Update #3 - Progress
4 years ago
General
Hello hello again. Checking in once more with another update for the month.
Some quite positive news I'm holding my breath for. I've been on medical leave from work the past week and a half which I suppose isn't ideal but it has allowed me to dig deep and pursue growth. I've been spending most of that time at home destressing, being quiet, and importantly looking for a new job. I was connected via a friend to someone who helps people get hired for a living working at a university and with their help was able to rebuild a really nice modern Resume that I have sent out to several jobs just to get out of the place I work right now.
There was also one in particular that wasn't just a lateral movement. A job I applied for that was everything I wanted, better pay, work at home, driven by helping others, and general daylight hours. I'm quite happy to be able to say that I passed all 3 days of their pre-screening, and various assessment tests and courses along with verbal over the phone replies to questions. I get to have an interview with that company Monday!
I'm super thrilled with this opportunity as it will completely change my life so many ways that I desperately need. If I get hired next week I will also receive a sign on bonus large enough to pay off a lingering debt that has been tormenting me for 7 years now which is exactly what I'll be doing with it. Not to mention the hourly pay is far above what I make right now. So please keep your paws, wings, digits, tails, etc crossed!
I'm still here, I'm still fighting, and I'm still trying to better myself and reach for a better tomorrow. I won't say it has been easy because it hasn't. But I truly have had so many open my eyes lately to all sorts of things and sit down genuinely to converse and hold me close in my moments of weakness. From best friends to strangers I've never met. I thank you deeply from the bottom of my heart because I know that such acts of kindness are not easy, It is so truly hard to reach out to someone who is shrouded and offer your hand.
So thank you, for finding me worth saving and uplifting back into a brighter day.

I'm sorry to hear that Femukki. Finding a new job is always a struggle, especially in the current world climate. I am glad you are keeping positive though, since that's always the most difficult part.

I'm trying my absolute best. For me and for all those that need me in their lives. I'm doing my best for all of that. It is incredibly difficult I won't lie. I've sorta been staring at a screen all day trying to figure out just what to do. My finances demand I make choices quickly.

Been there. I understand. All I can do is wish you all the best of luck and know that I'm hoping everything works out in the best possible way for you.
