Dealing with the pandemic restrictions is hard enough but throw in redundancy and the situation with your ex it's not surprising you've been down. But so glad you've made decisions about your future.

Well, lets just keep it real; this shutdown here in NY state is causing the job hunt to be non exsitent. So, 'suck it up buttercup' became my mantra (I said it to myself) and went in a completely different direction. I accepted a supervisory job at a major retailer. Well, the loans have to get paid back, and food on the table etc. I should start training next week...oh and I found ageism is a real thing...not meaning to reign on the parade. I was just about to give up and throw my hands in the air (ok, I did) when the call came in. Background, credit check, fingerprints, resume passed etc. I had originally applied for a HR position 12 weeks ago. ANYWAYS...it is what it is.<br /><br />Wishing you tons of luck and prayers. This is a scary time, I get it. Truly I do.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16466115918585699329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7151368824212034335.post-65129835200671903052020-09-17T08:49:33.191-04:002020-09-17T08:49:33.191-04:00I will pray that Mark goes in peace.

I have been retired some time, got to retire early. The first thing I did the day I retired , I cried, because I had no job. Working is a big part of our lives. But I must say, you seem to have set a great goal for yourself and I will pray you get that degree in nursing.

I am going through this with my brother. We really stopped talking about nine years ago. I found out through my daughter, he had a brain tumor removed and he had lung cancer. I called him and he told me to F-OFF. Some people carry a whole lot of hate with them.<br /><br />I will leave you with a line from the end of American History X: "Hate is baggage, life's too short to be pissed off all the time, it's just not worth it." <br /><br />Both of us in attempting to reach to those who are having issues are shedding ourselves of our own baggage and all we can do is pray for them.csuhpat1https://www.blogger.com/profile/12324673812333885120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7151368824212034335.post-83778504872201426552020-09-16T22:23:05.082-04:002020-09-16T22:23:05.082-04:00You've got a great plan for the next phase in ...You've got a great plan for the next phase in your life.

Change is always tough especially when you know something is going to end, but aren't sure when. It sounds like you have taken the time you needed to adjust and come up with a course of action for the next portion of your life's journey. Well done! I hope you find the needed job so you can work and go to school at the same time. Offering a prayer for your former boyfriend and continuing to offer my thoughts and prayers to you.Robin in Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963664770288800348noreply@blogger.com
