You sound like you're in my world! I try to tell myself that things MUST get better. Sometimes it works, sometimes I cry myself to sleep.. if I do sleep..
You aren't a loser, I'm a professional who's job tanked after the economy I'm looking for a second job and get answers from "too educated, not the right education, and you're already employed we want to give the position to someone who really needs it" (because I guess I don't somehow??) It's a very distressing market out there, so don'tlet anyone tell you it's all on you that you can't find work.
