Job hunting is ever so slightly soul destroying. The constant rejection, no vacancies, 'you have to apply online'....it all gets a bit much. Thankfully though this wasn't the whole story and I did get a few more positive responses and have a couple of interviews tomorrow. I am keeping my fingers firmly crossed that one of them is right for me!
After the last post where I said I had a bad day I decided I didn't want to go back to my old job. It was making my constantly miserable and I was fed up of being treated like I was unimportant and as if I had no feelings. Nobody deserves to made to feel like that, and recent events have really hammered home the message that 'life is too short'. I had been fed up there for a long time but 'sticking with it until something better comes along'. Which of course it never did as I wasn't really looking hard enough.
With the decision to leave made I found it much easier to actually start the job hunting process. I refreshed my CV, printed lots of copies and began handing them out everywhere. It was draining and often disappointing but the need to earn money to live, and the desire not to return to my old job kept me going. I just hope it has all paid off, and hopefully after tomorrow I will know! I haven't stopped looking for other vacancies even though I now have some interviews-they might come to nothing so it is always best to keep an eye out.
In the meantime I have been living the life of the unemployed...the flat has never looked so clean, the washing is up to date, I have caught up on all the TV and films that I have wanted to watch since Christmas and got 'To Do' lists ticked off so its not all been bad!
