bored staying at home? bored not working?

hell if i could afford it, i'd never work again. i'd find lots to do:

monday - pedicure, lunch with friends
tuesday - gym, lunch, massage
wednesday - shopping, shopping, shopping
thursday - gym, lunch, shop some more
friday - hair appointment, dinner




lmao .. I hear ya sweets. That's what I used to say.
But I guess I need a cause. I can't afford the gym anymore .. and no $$ to shop with sweets.

It's called pulling in the belt .. hello!!!

babe.. i helped write the book on your pain..
ive been out of work since july.
now i have a 2 day a week part time job that is just not cuttin it..
at least you got a severence.. that helps with the bills.. most of the rest of us didnt, so we look and look for work, dont find anything, and try to figure out wether we pay electric or water or rent this month.. cuz we can only afford one of the 3.
frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated



Yes I am very blessed. I got severence, they paid my cobra for 3 mos and I am now on unemployment.


I feel I was totally disconnected from reality and now realize how hard it is for many people.

It's a good thing .. and I'm not really complaining just kinda talkin aloud. About how good I had it and we never realize it til it's gone.

They paved paradise and put up a parkin' lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parkin' lot

They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
No, no, no, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise, and put up a parkin' lot

Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT
I don't care about spots on my apples,
Leave me the birds and the bees - please
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey now, they've paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?

Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door swing,
And a big yellow taxi took my girl away
Now don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey now now, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not, they paved paradise
They put up a parking lot
Hey hey hey, paved paradise and put up a parking lot

I don't wanna give it
Why you wanna give it
Why you wanna givin it all away
Hey, hey, hey
Now you wanna give it
I should wanna give it
Cuz you're givin it all away, no no

I don't wanna give it
Why you wanna give it
Why you wanna givin it all away
Cuz you're givin it all givin it all away yeah yeah
Cuz You're givin it all away hey, hey, hey

Hey, paved paradise, to put up a parking lot
la,la, la, la, la, la, la ,la ,la ,la ,la
Paved paradise, and put up a parking lot

I hear ya, I've been out of work since October and I'm going absolutely baty. I've got a good lead on a job with the city, but the hiring process is so slow. The position closed 2 weeks ago and they are still reviewing applications.

Yes well the economy made me more needed since I work as a Social Worker in health and benefits. We are seeing an influx of people that haven't ever recieved benefits in their life. I hope all of you find something in your area or at least a vacation spot to explore during your hiatus. Seriously, good luck to all of you. :smile:



isn't THAT the truth.. actually we don't have an unemployment office in CO but the phone lines are hundreds backed up in que the minute the lines are open in the mornings. INSANE!!

Thanks Fran .. I have a couple I've applied for that are very exciting to me. American Cancer Society and St. Judes children's .. especially the children's one. To produce events to fundraise. I could really get into that.

oh boy do I feel your pain... And I look around here and think its no different for a lot of people now... But fate was kind to me , I have a source of income and can kick back and let all this economic trouble pass. Oh and fot the lady abiout watching kids? even thats begining to pose problems for day care providers.. with families out of work they donn't need that service anymore .. It trickles down you know.



very true .. I did a thread about Circuit City laying off 30k employees when they close their doors. why? Cuz the public are not spending - we are all trying to learn to live below our means so spending is curtailed. Outcome? retailers close their doors.

*sigh*

whatcha gonna do ?? smokin

Yep before getting axed I never had time for anything. I had two jobs as well. Producer/director and MOMMY. Now just one. LOL

Actually I think the 'looking' is what's getting to me. It's BORING frustrated
