Frustration

I know I'm not doing anything wrong. I look for jobs for hours a day, and yes, I apply to them. I network, I let people know I'm looking, I've updated and polished my resume a dozen times. There's nothing else I can do, and that, in itself, is frustrating.

If a bunch of moneyed, highly educated politicians can't fix the economy, I can't either. I feel powerless. Why are we in a recession for almost 10 years now? This is ridiculous. Ask the economists when the end is coming, they can't even tell you. I'm sick of reading about how bad things are, I'm living how bad things are.

And yes, people, I did prepare wisely. But when you keep getting laid off, savings do tend to deplete. Savings don't last forever, and bills wait for no one.
