My Wish List

I wish I had a career that would open doors to bigger and better things, instead of a job with not even a window

I wish I had a man who didn't care what the number on the scale is, but cared that I looked my best for him

I wish I had more money so I could move out instead of making chump change forcing me to live here

I wish I had something to eat so my stomach would stop rumbling! lol

I wish I was planning my marriage with him

I wish I wasn't pushing 30 and not have anything going right in my life

Job Search

So I'm seriously back in the whole job search thing, though I never really stopped since I got out of college. I have to get a new job by October, I cannot stand to continue to be in the position I'm in but......

Michigan is running an 8.5% unemployment rate as of July.....where on earth will I find a job in this market?????

And I'm looking all over the place, career builder, monster, local papers classifieds, magazine classifieds, craigslist and nothing.

I've applied for A position with my company but I know I'm not going to get that


I think within the last 6 months I've applied to at least 150-200 jobs and no call back, no email back nothing.....

what am I doing wrong?????

I know I need to revamp my resume, but thats a bit costly......

I know whats partly to blame......the stupid current position I have now. Its looked at as having no experience I bet, I feel thats how we're looked at within our own company so I'm sure other employers are thinking the same

Any help would be great

Til Next Time!
