Finding a new job has been nothing short of frustrating. Yesterday I went to work at what I thought would be my first day at a new photo studio, but the owner up and decided to bring his son in mid-day and not hire me nor another new guy and hire his own kid, a kid who needed to be told what a contact sheet was, did nothing all day, and even flat- ( Read more... )

Nova Scotia rules! I'd totally move here if there was work for me.

One braindead office job secured!

How about this Friday night?

Good luck - job hunting sucks. People are weird when it comes to hiring as we have been learning these past many months. The Mister has been looking for a job since his grad school funding got cut off in the summer - looking for a job and trying to finish his PhD. Needless to say he has been a little stressed and it doesn't help that we live in Calgary and apparently people are just "giving jobs away to anyone" (not actually true btw). Oh - and the baby is due in less than two months. I will send you Speedy Job Finding Vibes. :)

Yeah, they say the job market is hot right now, but rarely are they jobs people would really want. Thanks for les vibes! I feel as if I may be wasting my time where I work now, but the ease of it hasn't worn off its appeal yet.

Good luck with the CBC! Let us know how it turns out. I'll hit ya up for tips :)

And congrats on the braindead office job... Most of us have to hold one down at one time or another, unfortunately.

The office is such a stiff place, I don't know why Nanaimo doesn't just ban them, they're not that town's style.

So far, I am loving the lack of stress I encounter. But that also means my job is basically worthless, which it pretty much is. I could get weeks off at a time if I wanted to, nobody cares. I got today off and they didn't even ask why.
