It Looks Like "It's" Happening!!!

I moaned and whined about my last job but in reality I meant it more as a chapter in my life that didn't work out and I moved on.

I filed for unemployment and it appears that I have won my case. However, the best bet is to look around, not only because your required to, but because I am a firm believer in keeping busy. I refuse to sit at home living a sedentary life hanging out in my front porch watching the neighbors drink and smoke their money away.

I was checking the books out in the library when I looked up and saw this page, or you could call it a bulletin too, with a bunch of little snippets with a phone number. People usually use this style of ad for renting rooms or something like that. I read the bulletin and it was an offer for people that wanted to work with Seniors and young people with, I think, learning problems. The ad offered a small stipend, paid lunches and mileage.The stipend is not taxed and does not count against any other monies such as SSI. I thought it was a "scam" maybe but then I saw that it was affiliated with the University of Northern Arizona. I took the bait.

I called the number and a Rep came by with paper work galore. I filled all the forms out and within a few days the lady, one named Dorothy, came by with a form for me to get a physical exam. I think I have been accepted because Dorothy has given me some advice and said I would be on a training program. I think the visits with Dorothy counted alot because it looks positive.

There are Seniors that need a visit, a way to get to the store, someone to drive them around in their car for doctor visits and other appointments. Part of the duties also require that you read to these people. Feed them their meals and just meet with young people.

I am looking forward to this. And i hope that I am accepted!!
