a_qUh, I've forgotten how difficult and annoying writing job applications can be. I have a folder of material on how to write them, there's tons of advice on net as well, and yet it feels completely impossible to do.
Well, it's mostly the getting started part - like with any other type of writing project, really. Which is why I'm really happy that my colleague and I have a deal to help each other out. She's coming over for coffee in Wednesday, and we will look over each others papers - so I better have some sort of first draft done for that! Stern deadlines are the best for the difficult writing projects - and it's good to get feedback.
Also I need to list all the possible towns I could move to (well, I could move anywhere, but there are places I like more than others), and what chain stores there are in those towns, so I can just push one application on several locations.
And to help my stress (not), the news have been filled to the brim on how hard it is to get a job in today's work market! >.< This topic has been reported the same way for the last twenty years, so I try to ignore it, but it's really hard to stay positive.
