The Job Search

It appears that calls for interviews on my job search have all but dried up. And while I have kicked it up a notch, the phone is not particularly ringing. I received a phone call from one company that left a message for me that I interviewed with before. When I called them back, I got voice mail. I have left them 3 voice mails at this point between yesterday and today, but so far, no avail. I suppose I will call them one more time on Thursday if I do not hear from them at all.

Then there is the retail applications. These are actually much more involved than applying for an office position as they ask you personality questions. Do I answer them right? Am I incriminating myself? What I do know is that I need to be honest on these applications. If that means that I do not get the job as a result, then it was not God's will for me.

I know that the job market is tough, but this is crazy! I heard that employers are actually discriminating against those who have not worked 6 months or more. What happens if you lost a job through no fault of your own, or you just didn't get along well with your last boss? Just doesn't seem fair to me. :(

I will say this, for better or for worse, I am much more likely to just do whatever a boss tells me to do in the future, no matter how unreasonable I might find it to be. The only thing is I've done that before, but only to lose respect of employers, so I dunno.
