Feeling down :(
So my job ends this month and I've been applying for jobs out the wazoo and NOTHING! I mean geeze, I feel like people see that I'm educated and automatically run for the hills. I really wanted a job out at a plant in the area and the HR manager really liked me. I went in for an interview for admin asst to the safety dept. Well the interview went awesome! I got immediate replies to my thank you letters. I was very confident, and guess what! I didn't get the job! I was 2nd runner to the position. So I got an email a day later for the HR manager about another job, went in 2 weeks later to interview. Have been waiting 2 weeks to hear back from that interview and guess what?!! ANOTHER rejection. WTF!! The HR manager called me to apologize personally. He said that I should have gotten ONE of those jobs. That I am more than qualified but they weren't expecting the other person that applied to have additional skills that were required. Apparently he really likes me because he told me there might be a 3rd opening in the next week or 2. He was really upset that I wasn't hired and said that if I still wanted to give them a chance he would forward my resume to the next supervisor first and tell him I was one of the top people for the past 2 FREAKING jobs that I have applied to there. UGH I'm so frustrated and upset. I have less than 2 weeks before I am unemployed! This might give me time to work more on my sewing but I have to spend money to make money and I won't have any money to spend on supplies and I really need a serger to get started. I could use zig zag but its not as profession IMO. I'm so BUMMED!! I had an interview today at a university for an adviser position. It pays alot less than what I'm making now, I'm not sure what their max pay would be for starting out, but it's 10k less a year if I get the minimum pay AND I would still have to drive to victoria!! Not that my car is a gas guzzler but I'm still spending $70 or more a week on gas. I just can't catch a break. I've got all my friends and family praying for me and I've been pray myself several times a day. I just don't know what else to do. I know there is a plan for me. I just don't know what it is. Hoping to get a call back from one of the plants soon. Until then, I'm going to lock myself in the sewing room and bang out some projects. I have a blanket for Owen I need to finish. A apron for Rox that I need to sew. I'm going to get some fleece to sew up some easy diaper covers for Roxanne. I found a site to get some wool interlock fabric. Its pretty expensive for a yard but if I buy 10 it will be cheaper. I was thinking of getting 10 yards and selling off what I'm not using or posting some stuff up on etsy. I need to get my hustle on. Most people on etsy are selling wool interlock for $12 to $30 a yard. Well I'm running for now.
