The worse thing about filling out job applications again is waiting for an update or even hoping for a call about your application. What is even more worse is waiting to hear back about a job application after being terminated unjustly and out of left field…and not knowing when/if you can find work before your money runs out.
The hardest part is waking up every day waiting for some call or notification and end of the day looking for updates on applications you’ve filed…and trying not to sit and obssess over it. And then rinse, lather, repeat the next day and going forward…
Before I started this new healthier eating journey, my old way to deal with stress was bingeing my favorite fatty Chinese food dish, but this healtheir eating has got me in a chokehold so I can’t bring myself to use old coping mechanisms but also, good chinese would cost a pretty penny and TBH every cent counts right now. Can’t even indulge if I wanted to.
I mean, it’s not the first time I’ve had to apply for jobs and wait, but it is the first time I didn’t choose to leave a job and was let go so abruptly there was no time to pre-plan. I personally have never left a job before I have another lined up. But I guess there is a first time for everything…
