It's all about that structure

Jan 28, 2020 22:47

Day One of learning to structure my days went well! I went to bed early and got up at 8am. Did some reading, job hunting, and a couple fun things and had it all done early. Maybe I will get the hang of this 'sleeping at night and getting up at a regular hour like a normal person' thing after all ( Read more... )

Job hunting is the pits. (That's probably one of the reasons we stay in jobs so long.) But even though there were a large number of people applying for those jobs, maybe you'll be the one with the best fit.

Have you tried working for a temporary service? I've done it in the past and had some success in finding long-term work that way. Not real great on the benefit front, but it is income and you'll get to try out a place to see if it's a good fit for you (and vice-versa).

Good luck!

That is TOTALLY why we stay in jobs for so long. Ugh.

I haven't used a temp agency yet. I have a list of "places I will apply if what I'm doing now doesn't pan out" which includes a couple of call centres, a candy factory, and 2 temp agencies that I used to deal with at my old job. I'm trying to remember that there is no great rush and I don't have to take a crappy job. It's just difficult when I am not used to being unemployed.
