Day 2

Ugh! i lost my post so I'm going to try and re-write it. *sigh*

Ok so here it is day 2 and I didn't do much job searching. I did get out my app for a youth shelter near me. it's been sitting here for a week and a half cuz i couldn't think of any non smart-alek remark to the question: "what is your philosophy about raising youth" All I could think of was things like: duct tape and strong rope or, children should be neither seen nor heard. Yeah, not really my philosophy but all i could think of. I've been Very active in Girl Scouts for 9 years, I really believe that kids today, especially young women Need guidance from caring adults who support them and guide them yet allowing them to make their own choices. Adults who guide instead of simply telling them what to do. I also feel that with the media images that we're all bombarded with that girls have a long uphill battle if they don't fit into a Very narrow niche that society says they have to fit into.

So I dropped that app off in the mail but didn't do really anything else today for job searching. Well, I looked at the workforce center website but there wasn't anything new there. I'll look Monday.

*time out for a rant* I've looked on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook and I can't find hardly ANY ONE to link with. There are NO adults in the area on any of these social media/networking sites! I found a HS girl and a real estate agent and the real estate agent is in Algona, about an hour away from my home. I know that the best way to get the inside scoop on jobs is to network but it's tough to network when i don't know anyone. i was thinking maybe i should join a community service organization like Rotary, Kiawanis, Lions or something like that but i know some of them you have to have a sponsor and I don't know anyone so i don't have a sponsor. Maybe there's a women's networking group. I'll have to look into that next week.

Ok rant is over.... Not sure how much blogging I'll get done tomorrow. Austin, my dishy boy friend works in the morning so I might post then otherwise, i'll post again on Monday. Not much job searching to be done on the weekend. Although there are always opportunities for networking. I'll just have to keep my eyes open to them.
