Job Hunting...

Man, you know, job hunting stinks! Especially when you NEED a job. Terra and I are having bunches of fun applying at different places, for different types of positions. The bad part is that most of these places were on vacation over Christmas, and so they have a bit of catching up to do now, and they're pretty slow about getting back with you. I have had fun applying online - that's been neat, just sitting at home and filling out forms over the internet. But it's kinda rough when you spend an hour or more filling out these online applications, and then after you send it in you get an email saying something along the lines of, "Don't call us, we'll call you." So you just spend a lot of time sitting around waiting for your phone to ring.

But yesterday was encouraging, I finally got a call back on a job. But at the end of the conversation I found out that the person I was talking to was just calling to confirm some information before she passed it along to the Hiring Manager. So I gotta wait for my name to process through another pile of applicants, and pray that some guy who's never met me will find my application more appealing than the others competing for his attention.

I guess that's where trusting God comes in. ;-)

Yeah, we're doing quite a bit of praying about this job thing - not only that we get jobs, but that we'll be able to enjoy them as well.
