Officially Unemployed!

[hells_half_acre]

My last day of work was yesterday. I am now officially unemployed.

This is a good thing, because I really couldn't stand my job anymore - either it had to go, or I did, basically. There's only so long that you can deal with both monotony AND crimes against humanity, and I drew the line at five years.

Now, the last time I tried to find a different job, it didn't work out so well and I had to go crawling back. Going crawling back isn't an option this time, so hopefully I find something else.

In the meantime, while I'm unemployed, I should HOPEFULLY have plenty of time to do a S8 rewatch and write things.

If anyone has any job leads in the Vancouver area (or the South/Eastern Ontario area, or the Montreal area, or the Germany area) let me know! From experience, it helps if you are the one actually doing the hiring and can give me an unfair advantage in the application/interview process. Nepotism is a huge problem in Canada and quite frankly, if you can't beat them, join them.

What are my qualifications? I can do anything. Unfortunately, this isn't reflected on my resume, so you'll have to take my word for it.

I wish you luck in your job search, you have a great sense of optimism for sure. When I saw your post, I thought...oh no, another person furloughed, but then I remembered that you were lucky to be Canadian.

"The Germany area..." Lol! Surely economy is doing quite well over here and with Angie in power another 4 years hopefully it stays like that for a bit :)

Sadly I'm in no position to hire you for anything :( Unless you want to temp as a cleaner at a trade fair in the Ruhr area, in wich case my husband might be able to find something for you...

YAY!!!! for you that you are finally out of a job that you absolutely hate. That took guts. Not a lot of people, me included, would leave a job they hate to go into the unknown world of the unemployed. I rely too much on that paycheck, and I have great fears about not getting one, as I have been in that position too many times to count. I do hope you are able to find something reasonable within a good amount of time.
