> Finally! It pays quite a bit less (almost half), and is not in my regular line of work, but at least I finally have something! I can't believe it took so long! I was really getting desperate. I'm still going to keep looking, but at least maybe I won't lose my apartment or car now.
> This has been such a crazy time for me!
> I start today. I was really sick with a stomach virus the last couple of days, so I'm not at my best. And its been years since I had a job where I was on my feet all day, and delt with the public. So I'm kind of nervous. Wish me luck!
Hey, good luck! I know the feeling of being unemployed, or underemployed and depressed...and it is just awful. So, just take it slow, day by day. It doesn't mean this has to be the rest of your life, just a temporary thing to, as you say, pay the bills. Believe me, there have been times I have wanted to quit with all the pressure of the job at times, but I just rode it out. On rough days, with the aches and pains of depression, a good dose of a strong pain killer really helped, and I just take things slowly. Again, just go slow and with the 'flow', and all should be fine! On the rough days, just come on here and rant, rant, rant...:-) That's what we are all here for.Best wishes,
Jay
