unemployment

BACK AT IT AGAIN

I made it a goal of mine to write something today, and the writing sample for a freelance gig about pets isn’t hitting my creative button.

Unemployment and job searching seems to never end in my life. I have the resumes to get the interviews, but now I seem to be at a stage that I’m either too experienced or haven’t stayed at one place long enough to get people to pull the trigger.

After years of rejection and boatloads of therapy, I’ve learned how to see interviews that didn’t end in an offer as lenses into where I really want my career to go. While a brand might be one I like, the role might not be one I love. The best thing about this pandemic is the move to more online remote work, which is what my line of work should have been for a long time now.

Today’s daily meditation was about waiting…

So we wait.
