I would have to say that anyone who reads this blog needs you. it would be very different if we were all your friends. And knew who you were, At least I dont. If you were standing next to biggie and tupac (which is CA-PUT spelled backwards) I still wouldnt be able to pick you out. we all need to be able to vent. Which to me a blog is the perfect way to do it. SO vent on!

I don’t feel down anymore. I was.. once I get home.. I am just mellow and relaxed. I don’t care. At home I feel good and relaxed. It’s the day time stress that gets to me.

If it makes you feel any better, it takes most people at least a few job interviews before they get a decent offer of employment. As for having control over your life, nobody has complete control over his or her life. There are things in life that are beyond your control and you should just accept that fact. All you can do is control your own actions. That job offer will come in due course. Just have patience and try not to be too bummed out over employment rejections. Everybody has been there, done that, and got the T-shirt. You are not alone. Have you told your family about your employment situation? If you haven’t I think you should. They are probably wondering why you seem so down.

The key to acing your next interview is to stay in a positive frame of mind. As soon as you start thinking negative thoughts, the jig is up. Employers sense this stuff. Don’t let this past interview throw you off your game. Go into that next interview with that attitude that I am winner, I am great and you don’t know what you are missing if you don’t hire me. Inflate that ego girl!

Start your own business.

I completely understand you but still. You skipped the first few points.

Anyway, I know you are from Canada. I thought you might know people here just as I know 2 or 3 persone from Canada.

Good luck girl

I like my career choice. I am just looking for a better opportunity and someone to always challenge me. It motivates me to do more work. I am cursed to be a Capricorn. If I don’t work, I will go crazy!

I am in Canada, not Finland!

Not to act like your parents but:

*) Private companies need you to be there. Even if you do nothing at the moment, you still have to be there.
*) Yes it’s not completely work for 8 hours. No employee can fill your time for 8 hours and if they do, you won’t take the load.
*) Part of any job is R&D, spend some time researching new thinmgs. Learn new things or new technologies.
*) As an extension for the above: Get your own personal projects to the office. You will end up learning more and doing a few things
*) HR do not always have someone in mind. I don’t think that Nokia had someone in mind when they brought me from Egypt to Finland
*) Life is crappy ? I’m still doing the same mistake over and over again. Do NOT EVER make your internal happiness or peace dependant on someone. People love appreciation but there’s hardly anyone these days to say this You need somehow a good living conditions for that.
*) Ever thought about changing careers ?

Finally, do you know anyone in Helsinki cause I’m searching for good people here ?
