"Semi-employed"

Okay, I have a lot to say today.

So the past few weeks have been the best examples of semi-employed as I can present.

A few weeks ago, the project I was on ended.  I was conflicted out of a few other projects and therefore didn't work for two weeks.  Unemployment is super boring but at least I had the time to get the resume out there...hopefully this round will bring me some sort of success.  So far, not so much and it is so frustrating!

I was so glad to get the email that I was starting a project this past Tuesday.  I was not so glad when I got the notice that the project ended Wednesday night.  Yep that's right, a whole two days.  Awesome.  Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to work when I get called in but this is really getting old. 

I did actually start another project yesterday and it's slated to last about two weeks.  Good news--they allow overtime.  Bad news--I'll have to work my butt off to get the hours because Monday's a holiday so I'll have to make those hours up to get the overtime (ie-super long days during the week and probably long days over the weekend) again I say awesome.

I'm so over it.  I don't think I'm asking for a lot when I just want a normal job.  One with actual stability, a steady paycheck, paid holidays, vacation time, and health insurance!  Is that really too much?  I mean, I am educated.  I have the colossal loans to prove it! 

Having a job where I actually get to use my brain and my education would be amazing.  I feel like I'm getting dumber by the day. 

On that note, I need to go look for and apply for some jobs.  Wish me luck!  I need it.
