So, I've been laid off for over 6 months now.... Finally, I'm getting bored, I think. Probably only of the constant day-to-day of "what do I do now?". I own a small business, so I have things to do... and I've really been amping up my listing/marketing/blogging/all that other business-y stuff...
The problem is my lack of human interaction, I reckon. Talking to people on facebook, yahoo messenger and twitter are NOT the same as face-to-face chatting with touch-able people. (Not that I'd touch people, but the option is there. I'm just not touchy-feely.)
I need a job outside of the house....
I went to a place to fill out an application today at a garden/flower place. I was one of many. There were two guys, maybe a little older than me, and an older lady. Somebody had just left too. In my brain, I'm going- "Ok, wow, this sucks. I'm just one-of-many unemployed persons. crap." Then I'm thinking, maybe just maybe I can find two seconds to schmooze this dude into thinking I'm the best...
He asked me two questions- "Do you have any disabilities?" and "Do you smoke?"
There was not much time for schmoozing and thus impressing the man with my awesomeness.
Now I wait.
I'll work on my business stuff, but I really need to get out of this house more.
Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI hope things get better. Ben was recently laid off and it really stinks. At least he has me and Garrett keeping him busy.
