I have been unemployed for about 5 months, and people constantly ask how it’s going and if I have found anything. I know they are probably just trying to have a conversation, but it really bugs me that I have to keep saying no job yet, I’m still a failure… I kind of want to say it ***** but thanks for reminding me.
Even my husband bickers about it, and I told him it bugs me and makes me feel bad but he and all the family/friends keep mentioning it. Should I say I got a job just to shut them up? Would you be offended? I would think if I had one, I would tell them and they shouldn’t be asking!
What advice do you have for someone who is job hunting and getting discouraged because of not having found anything yet?

Thanks!
I’m currently working on getting my license to teach American History.
As we all probably know, its hard to find teaching jobs; especially for subjects such as mine. Any tips on how to find the job and be hired?
I’m sorry; I should be more specific. When I say there’s a lack of teaching jobs, I mean they are hard to get because so many people want them.
I’ve been out of work for at least 7 months. I just got this job in a warehouse. I think it really *****. But I guess what I’m getting at is does it **** because I’m use to not working or does it **** because

Okay, I’m a 20 yr old, African-American online college student, no kids, and no luck. I’m going to school for creative writing and have figured out that I will need another entry level job that can hold me until my career picks up. I have the worst luck finding good jobs. I always get stuck with the jobs nobody wants. For instance, I’m a waitress at a diner now. My friends work at banks, hotels, and my boyfriend works at one of the best hospitals in the city. My resume’ isn’t all that good considering i haven’t stayed at a job for more than 4 months and thats because the jobs i get are terrible and the pay isn’t worth the stress. I want out of these food service and petty jobs. Could anybody help me out or give me some job hunting tips. Maybe there is a website besides Monster.com that could help me.
Anything! Website, referal, company. Thank you!
