Stalker

I take pride in the fact that I'm extremely persistent .... The squeaky wheel gets the grease, right!? What I find most frustrating, however, is how very little common courtesy most people have. A response would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
I've been without a stable job for slightly over 6 months now and I've been actively searching. Persistence is key and I've definitely got that down. I'm not looking for just any old job and that might be a bit of the problem. I'm not the kind of girl to settle for just anything. I've had plenty of opportunities come my way, the trouble is, they're not for pay. I understand I'd gain experience, it's a networking opportunity, etc...etc.... But that doesn't pay the bills, dress me in fabulous clothes or cover the cost of a little bubbly now and then.... does it
I've had a couple of interviews, a few photo shoots, a temporary job as server/hostess/food runner....etc, at a mom and pop restaurant and have applied to a countless number of jobs in the last 6 months. I'm rather exhausted from it all. Searching for a job is a full time job in itself. Thankfully, I've done a good job at making sure I continue to go to the gym. It's about all I can do these days not to go crazy.

  1. "does it" at the end of the second paragraph should have a question mark after it.

    Don't worry... the right job will find you, and you'll either be totally happy, or at least happy enough to not want to kill everybody you work with, because it pays well enough, and is the kind of work you want to do. Fingers crossed for the "totally happy" scenario, and not the "happy enough to not want to kill everybody" scenario.
