Where are you??

Careerbuilder....where are you??

There was a time when careerbuilder was hot.
CareerBuilder was cold
CareerBuilder was thee place for premiere companies to post jobs for the highly educated and qualified.
the place to intimidate everyone to intimidate the "less than".

Now I see tumble weed.
and the same jobs over and over again...

Dear mysteryjobboardist,

Life is hard when you have enemies    
You know, the people who use their superior strength to over-power and intimidate their opponents who they believe are weaker.

My favorite are the ones who have relatives that own businesses and the bully has a record and no one wants to hire them so they are forced to work for their relatives who believe that their loved one "would never do anything such a thing like that!!!!"

The bully (from child-hood) sees that you may have applied for their company, then all of a sudden all hell breaks loose.
Your kids are kidnapped, the kidnappers demand child support, they have relatives that work for the government and police force and social and human services no matter what they be.

Their family torments you, burns down your homes, sues for your degrees, kills your relatives, send people to take over your jobs, and even has some relatives that are beautiful enough to seduce your significant others and there is NO RECORD OF ANY OF THAT HAPPENING!!!!

and because the governing officials, I mean, their relatives, feel that they were true victims of me,
they get paid. Thus creating the "FAMILY FORTUNE" (overandoveragain)

All of this happened and is still happening.
Be mindful of what information is submitted on-line.

pre-screening tax info applications should become illegal.

I saw the bullies while eating lunch in the homeless shelter.
Not everyone their is homeless.
Some are their to prey on the less fortunate.
Some there are scam artists themselves.

Sincerely,

Stress v.s intentional exersize

The effects of emotional stress on the heart and blood pressure are significantly different than how the heart reacts to stress caused by exercise. (DUH)

I've completed my assessments. It took three days but, it's done.

During childhood, as ambitious as a child could be, I would figure things out now matter how long it took.

for example, my sibling had a concert pianist as a friend.  We were impressed by his excellent percussionist artistry  ...indeed! (i'm trying too hard, lemme alone)

I wanted to be like him when I grew up.  He patted me on my shoulders and told me that by next year I need to learn a classical piece.

So there I went, with my index finger on our bar stool piano *plink a plink*
Drove everyone crazy, but I did it.  He was mad because it was his song and I played it publicly.

He shot me.

I forgot how to play.  *sad*

Same with windows and other applications.  I learned, I went through a traumatic experience, I forget.
So now, I must relearn.

However, the stress that my heart just went through man o man.
Here are my current stresers..

1. I'm homeless
2. I live in a place where everyone is stressed.
3. No sleep.
4. No money
5. Boyfriend stress (not good to have one while getting life together) (he must go)
6. I desperately need a job and have limited time in the shelter.
7. I'm alone in this.
8. I have a brain injury, but i'm clear to relearn
9. Everything that I eat is smothered in gravy
10. I drink soda everyday

I have to prove myself to employers and that is stress.
I have other stressers that I can't discuss, but they are really heart breaking.

Welp! ... off to get a janitorial job
I'm getting ready to loose About 190 pounds worth of dumb people.

Dear Management...

Dear Management,

Why the abusive behavior?

I remember taking a job as a...well lets just say I had files and I had stuff to do with these files.

First day on the new gig and the boss shows me the giant closet where I will be "keeping file".

She sends me in to paper...everywhere.

I say " OH YEAH, NOW WE'RE TALKIN'!!!!!

She said that I sounded like someone I knew. Ahem..sorry,

I go to start trying to figure out what color the carpet is underneath all them papers, then suddenly...
boss comes in, she hollers and screams incoherently...

I have the Charlie Brown moment where I'm startled out of my whits and throw files up in the air..papers land...so did I. I'm scared.

After resettling back to my natural heartbeat; the jokes starts flowing through my mind.

I march to her office to share the joke:  OK ma'am, I know what happened here,
the last file person you had threw everything around after your daily dose of what color does a scared person turn after screaming maniac style at them, they jumped and the papers flew.

She screamed GET OUT, YOU'RE FIRED!!!!

Why are bosses like that??

I've been a boss, and was like that because I had power, and it was done to me and it was my turn to get revenge.

I've been good boss...then something bad happens because of the haters.

What drives people to be who they are?  Is it written in the durn code??
whywhywhy?

*like, comment, share*

Oh Dear Lord!!!

Oh Dear Lord!!

Is what is said during these assessments that one must take in order to prove that one is worthy to bless YON work place with knowledge and job know-how.

Only to see that one really does not know as much as one thinks.

Only to see a recruiter or two from two potential employers sitting right across the table at the library.

I'm flattered and scared.  Some will go to great lengths to run their busyness.

