have you ever just woken up one morning

and realized this cannot be your life? I am so unsatisfied with the way things are. I make shit at my job and it's not challenging for me. I'm not fulfilling my potential and it frustrates me so much because there is nothing I can do about it. No one is hiring. You have to know someone to get a job these days.

Not your field of work but few things you could look into. awesomecat March 29 2009, 02:43:58 UTC
If its something that might possibly interest you, rest homes and other care homes are almost always hiring even if just for housekeeping needs. And almost all of them will pay over minimum wage.

Also, with CPR/First Aid certification (which you can get in a 1 day class for $30-$70 varying) you can do respite care work with disabled adults and children or work with the elderly. All of this is really hands on and personal/interpersonal work so if you are a people person it might be something to look into, pay will definitely be above minimum wage. I am applying for a Behavioural Respite Worker with Changing Tides Family Services here in Eureka and I have a decent chance at getting the job. It pays $12.50 an hour and compensates me for gas. Hard but rewarding work.

Be something to look into. Check hospitals, rest homes, family care services, etc if it's something you think you could do/would want to do.

Kinda sucks that you can't always depend on hair cutting gigs and stuff like that... SO when is someone going to invent the miracle product that make's a person's hair grow 5 times faster? Then you'd be gettin' hella business!

Feel free and call me anytime if you want to know anything more or to just rant. (707)367-8895
