Oooooo Lala - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

liveweyerd · 09-23-2005, 08:35 PM

I finally got 11 resumes out today. Last project was a bad experience and left me feeling like a failure, so I had been procrastinating until I could procrastinate no longer.
I have all ready gotten one email of interest, YAY-UH!!!!!
Now, I am rusty and feeling insecure, but study up, polish up and fake it until I make it. And the very best part is, it would relocate me to any of the following: WV, PA, OH, IN, IL, VA
NOT Texas where most of the hiring is going on. I did not want to go to Texas. Cross your fingers and toes! It will be a phone interview. Have to relearn the biz lingo.
Can't tell you all how much this has lifted my spirits!
Got to go soar over the US Atlas now and see where I might be moving to next! (And not even completely moved into here now!)
oh, man, hubby beat me to the atlas and he says the main office is right next to the Ohio river...man, oh, man....remember he has that house boat to finish for us to live on and that is ACCESSIBLE!!!!
Jumping for joy. And if not this one, I have 10 more out there!
This has totally jumped me out of my struggles with depression, I can see the future coming together!
Now, it says competitive rates, let's hope they are and with a decent per diem too!!!! Greedy aren't I????

I want it all!

hugs,
live

Congrats on your job search, Live. Isn't it great that when we take action, the universe rises up to meet us? Know, too, that there is a great job with your name on it. You do the work and let the universe put you where you need to be, doing what you need to be doing. If a job belongs to you, you'll get it no matter what and it'll feel right.

You've got a great attitute and are so open. I wish you success and happiness on this journey.

hugs,

phinny

Go for it Live!

That's good news and I hope you let us know how it goes with the interview.

You sound so happy!! Keep up the hard work and you'll make it sweety. I am glad this has brought you up out of your depression. Living on a houseboat. That would be so COOL!

Ladies!!!!!!!

I got a phone call this morning, interviews are by phone. Offered a postition in southern Indiana. Where I most wanted to be!!!! Where daughter and grandson are and where I call home and where I am most familiar and think I would be most successful. And where I want to build that cabin!
I accepted the position, the money is less than last project, but with all the other considerations, that is okey-dokey with me!!!
I am due to report in at Evansville IN Tues 4th at 8am. Will work as independent field agent, another big plus, offices and office politics...I hate! And in this biz, they are deadly!
I rambled all about it in What is Recovery thread celebration. If you are curious about more details.
It will mean that I will be intensively busy with little time for SR for awhile.
But....I just got everything I wanted.
Again, I humbly thank you all for the warm wishes, good vibes and positive energy.
I am very motivated, challenged and intend to compete to win.
All projects end in lay-offs. Nature of the business. From day one people are competing to get you laid off for their longevity.
I plan to not ally myself politically, produce high quality and high productivity work and compete for my own longevity.
I am rusty and will have to work extra hard to get up to speed for the position I accepted. Didn't tell them that. But I could truthfully say I have experience and knowledge of the position, just didn't tell them how long it had been since I had done that particular kind of work. So I am going to have to work extra hard...and it is a 7 day a week work week with 2 weekends off a month.
And I think my familiarity with southern Indiana and their courthouses will give me an instant edge at this first meeting.
So I am going to be very focused and if I am not able to visit SR often, know that is the reason.

But as I said in other ramble,...when I first came to SR I was a desperately unhappy mess, and I still have struggles, that's life and with my illness I have bad days and bad weeks...but SR was critical in saving my life and turning things around for me. Such that today, well, really for much of the last two years, I have been living above what I could have dreamed of when I first came here.
We will always be learning and healing, but life does change as we do.

Several people here are inspirations to me. At this point, especially 2stop. She has been steadily overcoming and is realizing her dreams. I am excited to see where they will take her.

Forgive me that I do not mention or know others as well.
I haven't been around nearly as much, but that is a needed balance so that I could progress in other areas. Blending a marriage, moving, etc etc.

warm hugs to all and many thanks,
love,
live/Tena
