......sped up. Somewhat irritable with entire humanity. Thinking too much. No good omens. Village life seems like alter-world. Inner peace seems unreachable. Not sure where I am going... or why.

maybe this all mess is growing pains. I hope so. It better be.

I hope it gets better soon. It's hard to be in a new place.

Well said Venus. Maybe it's going around the planet right now. A good wave will come, hang on your board in the surf long enough and mother ocean will send in a good set..

feeling edgy, impatient.

Job hunting triggers me. My ****ing life apparently triggers me. But seriously, seeing ads for "assistant manager" written in bad Czech with "attach your photo to your CV" makes me mad (why? Really WHY? I seriously feel like buying a blond wig and push up bra to see if it increases my "qualifications". Or shall I just toss a molotov into your office park and plant trees on its ruins?).

I don't know what the hell I am doing, or what the hell I should do.... Was I chase a chimera all this time? Am I being unrealistic in expectations from life?

No words of wisdom...but I am thinking of you.

My brother's ex-wife is from Budapest and she told me about similar ads for secretaries and such...wanting a picture, etc. Ugh!

I vote molatav...& trees... But no can't really risk that. Screw them wanting a pic, should be illegal. I've seen studies here in states about how men get way more interviews than women - and people with "normal" or "white" sounding names get hired easier too. It's f-ed up. Chase your dream - you will find something good. Good ethical companies exist, and will be lucky blessed to have you join them.

I'm sorry you are feeling so unhappy!!

Why not amuse yourself and do an experiment? For the jobs that are wanting pictures? Send in multiple applications. With different pictures. Just change the fonts on your CV around.

Send in a good looking male photo and only use your first initial. Send in a "good looking" female photo and maybe put in a common nickname for your first name? Like if your name was Katherine you could put in Kate. And send in your real one.

Then if you get a call you'll know if they were calling K. Name, Kate Name, or Katherine Name, and you'll know which picture they responded to!

Of course... you can't send the three applications within the same hour. Then they'd notice.

Maybe the rest is mania, but the BS about the job application would piss off anyone. It pisses me off and I'm nowhere near manic.
