Employment

Ugh! For more than 12 months, Hugh has been applying to every job for which he is qualified and physically able to do. Hundreds of applications, several interviews, and NOTHING!!! Even Winners claims that they have nothing for which he is qualified. RIDICULOUS! I am becoming more and more frustrated (I can't even fathom how he must be feeling) and angrier and angrier. As if there is nothing in this city for which he is qualified! He has only ever worked retail and is amazing at it! He loves customer service! I have absolutely no doubt that most of it is quite simply age discrimination. I have no idea how to prove it, but it is the only thing that makes any sense. The other thing which is becoming increasingly frustrating is hearing that everyone is hiring but no one wants to work!!! REALLY???  REALLY?!?!?! THEN WHY HAS MY HUSBAND BEEN LOOKING FOR WHAT FEELS LIKE FOREVER WITH NO LUCK! sigh

I, fortunately, have an amazing job which pays me quite well, however, I cannot keep us afloat forever. I am beginning to struggle and really need to have some help. I could, theoretically, teach summer school, but I really don't want to. I want to be able to enjoy my days sleeping in, lounging in the yard, walking the dog, visiting the cottage, etc.  

If anyone happens to be reading this, and you know of an upstanding retail business that will appreciate years of knowledge and customer service experience, please let me know!

Hoping not to lose my mind before my loving husband finds a job.
