Unemployment

March 11th 2003

I filed for unemployment today over the internet. Ugh, for some reason it makes me feel bad doing it. I’ve never been one to go on unemployment or welfare or anything like that. I like supporting myself, I like being strong and independant. And the LAST thing I EVER want ot do is be dependant on our government. *snort*

I got the phone number to my old jobs lawyer, so I’m going to call mine today and get this show on the road :) I’ve been debating on whether or not I really want my old job back. The advantages are, I know the work, and not to sound too conceited, but I know it better than most. And I get paid -halfway- decent. And I love the friends I’ve made there. I’ve built up such a relationship with Coryn that I’d trust her with my life. I really would. We’re like two peas in a pod. On the other hand, I hated the hours, and I wasn’t fond of working 6 days a week. I never got to see my sister and it took time away from Ex #4 and my friends. I want a nice 9 to 5, 5 day a week job. Instead of 6, sometimes 7 days a week, 3 to 10 and sometimes later. And then there were periods where I’d work 3 weeks in a row without having off because I’d have to fill in for people. And I’ve done 13 hour days and 26 hour weekends before. But beggers can’t be choosey, right?

    […] I never meant to hurt you Coryn, or anyone else for that matter. I’ve said in previous entries like -this- one that I’d trust you with my life, and I would. You’ve ever right to be as mad as you are, even more so. I only hope one day you can forgive me because I don’t want to lose you as a friend. […]
