I had the perfect job. I was working as a receptionist in a children's clinic, making a decent amount of money. I enjoyed what I did, got myself situated, and tried to keep to myself and get my job done. I had some co-workers who didn't like the fact that I was in the position I was in and found a way to get me out of the job I loved. It's been almost 2 months with no leads to even a "decent" job and the last encounter I had was a scam. I have children and bills but no money. What's happening to me?

I am tired of working out on the road and missing my kids grow up need a job .

I quit life. I quit trying. Give up. Like I'm literally ready to just start walking to no where. and hope that something takes me out. My life has turned to crap and I just literally want to go away. I am alone. Like many here have posted. Kids. Great potential... but my kids and are hungry, my fridge is empty. Life is unfair and it just sucks for people without access. It sucks. I suck.

I’m a single mother of two with no family at all and a mortgage... I stepped out on faith due to a daily 98 mile round trip commute. I went on LOA in hopes to find a position near my new home that I bought last year. It took almost 4 months and I thought I was going to have to take a big pay cut but God said no you don’t my child. I got exactly what I wanted... $30 an hour with a 15 mile commute. Praise God!!!! Thank you so much for this blessing, now I have more time to spend in my new home with my beautiful children

I'm so frustrated when the owner of the company has no clue what I do for him. Not only do I do all of his Human Resource stuff, I also have 85% of the company that reports directly to me. I've taken on more work with no pay increase. I haven't had a raise in close to 7 years. So, now that I'm looking to leave the company to better myself and my kids lives now he is treating me like crap and jumping all over me for what other managers do wrong. I have every right to better myself. I've been working for him for 10 years. We are looking to move out of State but where we really want to go there isn't any decent paying jobs there. If anyone has any suggestions on what to do and on how to look for jobs in different states. Please let me know.

Amazing kids

Update: So I just got a call back from a company I applied for and I was hired. The only place that hired me was the one place that didn't asked if I had children, so in that case I feel like I was disqualified from other jobs because of me having children. Sad part is it's something I can't prove, but like U said in the past, I know my worth and it's their loss.

I recently relocated to Texas from South Florida. Hard times came about back home which caused me to move in which I'm staying with my parents until my husband can get transferred from his job. I've been sending out my resumes and have gotten 5 interviews so far. As far as the interviews go, they seem to like me, plus I have 13 years experience in the medical field, but then they ask if I have children, and once I answer yes it seems like they end the interview right there and then to tell me we will call you. I feel like I keep getting denied jobs because I have 2 little ones and its starting to get discouraging.
