Great Work Ethic

Who gives a shit about a great work ethic?
How do you even know about someone when the only way you see them is through digitized bull shit?
I have been going into the Breach since June 7th....when my employer let me go after more than a decade of service.  Believe it, it was service as I have nothing to show for it.  What kind of idiot works for a company that takes away medical benifits, cuts her hours, uses up every weekend and then fires her on bs?  Oh yeah, that idiot would be me.  Of course, I grew up to believe that working and doing a good job was necessary for survival. I also believed that going to work to help my employer was a large percentage of my job. It appears as though that is a good motivation but living paycheck to paycheck is a bad idea.
I have finally been notified that my unemployment insurance has been denied.  Oh yay!  Now I am waiting for the paperwork to arrive so I can begin the process of appeal.  Unbelievable.
That is only the beginning of the breach and it has been over a month of hoop jumping.
Please submit your application online......OK.  Now answer 50 questions in 30 minutes.....OK.  We are sorry but you do not have the qualifications we are looking for.  Please feel free to apply again in the future.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, my stomach is doing flip-flops and my hair is falling out but what the hell, the perfect job will appear from the Mist and all will be well.
Then there was the EDD career center.  Please attend the orientation before attempting to use our facilities.  OK.  The meeting is attended but if you are interested in training, our training dollars have been spent.  Please call to see if we have received training dollars for the training we might be offering.  OK.
I have a great work ethic.  I am intelligent, mature and available to be of service to you.  I just hope you are able to figure that out if you receive my resume which I sent faithfully into the Internet dimension. I have no idea that it was received as your company did not invest in an autoresponse program.
Now, back into the breach.

Love and peace, Y'all.
