Too much Education CAN hurt you

So, it's January 31, I have been out of work since the second week of November 2005 (unless you count the 6hrs I did in December) and I have no promising outlooks on the places that I did apply.
Granted, I only really started looking for a job this month. November and December I had planned to not look because it would be the only real free time I would have to go to Virginia whenever. Well...I really couldn't afford to go the 2 times I did, but I did anyway because I love Grov and not being with him would hurt more than being poor, so there we go.

This is the first time in my life that I have really had to GET a job. Sure, when I first started working at the museum, it was because I needed to help my parents out with MY tuition, so I found a job...and quickly. Literally, it was: found a job on the jobbank for the museum at 3am; wrote up cover letter and sparkled up the resume by 4am; woke up, got ready, and handed in resume for job at museum in early afternoon; got request for interview same afternoon; had interview next day; got job 3hrs after interview. So, not getting any interviews at places where I could do the job well is very discouraging. Even more discouraging is having an interview for a really crappy part time job and never getting a phone call back. What does that tell me.

I'm overqualified for the shit jobs, and not good enough for everything else.

So right now, I'm an unemployed, university graduate, with some museum experience that can't get a job anywhere. I may as well wipe my ass with my degree because right now, that's all it's really good for.

Can you say discouraged??? I sure as hell can, and can spell it for you too.

Job

I need one...'nuff said

Holidays and More

Well, Christmas and New Years has come and gone, and I am once again stuck here in the Great White North wishing I were somewhere else...Like Virginia with Grov.

My two weeks down south were lovely and the best Christmas gift I could have ever received. I like just hanging out with him, or driving around many different states on New Years Eve, going to Gettysburg just for the day and falling in love with it all over again while enjoying lunch at the Farnsworth Inn.

But now, I'm back at home (came home January 4th...a day before Independence Air went TU) and now I'm here all by my lonesome because my parents are spending close to 3 weeks in Florida and a 10-day cruise in the Carribean. Wish I didn't have to be alone, because I get very lonely and depressed and become very lazy and unproductive.

I really should be looking for a job, but I really Don't know where to look. I admit, I'm probably being too picky, but I DON'T want to work at a food place like Wendy's or Tim Horton's. I'd love to be able to have some kind of substance where I work, besides "Would you like fries with that?"

What else...don't know what else to really say. I'm bored, I'm poor, and I'm sick of being far away from Grov.

The End
