the financial mess that this country and others are in, can be solved in a timely manner and that our debts will not be passed down to our children and grandchildren.
Here's to a great New Year and prosperity for all who seek it.

Still no word
I have now been getting interviews, however I'm not hearing back on them. I have tried calling, emailing, and the like, but the person is either not there or they're in a meeting. What to do? Be persistent.
I don't like it when a company, that you interview with, doesn't take the time to at least let you know that you aren't being considered for the position. To me, common courtesy says that you should take the time to let someone know what is happening, so that plans can be made. I know that HR and managers are busy people. I know that with so many things on their minds, they may forget, however to not take someones call???
Anyway, I'm still trying. I'm not going to give up. It's hard out there, but it's the persistent person that will actually come out on top. There are many good, well qualified people looking for work. To anyone looking to hire, don't think that just because someone is more than qualified to do that the job, that you can't afford them, or that they will get bored and look for something else. That's not always the case. Sometimes, they will be just like me, trying to find something so that they can get their life back on track and will turn out to be one of the best employees that you ever could have hired.
Don't give up, times will get better if you hang in there.
