You might be unemployed if...

I am sure most of you see heard the "You might be a redneck if" jokes, well this is my unemployed version. I was not planning on being out of work long enough to actually blog about it but here we are. I am currently nursing my latest wound of being told I was "over qualified" for a position that was perfect for me. I'll save you my rant about all the messed up reasons I didn't get a second interview, you are welcome. But I am moving on and trying to keep my head up. Humor tends to be a good way to forget your troubles so here is my attempt...

You might be unemployed if any of these pertain to you...

You have ever said the phrase "those are my nice sweat pants."

It has been 2 days and you realized that you haven't showered.

You have no idea what the date is.

You have a hard time keeping a straight face when someone asks if you are busy on Tuesday.

The thought of not working...ever again...has crossed your mind a few times

There is a period of grief followed by the finishing of each TV series you watch on Netflix.

Your dog has become your therapist, career consultant, personal trainer, napping partner and most of all the only one who could care less if you have a job or not.

This is my dog, Drew, helping me find jobs. 

I hope this made you smile today. Today is "bounce back" day where I put on some lipstick and sunglasses and not sit in the corner and sulk. I must keep moving forward.

I am off to see my CHO (Chief Happiness Officer) Miss Cambria Dawn...my beautiful niece.
