“present yourself as a free-lance employed person to some of these potential corporate employers”
dona, All good ideas. That’s exactly what I am doing. Resume says “Consulting/Freelance Blah Blah” And it’s not completely untrue. I’m just not doing enough freelance work to really keep my boat afloat. And some of the work is technically volunteer/community service, but some of it is paid.
I have a website, google my real “fullname.com”, it should come up. I did a whole campaign first 2/3’s of last year. Mailers, email, networking, built website, etc. NADA. Except one company which emailed me asking me to take them off my mailing list! LOL! Pathetic.
I’m working on a freelance job right now (really, I am!). And it will be nice to tell people I did it, but I need more work. It’s not enough in the long term, or the short term for that matter.
Cobble, dona makes a great point. Mrs C is looking to on-ramp now (I lurve corporate lingo) and has really done a good job in listing fundraising and other volunteer work she’s been doing since last employed almost 8 years ago.
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW not the victoria’s secret is infested with bedbugs!
Victoria’s Secret Latest Chain With Bedbug Problem
The bloodthirsty bedbug army continues to maraud through Manhattan’s big name clothing chains; having already brought Hollister and Abercrombie & Fitch to their knees, bedbug forces briefly seized a Victoria’s Secret store in Lenox Hill Wednesday, as part of a cunning ploy to make women across the city suddenly very squeamish. It’s also believed that female bedbugs—who reproduce via traumatic insemination; i.e. getting jabbed in the abdomen by the male’s sharp penis—look hot in a thong.
A spokeswoman for the store’s parent company tells NY1 that “only a small and isolated area of the Lenox Hill store was affected…[and] the store was treated Wednesday morning and reopened later that day. All the merchandise in the affected section was removed and destroyed.” The company is currently testing other stores for bedbugs citywide, but, again, just an isolated incident. Not trying to be alarmist. Unless you bought some underwear there Tuesday and put it on immediately without washing it, thereby infesting your ladyparts with bedbugs, you’re probably fine.
DH you crack me up, all quiet like, leaning up against the wall in the back of the room, having a smoke, coming out with these comments under your breath, too quiet for those in front to hear, but perfect for those of us in the cheap seats.
EW it is nothing like that pervuses. it’s all business related.

“traumatic insemination.”
Biff, cut the crap and just buy her a boutique to run 😉
