Well, I got a job. I'm not happy. Normally, most people would think I should be ecstatic about this after being laid off for 3 months. I'm definitely not looking forward to it. I was really enjoying my "domestic engineer" status. To me, nothing makes me happier than having a clean house, a real cooked dinner every night, and the time and energy to do errands. I'm sure lots of people thought I was being lazy in the time I was laid off. I could go off an a huge tirade about this, but I shall refrain.
Another thing I'm unhappy about is the job itself. Customer Service Rep. Dear god, I am as far from a people person as one gets. Now I'm at a job where I will be on the phones all the time?? I didn't even really apply for this position. Months ago I applied for an administration position because a woman working at the company was my mother-in-law's friend. Well, I didn't get the job for that same reason. But then I get a call, go in, and am offered this job. I would be stupid not to take it. My unemployment will run out in about 3 months. Dave's will run out before that. We also have no way to be sure of what contracts his business will definitely get. Sad thing is, with this job I will make just about what I was making with my unemployment. So no matter what, these next few months are going to be very hard.
I'm just feeling very defeated right now....

Hi Miranda, Keep your chin up girl, everything happens for a reason. You just never know what is around the corner.
Hope to see you next Wednesday at the Bou. I'm the one who sat to your left next to Kristyn, and barely spoke a word on Wednesday, but I got a lot done. I am typically pretty shy when I meet new people, but it doesn’t take me long to warm up.
Hope you have a great weekend.
