Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

uncherry, perhaps last post

Thanks God for life, Jesus hereafter. I have no liking for much. I can't get happy.

Why crime?

I think I now know why people turn to crime. I think that I have put for a good effort -- 2-4 hours daily reading and submitting to job postings. I don't have a criminal history. I have no violations on my driving license going back 10 years. I have complex and simple jobs. I want a chance, a break, an opportunity. I have good references. I have never been fired and have given 2 weeks notice to all employers, save my job in Wisconsin -- forced leave+.

+ long story, but suffice to write -- no money, left in hotel with only hours to get somewhere, which lead to dissolution of marriage and return migration to FW, IN

Stocked up and sold out

I appear to be stocked up on failures and have failed to order or sold out of successes. I would guess that on average, I post my resume' and submit applications at a rate of over 20 per day (really higher). If I were to calculate that my standards have significantly lowered and that I would calculate this at only for the last two months, I have sent nearly 1000 postings. Out of that, I have received just about nothing. I have sent far more than 2000. If I were suicidal, I would already be dead.

This is not sad, but sickening. I can't get a job at McDonald's, I've tried -- no call back. I have either no experience in an area, a desk job for too long or I have bad breath. What gives. No one I know has submitted so many friggin' applications and resume's with so little response. All I want is a chance -- if I fail at the interview, then so be it, but after all of that ... I should have something.

I applied to Blockbuster where I used to work ... nothing. I applied to Wal-Mart, but they would not accomodate me on a schedule change for my preliminary interview, so no call-back. I have tried industry and manufacturing. I have tried retail, even gas stations. I have tried management, hourly, grunt work. I am more than discouraged. I suppose that I could be even more depressed as it is the season for it, but I think that it's the only thing keeping me going.

I don't drive if I can avoid it and have a nice, growing larger stack of unpaid bills. I have completely exhausted all of my own money (borrowing from my 403b). I can't get a job and for no particular reason.

I have applied from Maine and Alaska to California to Florida. I have not put many limitations of things. I don't have money and would be willing to live out of a motel 6 for a month if I got a job.

If anyone knows of any jobs that aren't posted on careerbuilder, monster, regionalhelpwanted, thingamajobs, indanajobbanks, usjobbanks, allretailjobs, getthejob, coke co, mcGraw-Hill, theLadders, Yahoojobs, CBSindustries, Accounttemps, Nettemp, railroad, Officeteam, Kitty Hawk, or Manpower please let me know. I have tried all of these. I log in to all of these daily. I have sent faxes, email, US post letters.

My only other option is military which won't take me because of an immaterial medical issue, but maybe like me, they have lowered their standards.

I have a BS Ed, which must be Blast Self Expeditedly.

Win Media 11

Hurry up and wait. Let's see: I had my music on Win 10, but apparently Win 11 doesn't know squat of what Win 10 did. It also forces albumn art. I deleted that crap long ago. I save many a Meg and quite frankly, I care not for a small pic of an albumn. Let's examine AC/DC who put some of the same songs on three some CDs. Which one to attribute to the song as you eventually either have several copies of the same song or over-write them. It does play a little greater number of formats, but so far -- not that impressed.

It has taken several hours of Win Media looking for my music and it still hasn't found it all. I have another program that actually does sound leveling (Win Media does not), but to load it into Win Media with "sound leveling" takes longer. That is, shall I say, bull.

...

I wanted to write, I wanted a job. I needed the latter.

I've tried

I've tried the ambassador, the consulate, the President; I just can't bring my+ resume' to come up with a job. I can't get a hit, like playing Vegas blackjack and I have a 2 hole card and a 3 showing. I can't get a hit and the dealer is showing 17.

Like red stripes on a leprecaun

Angel costumes and kids who don're really know the lyrics and lack choreography. Nothing speaks not really Christmas like this. The director had to see this in the months of practice that things really didn't match well.

Kids "singing" Christmas carols and stepping left and right -- I wouldn't call it dancing. The part the viewer is missing is why the "angel" outfits?
