I use to love my job. I loved the people I worked with, I made enough to pay my bills, save a little and still be able to spend a little on things I wanted, but most importantly I actually loved my work. The company I was working for ended up closing down last year. It took me over 7 months just to find another job, but I'm miserable. I hate what I'm doing and the pay is awful. I cant pay my bills with what I'm making, so every month i have to take a huge ammount of money out of my savings. I am so depressed I feel like I'm wasting my time going to work. I keep looking for another job but I cant find anything. How do you go to work everyday knowing you still wont male enough to pay your bills?

I turn in applications all the time to the companies that I really want to work for. I also can find rest in the fact that what ever it is I am doing I do it well and so it will look good on a resume and I am gaining references. It is hard to know that despite your hard work it will not be enough, but keep on trucking, it will get easier and eventually you will get a call for another job. Put you resume up online, that might work.
