I was in your same situation last year, leaving the classroom {teaching} and headed to parts unknown. It took forever to find a job, but I did. I'm crossing my fingers and saying a little prayer for you! ramsaygracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14451369690796528357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503230659416484951.post-86553755766625963832013-05-21T14:53:07.806-07:002013-05-21T14:53:07.806-07:00I am trying, just a bit up and down somedays.....I...I am trying, just a bit up and down somedays.....I must stay positive!Rowenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05482276716594345890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503230659416484951.post-11708666562724558942013-05-21T14:52:42.555-07:002013-05-21T14:52:42.555-07:00Thanks Simone, I never thought it would be this ha...Thanks Simone, I never thought it would be this hard to get a job!Rowenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05482276716594345890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503230659416484951.post-43525048716361540252013-05-21T14:52:07.987-07:002013-05-21T14:52:07.987-07:00Hey lovely laura!

I will try and get my head round the etsy thing though, I think I need a licence or something? I've applied for office jobs already, heard nothing back....maybe I am just being impatient! I think I will have to try something like Walmart eventually, I did retail years ago and don't really like being on my feet all day :)Rowenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05482276716594345890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503230659416484951.post-35296647456685844902013-05-21T14:49:35.104-07:002013-05-21T14:49:35.104-07:00That's juli, I hope something turns up soon :)...That's juli, I hope something turns up soon :)Rowenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05482276716594345890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503230659416484951.post-44637576433628752652013-05-21T14:49:09.324-07:002013-05-21T14:49:09.324-07:00I will do as you say and try and conquer my fear o...I will do as you say and try and conquer my fear of going freelance!

Is there an organisation in Cali that could help you set up your own business or go freelance - like Business Start-up or The Princes' Trust courses that we have here? It sucks that no-one has employed you yet, especially with your obvious talent. Have you considered working in retail or in an office or something to tide you over? Sometime, once you have a job, it is easier to get another, so you could look at applying at Walmart or somewhere to bring in some money and to avoid the dreaded 'gap' in your CV. I have my fingers crossed that you get something soon xxLaura-Hydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05673115374843752449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503230659416484951.post-17724526473843087462013-05-21T04:19:14.357-07:002013-05-21T04:19:14.357-07:00Love the photos.

Just a couple of thoughts that you might not have had but Have you looked into online work for companies? Some companies are willing to hire good people even if they live in another state. I'm guessing you've already explored that with your UK company, but if you haven't it doesn't hurt to ask. Also, I get the freelance thing because I've thought about it too with the same questions. I have often told my scared self to go and ask the questions of fellow freelancers/accountants/do Internet searches. Information always helps me get through the fear...so I tell you the same thing I tell myself :PAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12654169814923107968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503230659416484951.post-10420006086353203802013-05-20T16:34:54.600-07:002013-05-20T16:34:54.600-07:00Coffee Lady says the same things about California....Coffee Lady says the same things about California.
