Lori, you can call me Kim that's fine - I don't mind at all. GOOD NEWS! I just finished a hearing to get unemployment benefits. The representative asked me why I had not called in for benefits. I thought I had to wait to see what the decision of the hearing would be. So now I will get retroactive 2 weeks! That will help me pay to move my stuff into storage. The benefits are very low but it's better than nothing.
Careerbuilder.com is pretty good. I have a subscription with them and have had interviews thru them in the past. I signed up with Manpower too. They called me Friday to see if I want to work for Midwest Wireless - YES! So I'm waiting to hear back from them. Today I went to the unemployment office to submit my referral numbers. Two out of the four referrals were already filled. The two remaining referrals seem interesting. I also called a company that I didn't find thru the unemployment office - kinda a walkin' only it was a call in. He said they didn't have openings but were considering an upcoming opening and to call him next week.
I'm hoping if I have to go to that shelter that I won't have to stay long and I will have a job and get my own place immediately. When I was working at the shelter I heard about people getting head lice and all kinds of illnesses. I'm hoping I will get a job and stay at a hotel or something until I can afford my own place again. My dog is sensing my stress and doesn't sleep at night. For two nights now she's been keeping me awake constantly walking back and forth in and out of her doggie cage. Poor dog.
I woke up this morning very depressed. I made a little progress today and I feel a lot better. Thanks Lori!
For a while I continued practicing TM even though I was wasn't happy with the tennants and dogmas and behaviors I witnessed. When I learned TM 25 years ago it was marketed as a relaxation technique. I became scared to continue when I recently found out what my mantra really meant. Additionally I was concerned that I had been lied to. I asked several times when I initially learned TM what did my mantra mean and was always told it's just a sound. Guess the powers that be amongst the TM ranks never anticipated the internet and that the truth would come out. I say - expect to hear a big expose on the TM movement in the upcoming years. Lots of disgruntled people whose lives have been affected will start disclosing the truth. Actually they already have. The recent murder in the Maharishi University student cafeteria will be the beginning of the watershed for the rest of the country. I've been to Ball State University and graduated from a small Catholic College in Indiana, plus off and on did continuing ed. at several community colleges and I've never heard of anyone being murdered in broad daylight inside the dining hall. TM has powerful psyhological effects and is apparently not for everyone. I don't like what my mantra means and I don't like that they lied about it's meaning. Also i don't like the tennants that were revealed once I got here. Can you tell I'm bitter about TM?
Here's a link to the story about the unfortunate incidence in the dining hall. It happened 2 years ago. The lawsuit by the victim's family was not filed until 2 months ago. The lawyers wanted to make sure they had all their facts before going forward. The TM movement has a whole lot of money. That's why you neve hear anything bad. They line pockets and folks have been looking the other way. I think things may change.... maybe not after all money is power. Anyway here's the link http://observer.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,6903,1207936,00.html
