Title: Please pray for me to find a job
Post by: Masha on November 18, 2008, 07:46:56 PM
Please send me your good thoughts and prayers in finding a job. I've been in very low spirits, writing a lot of applications, but nothing coming out of it. A part-time job that I had for a couple of months is now finished, and nothing is on the horizon so far. There are so many good people on this board. Maybe G-d will be merciful and hear your prayers if you ask for me to find a job.

I'll certainly pray for you, Masha. 

Now can I ask what kind of work you're looking for?

I said a prayer. I would like to ask- are you Jewish? (if yes, I can tell you some segullot).

Masha,
   you obviously are a real genuine good hearted person who believes in hard work, not the type of wellfare recipients that Obama has supporting him. I believe that G-d will open many doors for you, just pray and be patient for He works in mysterious ways. Happy smiley face:)

What are you looking for?  This whole year was not bad for jobs but now it's really tough.

Thank you very much all you kind people for responding. Yes, I am Jewish (but not frum). I don't live in the U.S., although I've applied even in the U.S. I don't want to give any particulars, because - who knows? I just hope to find a job commensurate with my training, where I could utilize my talents, which, I hope, will go towards supporting the good in this world. Today I spoke with a good friend (not about the job search, just about life) and feel better for no particular reason. Just the magic of human connection, I guess.

Yesterday, I felt really bad. I felt such sharp pain in my chest (it wasn't a physical, but a psychological pain, but it almost felt physical) that I couldn't breathe. I remembered that the last time I was feeling such pain was when I was 18 and fell in love, but the boy I was in love with told me that he didn't love me. And I thought to myself - ha-ha, how life's priorities change. First it's love, then it's a job. Many bad things happened to me in the past (just as to any person - I am not claiming exclusivity here), but they caused a different pain - a kind of a dull ache. It's this sharp pain that literally stops you from breathing that is a very peculiar feeling. It must be something that goes to the core of your very being. If you don't have a job, it's like you are nothing. Our identity is so closely related to what what we do.

I like HotJobs.com.  I find it to be the most user friendly of all the job sites.  Can I ask what country you are in?  Maybe some of us can help you in your search.
