Ok- here goes. I have never blogged before- I have always lurked. I wish I was blogging about the fact that I just won a million dollars in the lottery, or I just paid off my mortgage or that I reached my goal weight or.... you get the picture. But alas, I am blogging on an unemployment site that even though I am a faceless entity I am a part of your group. I found this site when I had reached a low point and was skimming the botton of the unnemployment cesspool. I was down for the count and wondering how many more rejections I could handle before I really slipped into the depths of depression. I guess I have not reached my saturation point as I am still here- pissing and moaning but still here. Oh I havent had a great epiphany(sp?)or secured that elusive job with all the bells and whistles. I just came to the realization that the alternative is to sit back and do nothing- and if anything- I am not a quitter. So I move forward... and you know what? this week feels better than last week. I even have a telephone interview on Friday. And.. I take one minute at a time- because that is how I am getting through this unemployment nightmare. Thanks for this site- thanks for letting me vent- thanks for confirming what I already knew- that there a lot of decent hard working people in my same situation. I will survive- you will survive-one minute at a time.
