Negative Nancy...

I've been sort of a Negative Nancy lately, but with good reason...

1. I have no job
2. Every employer I apply with tells me "sorry, there were other candidates who qualifications better met our requirements at this time"
3. Florida's unemployment rate is outrageously high!

Ok, thank you, done venting. But seriously, something has got to give! I invested so much time and energy into my education and still do not have a wonderful and fulfilling career. Don't get me wrong the little bit of work that I do have right now is better then nothing, but it's not helping me move forward in my career at all. Nor is it helping me get any closer to getting the hell out of my mother's house! Good Lord, never in a million years would I have thought that I would be stuck 25 and still living at home and be unemployed. That word has such a negative connotation with it too...when I used to hear of people collecting unemployment I thought "lazy bastards". How wrong was I? Apparently very wrong and maybe this is karma kicking me in the ass. All I want is a good job and to move out of the bedroom I grew up in! :(

Until that time, I've got to find something to do during the days when I am not working. Possibly volunteering, I've got to get out of the house!

The one rainbow in my grey sky is triathlon season and starting my training plan for that next week!
