J.O.B
I have the fear that I will become one of those sad looking cocktail waitresses in a while. I cannot seem to find a job that both appeals to me, and that pays what I need to cover my expenses. Creative types have the hardest time because there needs to be a balance between skills and the intangible factors. I am familiar with some graphic design programs but not all, and I have a great technical background but it is all by hand. Then there is the fact that most fashion staff don't get paid very well (though they should). Even if I am what the employer is looking for it's still possible that I will be making no money. Then I will be forced to become a cocktail waitress for no reason other than lack of options. I hope I have better luck the rest of this week in finding something I enjoy. I apply to a minimum of 4 jobs a day. One is bound to click, or at least that is what I keep telling myself.

I feel your pain on the job hunt. I've been looking for about 7 months since leaving a job that made me an emotional wreck. I keep making the short list for a new job, but never the final cut. Lots of informationals, lots of interviews. . . we thought you were great, but. . .
so frustrating.
I hope something comes up for both of us. I hate when you feel like you won't find anything that truly fits. I'm crossing both sets of fingers, one for you and one for me.
