A Little Bit Frustrating

I find it frustrating to always be on a job hunt, to be looking out for the next career that might just sweep me up and let me have-at an actual life. And to everyone else out there that is currently searching for their own dream careers, they probably feel similar. Searching becomes depressing, distasteful, and in it self takes forever with the way the hiring process is done right now. And all of that, to me and to many others, is frustrating.

But I think what is even more frustrating is looking past what a job or a career has to offer for the individual and onwards towards what the individual has to offer for the career. There is a certain sense of uselessness that comes with being unable to push and market the ideas that one comes up with, because there is no audience. We are all on stage and we are all looking for that next big performance, but the distaste towards being always in the next act and never in the current one hurts to think about.

Hopefully someone out there will realize the talents they have sitting in the back, the ideas that are to be had from the new generation, and onward and upward we can all climb.

A Very Weird Horoscope Today

I would like to start off by saying I am not very superstitious when it comes to luck and the alignment of planets and all of that. I just cannot see how the day I was born would have anything to do with or relate to the alignment of the planets, and even less understanding of how someone born two days different can have the same fate as I do. And do not get me wrong, I understand the philosophy behind horoscopes and Chinese proverbs of wisdom, but they just do not make sense to me.

Instead, I read my horoscope and my daily words of wisdom because it gives me something fun and interesting to do on my down time. I do not tend to take them for more than that, a bunch of very bland predictions of what I should feel like for the day that may or may not be right. So when I finally get one that not only hits home, but perfectly on to my current emotions, I am a bit surprised. Take for instance today.

Here's today's horoscope for Aquarius (Aug 6, 2012):

	Mood:	3/6 Stars
	A very demanding Monday due to the square formed between the moon and Pluto which could bring back old problems to life.
	Love:	2/6 Stars
	Unfortunately you will barely have any time to devote to your love life, you will be far too busy as it is.
	Career:	2/6 Stars
	You could well totally ignore important pieces of information you will be given today.
	Wellness:	2/6 Stars
	You can expect stress, mostly due to the issues present in your professional life today.

Jobs for Junior

The first time I heard about parents getting involved in helping their children get or keep jobs at certain companies was a small article in the newspaper. In the article, the son went into an interview and apparently blew it. The company sent him a letter a few days later saying that they did not want him for the position and they wished him the best of luck. Instead of taking it as a loss and moving on, the son called up his parents and told them about the interview. Apparently his mother actually went over to the office and started talking with the hiring personnel, asking why they did not like her little boy and what was wrong with him.

What a lunatic!
