Job Search DAY...sucks

So today, I'm spending more time looking for a job than being a good dad. I've been out of work since November, and if your a dad like me, it's an emotional roller coaster. Ive come to terms in this economy that finding a GOOD job will take some time.

Its real hard and I'm really sick and tired of talking to head hunters! Seriously, I really wish there was a law against these people "faking the funk" posting bogus job listings on Monster and HotJobs just so they can acquire your personal information attached in your resume. I'd say more than 65% of job site listing are not even real. Which makes our job search even more fun! Sure, there are other sites we can look and honestly, If we know about them, so do the head hunters and these websites have already been shazammed.

Ive been on over 75 interviews since November and I will not go work for a company I don't like OR Do I just take the job to have a job? The million dollar question. Truth is that I'm unable to do later, its not me. I'm smarter than that and the companies that are offering jobs, know people, especially dad's who were in good positions, making good money and have a history of success they (the hiring company) thinks they can now get us for 50% off our desired salary price.

I say that we don't fall for this trickery. We'll be smarter than that and figure something out. Maybe the rat race is not a race we want to be in after all. Maybe this time at home is showing us the importance of something greater and much bigger then ourselves. For the very first time in my life, I'm happier than I have ever been! I don't think I'm ready to cash in on this happiness for a job and a position I don't want.

For now, I continue to look, continue to reinvent myself and continue to be a good stay at home dad.

I'm taking my kid for a walk around the block today! Because I can...
