Websites browsed:          Several

Jobs applied form:           1

Leads:                              2

Job deadlines:                  About 4

Goodies eaten:                 low calorie chocolate dessert oh yea!

Mood:                              Apprehensive, pensive and weary but 

                                         worryingly, I'm not nervous.

Enthusiasm:                     A little low, this job hunting is not all it's

                                         cracked up to be.

Before I go any further I'd like to offer some advice. If you are in a job that is only tolerable and it does not make you ill, and you've worked over half your life.  Please stay put!

Job hunting is an occupation in its own right, with very little rewards.

In order to get my stamp paid I have to apply for jobs that I would not normally apply for; and ones that are really not suitable for me. This can be a little disheartening.

Plus, when I do get interviews, I'm starting to feel that the outcome is a foregone conclusion and I really haven't been looking for work long enough to feel this way. I feel a little jaded. Which is surprising, seeing that I have an interview tomorrow and Wednesday.

Of course, I will give one hundred and ten percent tomorrow, I always do. In the small hope that they may see that I'm a great person and a hard worker. lol

But there is one thing I like about going for an interview in a school. If you don't hear anything at the end of the day, you haven't got the job. 

Now for the big question, despite everything I've written above, knowing what I know now, would I still have taken voluntary redundancy?

You bet I would have!

So what's next?

An interview in the morning and then going to treat myself to a coffee and do some food shopping. Oh yea! That's the way my life rolls. lol
