Hello all!


So, I love my mom...I really do, but I hate how much she tries to "help" me find a job sometimes.

She's on this kick right now of trying to better my life, because, well, with the economy the way it is, hers kind of went down the crapper, for the future.

So, she's constantly trying to find job paths for me. Recently it was a teacher...but now she's back on to something else. She doesn't want me to be "stuck" here...with nothing to have for retirement.

Today...she sent me this job for a local TV station here to be a reporter. That's all great...it's in my field that I went to school for. The problem...I'm not really qualified for it.

They want 3-5 years of solid journalism and I have 3-5 years of moderate/light journalism. She's just so excited about it and thinks I'd be great for it. I know the truth...I won't get this job, even if I apply. Plus, I have to have a tape to send...which I have...but it's all filled with my college stuff...and even if I added a little of my newer stuff, that's not gonna be enough to update my tape for this.

So, I guess, despite the fact that I'm not going to get this job, I should work on my resume tape tomorrow...:brick:

I just know it's all going to be futile.

That is exciting though! Might as well apply, right? You could be like Robin!

Is this something you actually WANT to do or would be interested in? Or is it your mom kinda pushing it on you? Do you want another job?

I just talked to my friend who is in the field and he says I'm not qualified either....

I'm sorry Nibbs. {{hugs}}:kiss:
(Are {{hugs}} in order? Not sure if you really wanted to do it or were just humoring your mom...)

Oh and to answer your other question...It is what I went to school for, but since I went to work for my parents, I'm not where I should be regarding it...meaning, if I'd moved down to a smaller town after college, I'd be applicable for the job, but if I started doing it now, I'd have to start really small...

so, yes, it's what I like doing, but there are aspects of my life in place that would make it not a good choice. I'd rather move down to Florida and start working there than move to a small town in Missouri

Hi Nibbs! :wave:

You never know it might work out? ((HUGS)) I know it's frustrating.
I get the exact opposite speech though from my parents of "You should stay at your job even if you don't really like it and don't really want to do that forever."

I'm sorry Nibbs. {{hugs}}:kiss:

:lol:


It's kinda both...but I'll take the ((hugs)) anyway!

I suppose that makes sense.
But you like doing what you're doing, right? And it gives you photography experience, which you seem to really have a passion for and are good at!

Aw...sweetie...((Hugs))

Just like a break up. I'm sorry you have to go through with it.

But it's for the best...I really think it is.

well... I'm beginning to have an "eh :shrug:" attitude about it. Beginning to... it comes in waves too. Sometimes I still feel terrible about it.

I still feel like I should follow up with a phone call (which will be a voice mail since I know she won't answer her phone) and maybe a written card just saying I love her and I hope we can work things out....

I'm like Nibbs though, maybe it is for the best in the long run. Eventhough it doesn't make it any easier at the moment.

I agree it's for the best also....but ((Hugs)) for Kat - I know it's hard.

Well, on this, I don't know what to tell you...

sometimes though, it's just best to let go and move on...

but you'll know what's right to do.

Hello?

 

[DisneySam]

Hi Jo! :wave:

I just read your note on Facebook. ((HUGS)) it will go okay tomorrow. My top 2 that were all the way in were really easy and healed pretty quickly. Also the next day or so I didn't have as much trouble avoiding those spots when I ate as I did the bottom (if that makes sense).

 

[Love U Disney]

Good afternoon on a glorious, sunshiny day!

Hi Abby! :wave:

 

[joanna71985]

morning eveyone!

just got back from 4 weeks of BASE jumping in Norway.

Wow! That's crazy.

Hello again...

Just going through the kids' clothes I bought....7 pr of shorts/8 shirts for Joel, and 7 pr of shorts/1 shirt for Ab....she's more picky about her choices, so I'm taking her shopping for the rest of her things this Sat. Some of this stuff looks like it has never been worn either. *so happy*

That's great Jenny!

Thanks Samie. I just wish tomorrow was over with already.
