Anyone around? Resume Help

I haven't been on here much at all lately.  Things have been busy and crazy and drama-ey.  Some of you may have seen my FB status, but for those that didn't, I got fired yesterday.  I really don't understand why and honestly feel like there were some personal issues involved and no matter what I did, they wanted to get rid of me for some reason.  I'm in such a daze.  I can't eat, couldn't sleep.  DH stayed home w/ me yesterday which was super sweet.  I'm just worried about getting a job in my field w/ all the limitations of this city.  I don't know how we're gonna survive on his salery.  We barely made it anyway.  DH's mom said they would help if we need it.  I just don't want to rely on them.  My resume is 6 years old, so I worked on it all day yesterday.  There are a few Keeper positions at the Zoo one full and 2 part time.  I'm gonna try for the all, just to get my foot in the door.  A few coworkers are going to be my references and the Edu Director said she would be glad to keep me on the education bird team.  Its been so long since I had to do all this.  I don't know where to go or what to do anymore.

Thanks to anyone who listed and special thanx to anyone that could help w/ my resume.

Re: Anyone around? Resume Help

  • :( so sorry. I know you will find something in no time!
  • I'm so sorry. I have no resume advice, since mine is always a work in progress and isn't great anyways. I just wanted to say that really, really sucks. :::hugs::: I think it'll work out and you'll find something soon. Just have to stay positive, but I truly know your fears, I remember thinking those exact things when I lost my job last year. It's ok to feel down and scared. Just remember to keep going. I think you're just that awesome at what you do, because you're passionate about it too, that you'll find something soon.
  • I am sooo sorry!!!! I saw your FB status.  I wanted to ask what happened, but I was hoping you would come tell us.

    I would be more than happy to look over your resume. you can email it to me postwedding08@ gmail.com

    Have you still been helping out with the gulf?  Could you contact any of the people you worked with on the oil spill for possible jobs in your area etc? 

  • Thanks for the kind words and support.  I definately need it.  Its been a rough 2 days.  Haven't eaten much, can't sleep well, crazy range of emotions and my tummy is wacked out.  I just never thought I'd be in this postition.  Something good has to come out of this, I just can't see it right now.

  • I'd be willing to take a look at your resume if you still want help.  I'm going to PM you my main email address; it has my maiden name in it so I don't want to post it publicly.

  • Oh no, Sax!  I can't believe you are having to go through this.  I am so sorry!

    I know you have had a lot of problems at work over the last year, but I know you would much rather deal with the drama and still have your job.

    I'll be keeping you in my prayers, and hopefully one of the jobs at the zoo will work out.  PM me or FB message me if you need anything, ok?
