demoralized....*sob*

I am sick of applying and searching for jobs....

I have sent off countless copies of my resume and had not one reply.

Nothing from the hospitals ( and I thought they were under- staffed)
Nothing from the larger businesses in the area.
Nothing from all the Craig's List postings I have replied to.
I even applied to Wallgreens ( with heavy heart)

Nobody wants me, even WP is tiring of supporting me.

I really really really really do not want to work in retail, I don't think I could stomach it anymore.

All I want is A: a little office job.
I can type (quite fast )-albeit with two and a half fingers.
I can be polite & discreet.
I can navigate myself around most MS office programs without too much trouble.
I can answer the phone, use a PC without crashing it, file, be generally organized,make & maintain a website, use photoshop AND make coffee if required.


Or B: A hospital tech job ( IE: not mopping up vomit & urine)
Again...
I can be polite and full of customer service.
I can use a computer
blah blah blah.
Anyway you get my general drift.

* If any perspective employers out there are reading this in the St Charles/W County area...cause you never know who's looking....

I am a very good time keeper, rarely take time off sick and am very loyal & dedicated.


Of course on the optimistic side, perhaps companies are just gearing down for Christmas... Right?


[/Rant]


Afterthought: I have nothing against anyone who works in Retail and I am not being a snob, its just that was the old me and I don"t want to go backwards.

If that makes sense ?

I thought I better....

do some sort of blog.

I haven't been around for a while, did you miss me ?

Firstly WP has spent a few days in hospital so I was at his bedside like the dutiful wife I am. He's home now (well at work at the moment) and feeling a lot better.

And so to the rant....

On his discharge notes there was a medication listed that he was to take every night. Great! No prescription, or medication for that night, just a note to get the pharmacist to call this certain DR(a cover DR) for the directions...

So the next morning I went to Walgreen's to get them to call which she did. Five O'clock I decided to call Walgreen's to ask if it was ready. No, the Dr had not bothered to call in, she suggested I call the hospital which I did.

They put me thought to the nurses station , who could not help me, firstly because they no longer had the notes and secondly that had never heard of this DR. They told me to call the DR's page number direct.

So I did.

Several minutes on hold listening to terrible music...

Finally this woman answers, I was polite, I explained the situation.

Woman" This number is for medical emergencies only"

Me" Oh, well this is the number listed on the discharge paper"

Woman snotty voice" Well DR Cannotbebothered has been on call all weekend"

(Like this is my problem how? maybe if the DR had bothered to stop and write a prescription I would not have to bother anyone)

Me (again) " This is the number on the notes and Walgreen's have already called this morning Re this matter"

Woman" The Dr will get to it"

Me (pissed off by this time) " Well Walgreen's close at 6 so its a bit late in the day now.
I hung up by this time if the woman had been in sight I would have probably grabber her by the throat and throttled her....

Day 2 without the required medication...

I go to Walgreen's again to get them to call, which they do in my presence.
(Of course its Labour day so again they are closing early)

5 o'clock and still no call from DR Cannotbebothered, of course I am not surprised in the slightest.

Tuesday: Day 3 without medication...

I call WP's regular Dr and have the medication within 3 hours.

Blasted Dr's!

For those of you who are interested,the stain came out of the carpet, I think because I acted fast. Firstly I mopped up the excess and then scrubbed the are with warm water and laundry detergent.


So I have done none of my X stitch, hardly any Gym(I went this morning).

I haven't heard anything from immigration, which is seriously stressing me out. I called the bank the other day to see if they had cashed the checks. No. This managed to stress me out more, to the point I am waking up with my teeth hurting from clenching my jaw in my sleep ( I do that when stressed out).

Oh joy.

Thats about it I think.
