In which week 5 of my unemployment marks the beginning of the ass kicking.
It’s 4:33 on Friday. It’s been a week since the killer interview, and I haven’t heard anything back. This probably means that they’re not going to hire me.
In order to (legally) receive UI benefits, I must apply for three jobs each week. I ran out of local jobs I’m actually interested in and/or qualified for the week before last. There is literally nothing left in my field in the area for me to apply for.
This week I’m applying for a P/T hardware job installing fans and RAM and crap, and a full time job at Staples selling electronics and installing fans and RAM and crap, and I’ve also applied for something remote in order to fill my quota.
Serves me right, admitting to the universe that I was being passive. Now it’s gonna kick my ass and make me decide what I actually want to be doing.

5 weeks?? Man, time flies.
Apply for anything you don’t want that you are sure you will not get so you can fulfill your requirements. Apply like hell for everything you want.
The local paper has about ten ads in it. I’ma run out of things to apply for! Eek! -m
You will find your spot! The universe loves you!
Thank you! -m
