No, I am not unemployed. I was working two jobs to make ends meet. I worked nights at one and days at the other. My hours changed at one of the jobs so I had to quit that one. I'm not unemployed.

Get your facts straight or ask before you post.

To 33girl. You are absolutely right. She is always going to be making more than me. That's not my concern. My concern is I'm not happy with my job. I deliver pizza, and it's quite embarrassing when we get together with her family and their friends. When we get around the dinner table they'll ask about her job, which gets talked about for about 20 minutes, then they get to me and say so what do you do?

"I'm in transportation"

Seriously though, tell them what your major was and that while you're looking for a job in your field, you're doing whatever it takes to pay the bills. There is nothing to be ashamed of. Besides, they may have connections. If you don't advertise that you're looking for a job, you won't find one.

lol yeah, I guess I could say I'm in transportation, but they would say what do you transport?

Actually, I just got off work. But yeah, that's pretty much what I do say. I let them know what I want to go into and that this is just what I'm doing to pay the bills until something comes up.

I have a kid and a fiance who's a doctor and that's what makes me feel ashamed. I need to find another 2nd job though, because when I had two jobs, things were a lot easier when it came to paying the bills. Plus I have student loans to pay back. My fiance has been helping though. She wants me to find something in my field as bad as I do.

My God, how was I supposed to know you had another job?! I thought you just had the pizza job. You said it yourself. You didn't mention a 2nd job anywhere!!!

If you want people to get their facts straight, maybe YOU should have them straight first.

Ya know, christiangirl I don't feel bad, nor do I care because I was called a troll, but yet experienced greekchatters took LowLite's side on another thread, a dumbass who has only 14 posts. And on top of that, instead of looking for an effing job, he post that he now works for Wendy's.

I have way more board experience than you. I haven't posted on GC in a while, like years a while. What's worng with having 14 posts? You had 14 posts at one time, so what's the big deal? And I have been looking for jobs. Mind your own business.

Yes, I did, but she didn't have to post it all over the board telling people I was unemployed. And maybe you need to mind your own business.
