Send me your good mojo!

I'm ordinarily a very positive person. But today I'm feeling my unemployment wear on me. I've been unemployed since moving to Denver in August (the longest length of time I've ever been employed). I have some irons in the fire, but I'm just so defeated. Worst of all, is that I feel like I'm eating my way through the madness.

I appreciate your well wishes more than you know

Good luck to you.

Maybe do volunteer work while you job hunt or take a part time job doing most anything? It's easier to get a job if you already have one unfortunately.

Volunteer work is a great idea!  The sky's the limit.  Maybe even a craft store for something fun.   Today's a new day...it's YOUR day! Make it count.  Good luck to you.

Good vibes coming your way!!!! I, too, was out of work for a month earlier this year. I decided I needed "a job" not "THE career" I thought I had. It's been the best move ever! Enough $, cut my commute by 45 mins each way and flexibility. I hope you land something soon!!!!!

It sucks being unemployed I know, it took me what seemed like forever to find work. BUT you will find something!! Keep looking, knocking on doors, blowing up people's phones, network if you can. And...the volunteer thing isn't such a bad idea. The pound is a good place. All those sweet animals need love too!! Good luck and be grateful for what you have not what you have not!
