one would think...

wouldn't one think that at a career fair, people would actually be hiring? i went to the wisconsin broadcasters association career fair yesterday, and almost every table i went to said "oh, well we're not hiring right now." ok....

there were some students there, looking for internships. they probably had more luck.

but the good news is, i gave my resume out and shook many hands...sometimes i feel like i've been cheated by places i've applied at because they see i don't have as much experience, so they reject me before even meeting me.  so yesterday, i made sure to be outgoing and shake hands and smile a lot. hopefully that might help! i always feel like i can win people over if i get to meet them in person. in fact, now that i think about it....all of the places that rejected me in the past didn't interview me.

i do feel lucky that i am employed, don't get me wrong....i am just feeling restless. i did not set out to do accounting, and i've been doing it for about 3 years now. merp.

and sometimes i wonder if i'm spreading myself too thin. obviously i am with my 3 jobs and business, but as far as passions go, i have many! i love editing video, and then i have less marketable passions like music and crafts and tap dancing. it's hard to do it all....someday, though, i'll be able to chase them. :)
