Well, it's not a surprise that last week was not a good week. I was sick and encountered some setbacks which are making me worry. I don't like dealing with waiting or given things which are too complicated for me to figure out. I'm just scared that if someone doesn't come through for me soon, I'm going to be in even worse trouble. Look, I have been taking care of what I can do on my own...it's just time some people got me out of it by hiring me. I had a co-worker I liked who was also terminated (Although they never gave her a reason why and that's unfortunately legal in this state) and it took her 2 years to get a job. She didn't have to worry about some things because she was already married, but dear God, I have less than that. And I'm already at one year. This just doesn't help when the people who are supposed to be helping you aren't. So I got firm with one of them and said if he didn't answer me by Wed., I'm asking for someone new to help. I don't want to deal with someone unreliable when things are getting way too stressful. Also, I'm still waiting to hear on a job. I don't know how long background checks take, but this is just getting me stressed. And I don't need that.
However, a friend of mine told me to keep my head up. He was also in the same position a while ago (Although I'm not sure of how unemployment goes in Britain) but he's also been dealing with personal stuff. And I really do need to be like that. I just need to keep remembering to punch back.