Dear counselor,

My heart is beating out of my chest.
Time to relearn excel and outlook

I'm overwhelmed when I look at outlook...
to the point where I need a sedative, then I can roll over and go to sleep..

YOU WANT FRIES WITH THAT?

NEED A NEW MOP HEAD?

I'm not worthy all mighty Excel and Outlook!!
I bow down to thee under thine mighty power...

Any one got any Brain-Aid? not in the koolaid isle...may be next to the joint juice and drinkable Aloe Vera..

Anyone tutoring?


Sincerely

,

ME ...going back to the shelter with my tail between my legs now.
This is a picture of my totaled car...this is how I feel!

      Dear counselor,

The toilet paper has disappeared, Why do you ask?  The surplus van.  The white van with the handwritten sign the says "surplus".  Next time it comes around, there will be a picture.

Some places have responded, one sent an assessment

I'm scared.... but ready.  

Today's salad with mayonnaise dressing was tasty.  it had bacon, and red onions..nice combo. 

Later Strawberry shortcake.  

Getting those fresh veggies in. 

Someone once shared some advise long ago.  

He said that if I really want to eat healthy, eat fruit that peels.  don't eat veggies that come from a box, because vegetables don't come from boxes.

We are working our way to eating well again.  It takes work but its worth the potassium and vitamin C.

Munch Munch!

Wish me luck (pray for me)  on the assessments.  Office work cometh!!!!

Come-forth-now-in--the name of JESUS for all who are searching for employment!!

Peace!

Crime Alert!

Good day!

So I mentioned the surplus van.  Like clock work another body was found on the street.

Then there is the lady with the big red wig that works for the kidnappers that take peoples newborn babies.  The babies are either killed off or placed in an orphanage, they then get money to run these orphanages to torment these babies who don't have identities.

  The last lady that tried me didn't make it.

Then there's the "bus accident" where an 18 wheeler just so happens to run into a city bus injuring the people on board.  Everyone knows who's doing it, but what's being done about it?

Wish I had a more positive vibe this morning but being homeless ain't easy..

*not smiley face*

Looking for a ...

Hey good people!

Ever heard that saying "If these walls could talk"?  Downtown areas are full of stories.  If these office buildings could talk.... Lets start with the Surplus van that I've had to contact the FBI about in years past...
Or the people you see on the street who "tried you", but couldn't.

I know that i'm complaining and having flash backs but when you're unemployed, looking and running out of time... the mind tends to wander, emotions begin to flow.

On a more positive side, I ate a southern cobb salad and drank coconut water and my tummy jumped.

Yay salad!

So the skinny is, that I live in a homeless shelter while applying for jobs.
Employers are coming down to see who-in-de-world is homeless and looking for a job like thissss?

I hope that my afro, sweat pants and faded shirt impressed them.

I notice a plethora of new jobs have appeared on everyone's favorite job site indeed.com.

I like them, but no one ever calls back.
the layout is great
the site is easy to use...
but no one ever calls back

"Dear counselor"

"Dear Counselor"

While searching for employment on the job internet sites, I noticed that one had a "live chat help" feature.

So I took advantage...

I didn't need the help the site is easy to navigate.

They couldn't get me a job.  All they can do is explain the obvious.  I vented my frustrations. They gave me pointers.

I applied for jobs.

 Side bar---  Emotional eating is great especially if one shows up at the convenience store on grocery day!!!

Doughnut sticks...check
carrot cake with cream filling...check
Lemon pies...check (thanks Steven)
 and Orange juice for folic acid.

oh wait..one can't forget the Krispy creme cinnamon roll. (Thanks Quest)

Am i satisfied...yes

      but now I need a good plate of spaghetti and meal balls.... Happy breakfast everyone.

Maybe if I could review the different jobs sites without being sued that would be great!

Maybe I shouldn't con IT help into giving free emotional counseling sessions....

Hello All!!

Searching for a new place to call job?  Tired of your current employed relationship and wish to find a new master to serve; for pay?  I am/ was while not gainfully but reward-fully employed.  Now i'm just unemployed...and looking.

Innovative masterminds have created an easier way to find employment.
The internet Job Board!!!!!!

Many have found great jobs there.  While those not so lucky like myself find their resumes and applications among the 330+ other applicants denied or not paid attention to.

You kinda have to wonder, do they see me? Can they hear my cry for job?

If you're a kind heart-ed soul, you'd have to wonder how over whelmed a hiring manager must feel having to find the right candidate to fill their positions.  Not only are the hiring managers searching through their apps online but, think about those that actually apply directly.

My favorite are the repeat offenders that post the same position over and over again for months on end.  I'm thinking that I'm qualified....and hire-able.

Do they??
