My current conundrum

Sep 13, 2007 19:08

I graduated in May full of hopes and dreams, and sure that I would find a teaching job by the time school started in August. Summer came and went without even one interview for a teaching job. Instead, I got a job at Elder-Beerman in June as a temporary summer job, just until I found something else. After Comic-Con, I started applying to other jobs ( Read more... )

I'd put in my two weeks ASAP, start planning my move to Cbus, and look for temp work/department store work in Cbus ASAP.

But you're talking to "hey-I'm-moving-to-Ohio-cya!" lass here, so. I'm all about jumping in and sorting out the details later. I think the tension of changing your life will force you to make a decision you're hesitant about ... staying where you are fosters complacency and complacency is the enemy!

Also, you have a net if things turn out badly -- which is *very* unlikely. I doubt Neal would let you twist in the wind financially and you know I got your back, BFF. ;)

Long hours on feet in dress shoes is never good. I'm a "go with your instinct" kind of person. It seems like either way you're taking a chance, so why not go with the one that puts you closer to Neal (I'm assuming that's an important factor)? Honestly, in these situations I've been known to pull out a tarot deck not because I believe in that sort of thing, but because the way you personally react and interpret the cards can reveal a lot about your deeper feelings toward a situation. Yay projection exercises! Hopefully, someone else will be able to give you better advice, but just in case they don't: http://www.llewellyn.com/free/tarot.php

Best of luck!

YOu have to go with the "instinct" that's telling you...cause it will guide you in the right direcion...Hang in there about a teaching job, i have a friend who's going through the same thing..Just remember! DON'T GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAM!!!! cause those who are patient will get what they want!

HUGS/Miss ya!

Put in your two weeks and move your butt to Columbus already!

Sometimes you just have to cross your fingers and go with your heart. That's what me and Nick did. Yeah, he doesn't have a job yet. But he has a guaranteed offer from Schneider once he gets his Ohio driver's license, and he's also looking into several other options as well. I know in my heart it will all work out in the end, because for me, it always does because I have faith that it will. So just have faith that it will all work out, and take the plunge. :)
