It has been a long time since I have posted. I apologize. It has been very difficult for me. The job that was supposed to go permanent was a victim of the budget cuts by both federal and state governments. The grant that supported about 75% of their income was cut by 45%. Since my last day with them (June 24th):
· I broke 2 teeth on the way home that day
· I have worked 5 days in temporary assignments
· I have been sending out an average of 10-12 resumes/applications per day
· I have gone to every job fair I have heard about and only gotten 2 interviews
This is a sad commentary on the economy and how our “recovery” is progressing.
I’m sad to say that depression has been lurking behind every corner as I see the slower season upon us for my own products. I am also out of plastic for cutting, out of the 2 most popular sizes, and out of the means to get more plastic and cuttings. I have been feeling like the budget cuts also caused fate to turn off the light at the end of the tunnel. Please pray it gets turned back on.
