Just Pass Me By

Friday night on my way to meet my husband I got a call from work. You know I just have one question lately that been going through my mind. Why is it the jobs I do not like they want to keep me and the jobs I like they seem to downsides leaving me to have to find a new job. The last couple of weeks I have worked with a company, the people where great, but the job well, lets just say I would much rahter do something else. Last week I only worked 9 hours and didn’t know if they would have me back next week or not, Friday night I got the call tell me that they no longer needed the service I was providing. In away I am happy, and then on the other hand I can’t help but wonder where well my money come from for college shortful, credit card, electric, water and all those other fun bills I am face with monthly. I am sorry, but on the hand I am glad it’s over because hopefully I can find a job with more hours, so I can get back into college, now since hubby is working a permanent job it allows me to go back to school.
I want to get my degree finish, because I feel it would help me land more jobs, I have been to college twice and I know what it looks like on my resume I start things with no intention of completing what I started. That is not the problem, the problem is staying employed. I seem to pick jobs that either go out of business, are very bad for me, downsizing… When I work I give my best, and I work hard. If I know exactly what I am doing normally I am a fast worker, if I don’t know what I am doing I slow down. My biggest shortful on jobs with enbound telephone work I tend to be to nice and end up being sucked into conversations. This isn’t always a bad trait but it not always a good trait.I always hear how good I done but sometimes I wonder if I am doing so well why can’t we get me somewhere that won’t get raid of me after five minutes.
I have been looking for a job, and the job market isn’t that great, or most of them hire employees through temp companies. Temp companies are great ideas, because if the employee don’t like the person they send they don’t have to tell the person, and face them. It is great for those of us who work for the temp company because if we don’t like a company, we can ask to be replaced or if their is a problem at the company then we can report it to the temp company and not deal with management at the company. Normally I am honest with my clients, if I feel uncomfortable I am willing to say so to them, but there has been a few companies I seriously did not want to talk to management because they where some of the ones I was having issues with and didn’t feel exactly safe saying something.
I will probably get up tomorrow early to retake all the testing from one of my temp companies, it been about a year since I done it. Maybe redoing the testing will help them find me something better, out there.Then I will come home and start looking for some companies on line, see if anyone hiring directly. If I can avoid using gas it be a good thing, since my gas has to last me until I get paid again. Maybe I will be able to find a job with good benefits that includes home insurance never know.
