    Hey guys, where is everyone? I am tired this morning and want to be in my room reading a book instead of out here in the mix of things...
    Hope all is well. Today is a day where I will be getting out my joke book to cheer me and all these little stinkers up. They love it when I do it... MORNING TO EVERYONE! :eek:

    I knew you would be so happy... I am having a problem keeping my girl home, everyone wants a piece of her and I miss her terribly. It sure is good for her to be a big girl though. She has made great friends with some of the elders around here by helping them and she has also made some good money... How are you Nowwhat? I haven't had much time to get to the recipe post have you?

    I actually just posted a question for ideas with Pork chops. I need some new stuff in the kitchen to dazzle the family!

    Things are good here! I am on a job hunt. My husband thinks it is time for me to re-enter the workforce. I guess he is right. Now that she is in school full time - my days get kind of boring. He thinks it would do me good to get out and talk to adults and challenge my brain a little!

    I agree. I am going to be in the same boat. I hate t say it but it does feel good to talk to people our own age and I am going to try and find something so I can be back when school is over. I want to try and have a snack ready and help with any homework that needs to be done... Getting a little job will be great. What do you think you want to do?

    Well, I don't know. At this point, I am open to anything. I guess secretarial stuff or Administrative. That is really my background.
    I am learning, though, that there isn't a big market for people who have been out of the workforce for 7 years. I have had a couple good (or so I thought) interviews, but no call backs. I don't get it. I would hire me!

    So would I. I am thinking food industries. I made lot's as a waitress and I love people. I got really depressed with my one year of payroll and accounts receivables... I love hanging out and moving around with people... I need to be completely busy.

    I have often thought about waitressing. But, I know I would drop food all over people, get the orders wrong and just be fired after one night. I just can't take that kind of disappointment! Plus, I have a low tolerance for people. :)
    I actually do well at a desk, in front of a computer. Facts and figures really challenge me. I think I would be perfect for the IRS! :)

    My suggestion for those out of the workplace for a while is to volunteer.

    It shows you can keep to a schedule, can prioritize, and that you're willing to work.

    The fear from employers when you've been out that long is that you won't be able to readjust to the work world, and that they'll spend the time and money training you only to have you break under the stress or whatever and quit. Or you'll forget what office politics are like and will not fit in with personalities.

    A part time job is a good choice, so it doesn't overwhelm your time and volunteering is always good. I did that a lot before I started working again. I feel guilty when I feel like should be doing more at home/ at work. NO matter what I always feel like I am slacking somewhere. I really want to go back to school for my masters. But... I have to do the paperwork. I am such a slacker sometimes.

    Volunteering is the best idea ever! Good one Synnen... Thanks.
    Sara19, hey you, glad you came on board! We are so happy you brushed your teeth...
