Ok, so my job isn't great but it's not terrible. The only thing that is are the hours. I have two kids and work 6 days a week sometimes 9 10 hour days mostly on the weekends. I told the boss this when I started but she still keeps handing me these shifts like 11 to 8 three days in a row, and I don't know how to go about talking to her about it without seeming like I'm complaining or anything. I need to work but I also need to be home with my family when I can. Does anyone have any advice on how to go about explaining this to her?

Back in 2013 I was an OTR Class A, I was working for CREngland reefer, I had just completed my training and went on as a I.C./ phase 2 trainer, and sadly, just as things were going well, I get a phone call from my family saying that my stepfather had passed away from a sudden heart attack and that my mom had nobody to help her get through it all, so I gave up my career as a trucker and haven't been back since. I now have other responsibilities, I have a beautiful 8 year old daughter and am unable to work, I'm disabled. I do respect all truckers, all that they do to keep this country going, I know the sacrifices and hardships and challenges, I can't stand dispatcdispatches, they haven't the slightest clue. Keep on Trucking

I’m 39 and have 2 kids under the age of 3. My firing in April came as a massive surprise as I was #3 out of 7 sales managers at my last hotel. I was mind blown and now for some unknown reason can’t get a job to save my life. It’s been over 3 months with no work and lots of hospital bills for my younger son, not to mention a ridiculously high COBRA plan for me and my kids that far outweighs Arizona unemployment wages. I’ve tried and tried again to follow up with my more than 80 applications I’ve sent in and just don’t know what else to do. I’m great at my job - was promoted twice in 4 years and was repeatedly an employee or manager of the year nominee. I love working and love the hospitality industry - that’s what my degree is in for crying out loud! This whole finding a new job thing sucks and the toughest part is trying to figure out when it’s all going to end and I’m able to get another paycheck again.

What am I supposed to do - send the applications in while sitting in their HR office to make sure I get noticed?

I’m sorry to have to delete this, but I have good reasons to.

I don’t have the answer for not being able to find a job. I’ve been in the same boat since February 2019. I’m Senior Level Management and my experiences in this quest are exactly like most of you. I’m living on the bare minimum with fears of eviction. I’ve already lost my home. I am a Single Mother with 2 children and I am the sole provider. It’s ugly! I’m either overqualified or I receive promising feedback, then nothing. It’s an emotional roller coaster. What I will do is offer encouragement. Don’t give up. Cry, Scream, then pick yourself up and start over again the Next day.

My Step dad and I worked at Dunham Price LLC in Westlake La. They said they where downsizing. So they laid off my stepdad. The only other person they laid off was me! It's been about 2 months and still, just him and me. I tried to tell them I have nothing to do with him. They kept saying that they were just downsizing. I said to them, " this is discrimination!" They said if I wanted to get upset, well then they wouldn't pay me for the rest of the month either! I had to bite my tongue. I'm a single mother that was doing a great job for them! I think it's wrong! I needed that money. I'm having a hard time finding a job that even comes close to the money I was making. I was finally going to get my son and I out of a negitive living situation! They r just heartless, and my main point it was discrimination by association!!

Help! I can’t seem to find a job. I had to quit my last job because management was so unprofessional, getting in my face, stealing out of my desk, cussing, saying very rude comments, it was horrible!

I have been looking ever since, (5 months). I have experience, a Health Science degree, licensed phlebotomists, and Chemical Dependency Counselor Assistant .

I’m desperately seeking part time because I have a special needs child at home. I don’t get it, I’m ready to start a career but nobody will hire me. I can pass a drug test all day every day! I have no criminal record of any sort!

Anyone else having trouble finding work?
