Stir Crazy

So I've been off work for about two weeks now, and I'm starting to get a little stir-crazy. I've registered with temp agencies and been hunting on websites and haven't heard back from anyone yet. I'm starting to feel that itch that says, "Should you have left Comcast? Was it the right decision to go when you didn't have another prospect?"

I wish that I could have planned better. I wish maybe even that I'd seen my burnout coming before it hit me square in the forehead. But I also learned a bit from that position. I learned that I don't like doing sales (and I'm not very good at it), that the call-center sales position is simply not right for me, and that sometimes, very, VERY rarely, a crappy job isn't worth a steady paycheck and financial security.

But now I'm sick of being home. I want a job. I'm afraid of not finding one in enough time. I'm glad to be working at ChaCha, but I don't have a lot of faith that it's going to bring in enough to support Chris and I. I'm wondering if maybe I should try to pick up a couple of part time jobs in the meantime. I'm trying to figure out why I was so much more confident the LAST time I was job searching. But the bottom line?

This sucks.

I'm working hard at it (I just took a small break to write this), but it sucks. So hopefully I'll find something soon.
