After getting up at my usual time of about 8:30am, I spent sometime online and called in to the unemployment office to reopen my claim. Yep, it's been over a year that I have been laid off! It's quite depressing really. Just a year ago, I was living life happily until I was pulled into my boss's office and told due to cut backs, they were going to have to let me go. How my little heart broke. Which leads me to this point in my life. STILL unemployed and looking. However now I've come to realize that I am NOT going to be able to find work in the 9 to 5 working environment that I am accustom to. I must go back to my beginnings of hospitality of being a waitress or my new class that I just took, a bartender. I hate the thought of the hours not being steady and having the rotating shifts but one has to do what one has to do. Such is life. Let's hope I have better luck in that department.
