Daily Dose of Frustration
Hello Everyone:
The daily exercise in frustration continues. The least frustrating part of my day was the grocery store. I went in, got what I needed, paid, and left. Still no rent or grocery assistance money, at least as of this morning when I checked the mail. Who knows what today's mail will bring. Seriously? What's the hold up? I've been approved for the funds, I just have to get it. I've been on everyone's tail about when I expect my money. At this rate, I'll be employed before I see a dime. Not that I wouldn't take the money, maybe on short term basis. Then there's my other favorite exercise in frustration, applying for work. I sent out a couple of resumes and took an online tutor test in social studies. The online tutor test was in social studies and was quite a challenge. Fortunately, I took my time and made use of allowed notes (Wikipedia). I did well on the test but I may have to pause the application process because the pay isn't exactly what I'm normally worth. I can make up to twice what the online tutoring place was offering me. I have a good sense of my worth as a tutor. Truthfully, I'd rather talk to the county arts commission about working for them because it offers the stability and security I so badly need. Yesterday on a whim,I sent a resume to a local business newspaper for a general assignment reporting job. I checked it out and it seems like it might interest me to work there. I have no idea what I'd be assigned to do but if I'm offered the job, I'll keep an open mind. Anyway, this weekend I have an information session on a community college certificate program. It shouldn't take all day, leaving me time to blog. I try to do something every day because that way I keep from going too stir crazy. I just wish something would land already. I'm tired of waiting for my turn
