Just a Personal Update

There has not really been anything new to write about other than the fact that I am still looking for a job since the store I worked at closed the end of January 2009. Job hunting in any economy is nerve wracking, but it is especially hard to do when the economy is in such bad shape.

I guess the trick is to keep a positive attitude and just keeping up the job hunt and updating information on resumes and applications if something changes. Things will get better eventually and one has to keep up hope and try to remember that. I started applying for jobs as soon as I heard we were closing knowing that so many places only do online applications and it can take time for those applications to reach the right people.

I have tried to do both online and in person applications since the last week I worked. Sometimes even if a company is not "actively" looking to hire someone when you apply does not mean that they will not have something soon. Sometimes people transfer, move away, quit, or get terminated for some reason or the company might have an opening, but have to wait for some reason to interview people and then hire someone.

It is hard to stay optimistic though I admit. It is hard knowing I have bills and no job. I worked part time even though I needed full time and many things went on the credit cards like so many people in the United States because of it. My family is now starting to understand that and are looking for ways to help.

My goal is to have half of my credit cards paid off by the end of this year and hopefully the rest by the middle of next year. I guess it will depend on how long it takes for me to find a new job, what kind of job (full time or part time) and how much money I make how long it takes to pay off the credit cards.

All for now thanks for reading this if you made it to the end. Sometimes it just helps to put things in writing to boost (mostly me) a person's spirit.
