he also said:
"I feel so desperate for work yet I still wonder why I'm finding it so difficult to get any???"
And the first reply in this thread, my reply, addressed exactly that question.

This is the internet. Specifically, a forum for discussion. Other people posted in this thread with unemployment problems of their own. Once they did that, it no longer became "about him".

Heheheheh....
Just keep looking for employment and start considering options you might not have before (without going into the realm of illegality, mind you) ... I am sure something will turn up for you.
Best of luck. :)

Just that little paragraph there helped.
I'm pretty sure if I fully explained my situation you guys would then understand but at the moment it's a case of overcoming a brickwall followed by a mountain. I'm sorry for snapping, it's just such a stressful time right now.

Odds are he's not going to be using this forum as a guide to finding employment. My suggestion from the beginning was that you try to be more receptive. That is all. It's not that I thought you gave bad advice or anything...
Geez, four posts in this forum and I'm already involved in a spat. I'm sorry relic, can we be friends? I'll give you the last word (as far as our dialogue is concerned).

I feel for ya man.I was having the same problems up until a few weeks ago.
I was unemployed off and on for about 6 months.From Sept to Oct.Then Jan-April.
It sucked. Florida is really bad right now for jobs.I think we have one of the highest
unemployments rates right now.I went to every cheese job i could find and couldnt
get work.Applied to every job in my field i could find and no luck.Unfortunatly
my field is a little odd cause its pretty small and Florida has a ton of competition down
here.I happened to apply for a job and finally getting a call back.Luckly thanks to my
expirience,prepairedness and decent talking skills i got the job.I feel pretty lucky cause
i too was almost out of money and at my wits end.Luckly i have good friends/family who
helped keep me afloat during my unemployment.I didnt get the money i desired but i have
40 hours a week,full benefits(which are pretty killer actually),yearly decent raises and the
job is as secure as one can be these days.i know the company is not going anywhere and
unless i really screw up my position should be fine.Yea i had to make some compromises but
thats life.
I did run into something similer.I couldnt take a part time job because i would lose money
doing so.Between the Student loan break i got,unemployment checks and the additional
costs of going back and forth to would it would not have been worth it.So i can understand
the need of getting a full time job.
Good Luck!
