Sometimes I wonder how I find myself on certain websites. Yes, every now and then I go there on purpose. But sometimes I find things like a Billet grille completely on accident. I don’t know how I end up navigating there, I just do. LOL And sometimes, the page catches my interest. Seriously. Who couldn’t use a better grill for their car?
I’ve had an emotionally roller-coast like day. I woke up feeling all inspired and happy. Within 3 hours of said wake up, I was blue, depressed and fearful. I had my job interview this morning for Communications Specialist. The interview itself went VERY well and they were very impressed with my background in law enforcement.
So what, you may ask, do I have to be so fearful, depressed and blue about? I’ll tell you. CIVIL SERVICE JOBS TAKE FOREVER to get hired. I tested for this job in September, had my interview today. The next step is the psych (they call it a suitability) test. This test will not take place before the end of January. The step after that is the drug screening and polygraph, which won’t happen until mid-February.
I’m upset because I NEED A JOB and my money will run out by the time these people hire me. Sometimes, civil service sucks. But once you get hired, it takes an act of God to get rid of ya so it CAN be worth it in the long run. I guess I’ll find out.
In response to how I’m feeling today, I went grocery shopping and took myself to Target to spend the gift card my mom got me for Christmas. After that, I sent my resume to four different companies I found on CareerBuilderdotcom. We’ll see what happens. I’m continuing to put myself out there, throwing my resume out there and watching for job fairs and what not.
I’m just feeling down and the weather hasn’t helped. It’s been cold and rainy alllll day long. It’s supposed to get colder over the weekend and into the New Year. YAY!
Until next time…
