| Looking for a job suuuuuuuuucks Uggggh it is soooooo frustrating!!! I found the perfect job but lost it due to something I cant control. And im trying to convince myself that "Everything happens for a reason" But I am really getttttttting frustrated now. Either I am OVER qualified for something or they just aren't paying enough! How can they expect someone to live on $10/hour?? In NY???? It's not like I don't have skills and certifications, I do....I dunno anymore. Just needed to vent..... |

| I'm on a job hunt too, and it is *no* fun at all. I really want a receptionist job somewhere for now, like at a dr office or somewhere like that and apparently in my small town, it's impossible to find these jobs!! |

| I would think 10 an hour in NYC would put you on the poverty level.

| I know how you feel. I recently graduated from USF with a Psych degree and when I was looking for a job in my major, I was either over qualified or under qualified. Or they just weren't paying enough. I got offered like $26,000 a year for a job that I needed a degree for. I said no thanks. And now I'm a BA and I didn't even need my degree for this job. lol. But at least I'm getting experience, getting paid well (I get to negotiate for a raise at the end of 3 months... in November). I might end up going back to school to get my masters... but this time I'm going to be smart and get my masters in business and not psych. lol *Good luck with the job hunting! You should also checkout craigslist (If you haven't already), because i know they have a ton of jobs listed in NY. That's how I found mine. If you need any tips or if you just feel like venting, fell free to PM me.

| The only problem with that is if she takes the $10/hr job, which is probably a 9-5 job, the she won't have time to look for another one, because companies schedule interviews during that time. And if she takes off work to go to the interview, she'll loose that job, because with most jobs you can't take a day off until at least 3 months.

LOL. I think you're right. I'm in Tampa, FL and $10/hr would have me living in the ghetto or sharing an apartment with 5 other people. lol.
