So its been a while since I have been on here. I have been quite busy lately setting up an online shop and working on hand made items to put into the shop. I haven't really been focusing on photography which for me is kind of weird but I love to make things so I been working on that. Its been years since I sat down and made something. I been crocheting hats and purses. I just crocheted a little dragon and he actually turned out. I took a class in needle felting to see if I liked it and found I did. Currently working on pin cushions. I found a nice hat on line I am going to attempt to crochet. I sometime get overwhelmed with how many projects I have in mind.

I am just glad I can work on them I am currently unemployed just like half of the United states right now. Its not easy trying to get a job. I put my resume out there and never get a reply. I am starting to think that when I send my resume out that it isn't getting to them. I've been looking for a job for over 5 months now and I have like 3 call in's that ended up being bogus for job interview. One guy forgot to tell me he found someone for the job so I went to the interview and he came out and let me know they had found someone already and sorry for not calling me to tell me not to come.

I applied for a filing clerk job in a medical office only to have someone tell me it was for a personal assistant and that I would never be able to talk to her on the phone since she was hard of hearing and that she gave to orphan homes during this time of the year. That she was in real estate and out of the country for a while and would be back soon. That a client of hers would drop off "a check to me" so that I could cash it and buy for the little orphans as my first job for her. She was a con-artist and I had her flagged for putting up a job about working for her in the office and running a few errands. The ad had said to file things in a medical office. When did the real estate person come into this, used a totally different email address as well. Now I know I wasn't the only person to write her about the job and "she" probably got over 300 replies to her ad and about half of them thought she was legit. She was offering $600 a week. So a lot of people who were out of work just got fooled and I am glad I wasn't one of them. I ended it there and not surprising she never wrote me back. I didn't risk writing her a reply after what she said.

The 3rd one ha ha wanted to do a credit check on me and then said that they wouldn't use that against me when hiring me. They should of had that in the add to begin with or I would of never applied for the job. You all know they would use that against you when hiring. I will never work for any place that looks at your credit to hire you. I can pass a 10 year background check and I would of pasted there credit check but I don't trust places like that. So my hunt for some kind of job is still on. I apply every week at least 4 to 3 times a week and since summer is coming up I hope to get a job. The weird thing is I stay with jobs for several years and never had a problem getting hired. But with the way the economy is now forget it.  You could be a doctor and have problems getting a medium waged job.

So I am just looking for a job and had making things. Being unemployed isn't as bad as people make it out to be. You get paid weekly as long as you claim once a week for not having a job. They base it off what you made in your last job that you stayed in more then 6 months. You have to apply for jobs every week till you find one and they actually have classes you can take to better yourself. So that you can get a job you actually want or be interested in. A lot of people don't know that. I was always scared to be unemployed and now I realize why? It only gets scary when you come to the end of your unemployment which I have one more month to try and find a job or I will have to ask for an extension for a few more months. I hope I wont have to and that I will find myself a job.

I have ton of images I would love to post but it would take forever to do and I'm not in the mood right now to post them. I hope to in the next couple of days to post a couple of photos I just have to get them ready to post. So till later in the life of RibbonsEnd-Stock.
