Lately

Lately I've applied to several places seeking employment.
Lately I've applied with a temp agency to help me find work.
Lately I've been getting nervous / anxious because this whole process always stresses me out.
Lately I've been lazier than usual because of it.
I just want "lately" to become "finally" so that the anxiety of it can go away.

No, they certainly aren't. What gets me is some places you have to keep onto them "I want to work there! I want to work there!" and others, if you do that, they don't want to hire you.

@Courage7 Yes, it makes me want to scream "be transparent!"
Also, please don't get me started on jobs that require a group interview. I hate those! I get so nervous.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I know it is really a nuisance that places are not commonly courteous.

Thank You!
I know I can find something and I know it will all be okay in the end. It's just all of this "What if" in between that gets to me. I can't help but want it all to be over with - yesterday.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Oh yah - those what ifs are another thing! All these things are steps to get to where you want/need to go . . . you'll get there

I once had a job interview at a call center. I have about 10 years of call center experience. The guy told me that he couldn't hire me because I "haven't worked anywhere in a year." I replied "Well, yes, that's why I'm applying for a job."
Good luck.

Yes, honestly, that's what I find so frustrating. The longer you are out of work, the harder it is to find work.

I've taken too long of a break / long enough of a break. I do know what you mean though, and I'll take time to just relax and not let anything stress me.

I hope you hear something. FYI, you could try Lionbridge if it doesn't work out..They finally sent instructions to me so I should be able to start. However, I heard people complaining on FB that they were dismissed for production quality or something..so apparently, they fire alot. Oh well, worth a shot.

I have lion bridge up on my tabs. I've had it on for awhile, but I'm not so sure if it's right for me. I've also considered printing out a "will do yard work" thing and putting it in our neighborhood's information center.
