why does a simple statement- you don't qualify for the job - make me feel so incredibly stupid..............I will never amount to anything..for I am the dust beneath your feet..... i will always remain some ones little b..... my family jokes about my intelligence.... i may not be the most educated, but i am capable..or so i think i am...perhaps not...perhaps i am trash that no one wants ......i have been told that before....maybe its true....

Oh, honey... *hugs*

Trust me, it's not always about how capable you are. I've spent the past four months looking for a job, and I've only just found one. It's not because I'm not capable or smart, it's because I just wasn't the kind of person the employers were looking for. Being qualified for a job has more involved than just being capable. Employers look at all kinds of things.

Honestly, 9 times out 10, it's not you, it's them.

If you'd like help with your resume or some interview tips, PM me.

For what it's worth, Beth, I've found you to be among the most intelligent people I've talked to on this forum (no offense to any others!), and deeply enjoy our talks. I've been unemployed for 6 months now, so I know how unproductive it can make you feel. Don't you dare listen to anyone who says no one wants you, or that you're trash. Everyone has a role to fill, including you.

Turning the tide is not going to be easy, Bethy, but it'll be awesome when it happens. You'll be like a force of nature, proving all those chattering busybodys wrong. When you get your self-confidence back, you will be unstoppable, I really believe that.

*mucho hugs*, and nice seeing you in chat.
