Unemployment is a strange beast, because on the one hand at least I'm not at some fucking awful job for 45 hours a week, but on the other hand I'm almost broke and a few application steps away from food stamps. For some reason everybody feels the need to tell me things like "Well at least you're getting a lot of writing done." No, I'm not getting a lot of writing done, god damn it, unless by writing you mean filling out the same questionnaire endlessly while applying for menial jobs only to get a cryptic response in the email an hour later saying that I'm not qualified. What, I didn't "strongly agree" enough with the phrase "Stealing is always wrong, even if your family is starving?" Speaking of starving, if I have to eat another processed meat sandwich I just might take starvation boulevard instead. In conclusion, never take an adjunct position with the vague promise that there might be more work in the spring, because I bet there won't be chump.RATING: 12%
Hope something comes through for you soon man.
ReplyDeleteHang in there, Glenn.
ReplyDeleteCan you apply for unemployment?
ReplyDeleteYou could start harvesting your organs. I hear a healthy Arab liver can fetch a nice price on the international human meat market.
ReplyDeleteJust saying.
I believe in you Glenn.
ReplyDeleteThe question is, would you rhyme for food?
ReplyDeleteNow that question's just rude. $5 please.
ReplyDeleteI thought writing about current events would really bring in the readers.
You know what'll bring in the readers? A visit from the real BNL. Someone should totally myspace him that link.
ReplyDeleteFound out this weekend that my mom's losing her job soon.
ReplyDeleteHouston is NOT a place for you to be looking for jobs. I got the number for the nice lady at Legal Support Personnel if you ever want to move to New York!!
