This is getting redonkulous
Okay, I was actually in a good mood today when I walked into the building. I was yesterday too. It never fails though. Less than an hour into my day, I'm in a foul mood. And actually not for the same reason that I was cranky yesterday. A whole different thing.
I really have to stop complaining and do something about getting a better job. That's it, I am going to spend one night a week applying for jobs. If I don't put myself out there, how can anything change? I hope to apply to at least two jobs a week until I get a better job. As long as I have the chance of getting benefits and part time work so I can concentrate on school, I'll take an hourly pay cut. I've survived on little to no money before.
I actually received two emails this week for Teaching assistantships on campus. I emailed back on one of them asking them to review the application I turned in with the application for school, the other one I need to read up on and put together the application and cover letter. I think that one also requires letter of reference or at least references... Job hunting, as Ms. S can attest, is hard work. But how can I continue to complain about something if I am not willing to make a change.
As Ghandi says, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." Not really what he meant but you get the sentiment.

Good for you! I know it can be tough to take that first step to make a change, but once you've done it, everything else will fall into place. I like my Marz to be a happy Marz. :) And of course, I will be here to prop you up and support you... and hide all the sharp objects. LOL
You will be so much happier somewhere else. Yes, job hunting sucks, but I'm armed with the "things happen for a reason" mentality. I hope it works for you...(and continues to work for me).
Good luck!
