Find Char a job....
It seems like the whole job search process is like another full time job in itself. It requires searching for the job, then applying for it, and then hoping and praying they like how you look on paper, to call you in and see just how fabulous you are in person. It is at times pretty tiresome, especially with over 10 resumes and cover letters sent out. Please note that I am not complaining, just stating a fact.
If only it were easier and people or companies out there would just figure it out and realize that I would make a great employee. Come on I am well travelled, love to laugh and smile, speak 4 languages, only one of which I can speak fluently, but who needs to tell them that, two years of teaching English to highschool kids in Japan, and survived...
and gosh darn it I have a 4 year degree and lets not forget a certificate both of which cost me a lot of money and now have a student loan that is the GNP of a small third world country. Come on, with those qualifications, who wouldn't want me.
Job oh job, job meaning the non retail kind...where art thou?

Been thinking....
Yeah, yeah, I know what some of you are saying to yourself...thinking...Yeah right...Char...Never.....
Well FYI, I have been thinking about a lot of things since my return home, yup you have a lot of time on your hands when are do not work full time. Well, it has occurred to me that I am a complainer...Yup...I complain about everything....First I complained when I was in Japan and now I complain that I am not in Japan. Man, have I always been a complainer or has this been a recent phenomenon?
Well, I have decided to do less complaining and suck it up. After seeing the poverty in Nepal, I have no right to complain about anything at all. From here on in, I am going to be thankful for things and try to focus on just how lucky I am. Sometimes we forget about all that we have been given and just how good we really have it. Even for retail hell and the BAY....Well, that one will take a little more time to be thankful for....Working up to that ....Thankful for my great co-workers who at least make working there a little more bearable...That is a start, I guess.
