Last year I had 5 different jobs, all nursing homes, I love my job, I plan to make sure to ask off for a day if I need it way ahead of time, to be on time, to call in before not going to work, and do that 2 hours before my shift. I have an interview today, and one promising job interview next week at the hospital. Yay Me! I know I can do it. 10 months ago

So it’s a crappy, temporary (hopefully) job but it pays the bills, and that’s what I need.

I’ve hit my 90 day mark a few days ago…woo hoo! 11 months ago

I’m already looking for a different job. Management is horrible. I could list all the crappy things they’ve done but I don’t want to get myself all worked up. Let’s just say bordering illegal.

Hoping the next one I pick will be a lot less stress. It’s not worth it to have so much anxiety revolving around a job.

Although I have a habit of job hopping this job is particularly shitty. So off to find a better one.

I’ve applied to about 25 different jobs this week. Hopefully I’ll find something. We’ll see. I applied to Wells Fargo. Although I’m not completely stoked about this job I’m just hoping it will be better. 11 months ago

I got the job, now I just need to keep it. I think I’ll mark this as done after I’ve finished the initial 90 days.

So far everyone seems really nice. I think I’ll do just fine. In fact they actually have a competition/drawing for attendence and whoever wins will get iHome docks. Pretty cool.

But I still need to get another job to keep up with bills. But I’m thankful I at least have one. 13 months ago

I got one job and I am going to need a second one. I start the 20th! 14 months ago

So the one place said I have the job, didn’t hear from them for a while, called them and they said they need some more time, still waiting…still no job…in the mean time I had another interview. They said they would have called me by the end of the day…didn’t happen. Probably didn’t get that job. It’s frustrating considering I’ve applied to hundreds of places and they act like everyone they interview has all the time in the world and has no bills to pay…ugh. Trying to think happy thoughts, but it’s hard when my eye twitches in anger. 14 months ago

I’m originally from Alaska but I wanted to move somewhere in California where the rent was cheap, so I moved to Sacramento. We had a hell of a time looking for a job. I only had a temp job. I decided to move closer to San Fran since I want to go to school there. I’m not in San Fran but about 45 min away. Already I’m noticing that finding a job in this area is a lot better than in Sacramento.

I have a job interview in a couple days at a Macy’s a few towns over. I hope it goes well. I need a job, any job at this point.

So I usually don’t have a problem getting a job, it’s the keeping the job part that I tend to have problems with. I have Bipolar Type Two along with Major depression on top of major stomach problems where I need to see a GI specialist. It seems like when I’m on top of my game and taking my psych meds and I feel well my stomach will start to act up. I’m bleeding internally but they can’t figure out from where, they need to do more tests. So I have a lot of crap going on that would make it difficult to go to work, but I want to be normal and go to work despite everything. I think sometimes calling in sick can be easy, but I’m at the point financially where I’m going to have to bust my ass.

I guess one way I can motivate myself is to remember what my mom went through. She was going through Chemo, my dad was unemployed, yet despite being sick from the Chemo and after surgery from her Masectomy she still got up and went to work. She did call in a few times but that’s a hell of a lot better than I expected she’d do. Thankfully she’s in remission.

What I’d like to gain this year is a healthy work ethic. 15 months ago
