I do a lot of jobhunting online, I have profiles at Monster.com (they keep telling me about CAD operator positions and freeway engineering, like a community college graphic design degree means I have a clue about those) and snagajob.com which is pretty much straight out of high school level jobs. Mostly what I qualify for is retail, because I've done a lot of retail, and they're really picky about hiring these days. We still have pancake stuff. ;) We've been using it though. The nuts are gone. We'll be okay I think, Bridgie's parents will help and we'll manage. Rent and bills are a bigger worry than food. I don't worry about starving, I do worry about the heat or phone getting shut off, because we've had both happen before. Fortunately it was always mix-ups, but still. It drives me a little nuts I hear all this talk about job creation and it all seems to be in construction. Because I seriously doubt either of us could do construction, thank you. What construction company would hire young women? With no experience? And white-collar degrees.
