What is Your Employment Situation?

[JDeere]

Unemployed/job hunting again.

It is way tough when you don't have all the experience or education needed for certain jobs, I miss the days where they would train you and train you good.

Good luck on the search I hope you find a job soon.

I agree back then was probably easier to find a job. I sometimes wished I was born at the "right time" haha.

I took a leave of absence from my Dept Head/English teaching job back in Canada until January. I am spending four weeks travelling in Europe (Netherlands, London, Portugal) and then have a two month contract teaching in Germany beginning in mid October.

It seems like every ten years, I force myself to get out of my 'comfort zone'. I hope I learn a lot from my experiences and grow as an educator and person.

I'm just curious if anyone on here has their own or knows someone who has their own cleaning business? I have been talking to a family friend who used to clean both for a company and privately before retiring due to illness. I want to get different ideas/opinions about it.

I've held several roles on the campus where I work.... the latest role I've only been in for about 2 and a half months. But I've had my eye on another position, with better pay and benefits, so I applied for it today. If I'm recruited into this new role, I'll start my new job, sometime after the first of December. I'm filled with excitement and a bit anxious, but I'll know soon if I go on board in my new role.

I did housekeeping when I was younger first through agencies and later for myself. When I began I kept the full time job I had and only worked as a housekeeper on my days off to see if I would like it well enough, and they could keep me busy enough, for me to quit my full time job. With work I always like to test the waters, try something out first before quitting my steady job and on a wing and a prayer immediately full force flinging myself into something new. If you want to know anything more about my experience with it, have any questions or anything you can PM me any time. Good luck with whatever you decide.
