[quote=Anonymous]I was out of work for a few months (layoffs) and it was horrible. I feel like unfortunately I do place a lot of my "self worth" on not only having a job, but being good at it. Maybe there are some reasons I'm looking for acceptance, something to figure out in therapy... I'm in a not-so-stable gig now (under-valued, reduced pay and sub-par benefits), but it's work. So not only do I commiserate with you (it is really is tough out there) not hearing anything back from people or phantom leads get OLD FAST. I'm trying like hell to avoid being out of work again, but it feels like I have a lot less control then I once did. Im sort of accepting that I have a lot to offer that maybe people don't see and at the end of the day sadly i am just a line item on a budget sheet. It's going to sound dumb, but you are the only one that can make you happy. I still feel powerless, but its almost 50% my own fault.[/quote]
