Default jobhunting stress.

Hi Folks just thought id share my thoughts on how stressfull it is writing up my cv and job applications, i keep wandering off just to avoid doing it ,im reminded of how i used to smoke in these situations in the past i would constantly go off and have smoke after smoke and tell myself i'll do it when iv had this smoke. it would take days to complete them weeks even. anyway iv run out of avoidance tactics even washed up and run around with the hoover and still not typed a word. wish me luck on this smokefree venture.

I certainly wish you luck Mash and really understand how cigarettes used to "help" us in these tasks that are a bit onerous. Good luck in your job hunt

Good luck Mash. I don't envy you having to do that. There are proffesional CV writers on line, I dont know how much it costs but have you thought of that?

I know how you feel Mash!!!

I am in the process of shutting my company down due to the climate at the moment and had to get another job, surprisingly found coping with it easier since quitting which surprised me

Good luck with it mash. I'm having to write my C.V. today and a covering letter tonight (the closing date is Friday!). It's a crappy job...thinking of us both!

Hope you get some results!

Lisax xx
