Job Hunt Day 10

Who told me that Job hunting in Vancouver was going to be easy, they should be slapped with a rubber thong. I am into my 10th day of job searching today, and still awaiting the results of my previous job interview at the Fairmont. I really want this position, because it will give me an opportunity to redeem myself in a directed job role with career prospects.

The weather is getting colder, and I feel that it will snow soon. It looks pretty grey outside, and I could probably do with some snow for something different, but it would be better if I was on a hill and had a snowboard attached to my feet. The feeling of the frigid air rushing past my face, cheeks numb and eyes watering with the chilled current passing under my goggles. Yes, I do miss that feeling, but I can assure myself It will happen when I finally get a job.

I think the Starbucks staff must know me by now as a regular cheap ass, who comes in everyday to spend hours just checking emails, and sipping slowing on my $2.00 coffee... Dark roast drip coffee. Probably the point in which I ask myself, 'what am I doing'?. drinking this rubbish, I think I may be better off drinking nescafè instead. But I put myself through this torture for the sake of free wi-fi as my house doesn't have it.

I think the biggest problem I have is this ego of mine when it comes to job hunting, what I feel I could and could not do. I am such a snob at times, thinking I am too good to do medial jobs. Well, i think I have to kick that attitude to the curb and realise that it's any money that pays the bills, and at this point, beggars can't be choosers.

This is my quote for the day, therefore I will start to apply for jobs that are available, not the ones I necessarily want to do. Is this the right attitude? I have to be confident and believe in my own potential, but its hard when you can't see that as the only thing getting you through. Man... I just need this position at the Fairmont then I will be happier... Believe young Jedi and it will happen...

AND THE JOB HUNT CONTINUES!!!
