I knit, therefore I am.
New job is jobbing along. More salesey than I want, but the pay is good. I’m fairly autonomous, solo a lot. Management is decent. And there’s lots of support. Yay Teams, I guess.

If things don’t go completely sideways, I think I’ll stay a while. But if the job with the union office comes through? 🏃‍♀️

TW: cancer, death

No o other void to scream into, my sister follows me everywhere else.

Dad’s cancer has spread to the bones. Hďe’s beer&cigarettes medicating. And guilting my sister to come live&die at her house. JFC man, her husband died only 18mo ago. No. Just stop! We can’t be your keepers!

Just crying about it, because dumping on my partner is rude.

6 months. 23 job applications acknowledged received, 6 more pending. 16 interviews. 10 confirmed rejections.

I’m smart, well-spoken, educated, and affordable. Yet unhireable. I can’t even get my minimum wage jkauto parts store job back.

Having struck out for almost 6 months in the real world, I started looking at state employment. I’m not even qualified to sort mail or answer a phone for the state. FML.

Why am I unhireable? It’s not my fucking fault I’m unemployed, the office closed.

13 interviews: 9 rejections, 2 ghostings. 8 more no response.

I’m the perfect fit for 2 of the 11, ready to dive in with just a crash course in policy. I’m better with the mngt software than the office mgr.

WTF?

8 job interviews in 4 months.

4 outright rejections.

1 utterly unprofessional ghosting, they won’t return emails or calls.

2 that I don’t feel good about at all.

1 that I’m the 100% right person for. They haven’t called.

Obsessively checking my email for the rejection letter from interview #4. Come on, just crush my soul already.

Part 2 of 2

Ooh, Rage Against the Machine, loud. Across the intersection, state trooper head tilted, confused. I flip my shades up as he drives by slowly. It clicks at “are the same that burn crosses” The glare!

Fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me! And then I’m gone before he can turn around.

Part 1 of 2

Sometimes, I unintentionally disturb shit. Sometimes, it even needs disturbing. Sometimes, I’m lucky not to get burned.

I’m sitting at a traffic light, windows down system up(❤️Eminem). I give no fucks anymore, if I want to sing with the radio, I do.

By 9:30, I was done with today. Why can’t I just quit and go back to bed?

People are strange. There are almost a dozen empty, pull through parking spots. Some weirdo pulls in to park behind me.

Why would you park so you need to back out? I genuinely do not understand.

I’m all emotional over a phone. My trusty iPhone SE was only 2 1/2, but behaving badly, needing regular force-reboots because she got stuck on stupid. An iPhone 15pro was available in the house so I upgraded. I worked so hard to buy my little SE. I hugged her and squeezed her and called her George.

So, it was anxiety, stress, and covid. Then a fuck-off-loser email from another interview. And now paxlovid rebound.

Woo! I have a resting heart rate under 90 for the first time in hours. Anxiety and stress are bitches. I got the fuck-you-loser email about a job interview. And my sister walked off the job I helped her get at the restaurant where one of my partners is the chef.
