Job hunting sucks

[midnight armadillo]

I had a sweet part-time telecommuting programming gig that was supplementing our regular income with enough cash to get us out of debt in 6 more months, except for student loans. Then they lost their biggest client and software partner in the same week, and us part-timers were laid off while they struggled to survive.

So now I pound the pavement (er, Craig's List, amongst other web sites) nightly looking for more work, in the throes of a recession. I have a small job lined up for May.

We were so close to getting out from under the debt monster - credit card debt left over from medical problems like 6 years ago. 6 more months and we would have made it!!!

At least I still have my day job, even if DoD work is killing my soul. My sympathies to those DUers who are looking for work under more dire circumstances.

working is looking for work.
