Job hunting...

I haven't told you all, I'm looking for a job.

I haven't been employed in about 6 years. I've been talking about looking for a job for a long time, but something kept holding me back. Mostly I was scared and just kept making up excuses. But, a few weeks ago I finally started updating my resume and looking around.

I've sent out SEVERAL resumes, and filled out a couple of applications. I've gotten one phone call back, and next Thursday I have an interview.

I've also been out of the dating scene for about 7 years. Thankfully I'm not looking in that department... but I imagine my "search" would probably be similar.

Do I look the part? (I imagine the dating scene attire would require more skin showing than the job hunting attire...)

Do I have the right "skills"? (You know, typing, computer skills... that sort of thing. Very important in the dating world too, right?)

Are my "skills" out of date?

Any questionable behavior in the past? (Depending on the behavior, questionable could be a good thing when looking for a date I think..)

Have I ever been fired/dumped, and why? Or... reason for leaving last job/relationship?

Anyway... luckily my situation is that I WANT a job, not that I NEED a job, so I can be picky, and I'm not too discouraged about the fact that I'm not getting that many calls. It's just kind of interesting, especially if keep seeing the same position posted, but they still haven't called me.

Oh well.
