So, it seems that my emotional state is starting to fall and I can't really do anything about it. After losing my job a couple weeks ago I thought I'd look into getting EI and going back to school. I decided that plumbing was a good choice and went online to check on availability and cost of courses. Even went in and talked to the head of the trades dept of the local college. Everything was looking good. That is until I started dealing with the fucking EI bullshit. I had to call about 3 different numbers to find out that if I go back to school rather than just try to get another job that I might not be eligible to get EI. This of course means that I wouldn't be able to afford going back to school which means I'd be back looking for another job that I would hate doing. But as with all government options, I still don't have a definite answer and I'll need to wait another couple weeks to see if they'll approve the course I want to take so that I can go back to school. Then on top of that I got my severance payment and it was about $4000 less than what I had expected. I just don't know how much more I can take right now. I'm thinking this is why I wrote that horribly whiney blog about nobody watching my videos. I kind of hated myself a little after that one, so sorry folks.

I've been laid off for too long...so I definitely know how much being unemployed sucks! It causes a lot of stress. Makes me moody. I try not to let it show through my blogs...but I also wanna be real...so my blogs come out the way they come out. So...I wouldn't worry about that other blog you had mentioned at the bottom of this one. I'm not going to tell you to think positive...cause I'm the absolute worst at thinking positive myself. Instead...I'll say that I'll wish you good luck. Keep us posted. :)
