I'm going to scream....

if I don't find a job soon.

This is killing me.

We need to not live with my parents. I love them, but I don't want to live here. It's looking like there will be no military related move for us in the next eight months or so....not until March so that's no help.

I went to about six places today and they want you to go apply online and wait for a call. That's crap. I hate that that is how we apply for jobs now. It freaking sucks.

And I'm totally depressed. We're basically making $0 a month. Between a tiny bit of freelance writing and the few military things hubby gets to do we've been lucky to make $300 a month. Plus my dad let us work for him during that big softball tournament...but there isn't another one until next summer. 

I'm going to go cry now.

Re: I'm going to scream....

  • I completely, totally agree.  DH hasn't had a job since April and I'm on 50%, so we're barely paying the mortgage, let alone everything else.  Stay positive tho, at least your parents are helping you not rack up any debt. It could be worse! And I've been applying for jobs too. I'm averaging a Cover Letter a day and nothing. Ugh. But it will get better!!!

  • I'm sorry, Kayla :( Keep your chin up, girl!! We're all thinking of you. I hope an opportunity comes your way soon. I know what you mean about the whole online application process, though. You don't get to make that first impression that you would if you would actually turn the application and resume in to the actual person. You're a piece of paper when filing online. Ugh it's annoying.
  • Good luck with you job search and try to stay positive!  And, I don't know what kind of job you are looking for, but maybe if you just got a job at a fast food joint or in retail just to hold you up until you find something else.  I don't know about where you are at but around here I still constantly see signs about Burger Kings and McDonalds hiring.  I know it's not the most attractive job in the world but it would give you more money.  Just a thought!
