Job Hunting Sucks

For anyone out there that is looking for a Job can agree that it is very depressing! Rejection after rejection after rejection. I heard that for every $10, 000 you can expect to look for a month. How depressing. I have a college degree, I have a lot to offer, and I have tons of experience and I can not get a job. I have been looking aggressively for 2 months, some really good interviews but they always want something else. More accounting skills, offer less money, or more management skills.
Cut me some slack here people. I am a hard worker, dedicated person. Employers need to just take a chance on a few of the good ones.
I mean I can understand how people fall into depression looking for a job. There is only so much that one person can take before they start feeling like a failure or not good enough.
It is a really scary thing not to have a job! Really scary, how do people make it??

Enough of my ranting! I had to get it out so I can get back to finding a job.

My Commitment

I have committed to myself and a friend of mine that I am going to do the 3 Day 60 mile walk for Breast Cancer Awarness and Research. This horrible disease takes the life of so many women each year that this is how I am going to help. I am going to raise money and walk to help find a cure. Pink ribbons and all.
So with that said, I have started to train now to be ready for 20 miles a day for 3 days.

I came across a blog yesterday of a women, 28 years old that blogged about her fight with breast cancer, losing her breasts, and dealing with the fact that she will never have children because of it. I realized at that moment that I am doing this for her. I can't imagine what she went through and I will not even try but to compare my problems to it. But that is why I am walking to help find a cure and to do what I can.
