Then generally before noon, I am slapped by the reality that I am not anywhere near where I thought I would be career wise at this time in my life, and I KNOW that I am not alone. There are so many people out there searching the WWW, 'Hitting the Pavement', cold calling, and networking everyday to get where they need and deserve to be, but are yet still coming up short on the ever proliferating pursuit of a liveable SALARY REQUESTED job.http://salaryrequested.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com (JRW)Blogger6125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932455269028722625.post-5464983509350993994Wed, 02 Apr 2008 18:14:00 +00002008-04-02T14:16:46.253-04:00Please note.

I have been taking some time for me, really figuring out what it is I want to do, and where I want and deserve to be in life. I have been playing with the notion of relocation, I have been considering going back to school for my MA, I have been researching all aspects of developing my own PR firm. All I know is that I have to do something for me.

I have had an uninteresting week so far, sill applying, still looking for that Salary requested job, or at least a good hourly wage. Know anyone that's hiring. I have been considering pharmaceutical sales, what do you think? Perhaps I should go back to school? But I am already looking forward to paying of student loans.Hope your week has been better.http://salaryrequested.blogspot.com/2008/02/long-week.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (JRW)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932455269028722625.post-3856416590450282995Mon, 25 Feb 2008 17:56:00 +00002008-02-25T13:11:27.666-05:00So, It is the 2nd day of the week; the beginning of a new work week for those with the wonderful and at times awful 9-5. The weather is mild, the sun is shining; a good afternoon. I have just finished reviewing Sunday's career section of the local newspaper. I found a couple of positions to apply to, which is great. One thing I had begun to do about a year ago, is to look at the wedding http://salaryrequested.blogspot.com/2008/02/happy-monday.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (JRW)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932455269028722625.post-8416710886614931601Thu, 21 Feb 2008 20:31:00 +00002008-02-24T00:09:22.029-05:00career choiceHow many times in a week do you get asked, "So, what do you do?" I have resorted to answering that question with, 'I work.'After a sudden and life altering job loss, I took a job working retail, 0-32 hours per week, I average around 10 and 15 on a good week, and that is usually with taking someone's hours because they have called in. Although, I don't particularly care for it at all, Nothing is http://salaryrequested.blogspot.com/2008/02/how-many-times-in-week-do-you-get-asked.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (JRW)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932455269028722625.post-3109082967522331458Wed, 20 Feb 2008 01:09:00 +00002008-02-19T20:29:23.683-05:00I have often thought of how I could make a difference in this world. Then I think? What would that difference really mean? Would I be remembered for making that difference, and should I expect to be? How would I know of the difference?Well for one, there are many ways, I can make a difference, and this is just one of many. I have finally decided to not let the world, this society and economy http://salaryrequested.blogspot.com/2008/02/and-so-journey-continues.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (JRW)0
