There has been considerable lag time between my flurry to get them documentation and their lack of response. I guess if you have a past you cannot have a future? I know I am being negative. But when I fill out an application and then get the cold shoulder, it's pretty clear. I am trying not to get too sad about this. It's been happening for months now, I just thought maybe I could actually get a contract job....this solidifies my need to move away....but I don't have money to do it, yet. Such a crappy circle.
I'm so sorry you've been dealing with that. It's exhausting enough to be dealing with the constant disapointment of getting constantly turned down on the job market. At the very least you can be completely assured beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are not alone in your experience. It really is painful when our past seems to refuse to go away. Keep trying, after over a year and a half of being unemployed I was able to, seemingly out of the blue, land a job which set off a chain of events that led me to a different (and much better) place entirely from where I was before.
Do not let unfeeling employers who fancy themselves somehow superior to everyone else affect your mood in a self depricating way. Channel your frustration, take your revenge by working even harder to make yourself marketable and ultimately finding yourself in a job you'll probably like much better than that job anyway. I never in a million years would have pictured myself working with kids. I used to tell people straight up that "I don't like kids." But after I landed a job as an individual tutor with a government sponsered tutoring agency, I gained enough to experience to be hired by other tutoring agencies and next thing you know working with children is the absolute light of my life.
Your turn will come. Just keep telling yourself that. Everytime you get turned down for a job, tell yourself it's because fate is trying to steer you toward the perfect road.

THANK YOU, Ronin. There is something deep within me that knows this to be true. I just want to get to that feeling "for real" and the job to survive. Such a profound change in my life should be transforming to my career. A truth I have known for a while, but did not act upon.
-- editing to add I immediately felt guilty after posting this and it wasn't out of selfishness. I truly need to earn money to live at this point. Also, this is literally the 3rd day I have been alone in the house for 6 months and being alone seems to be the only time I feel the grief is my my future as well as my present (and past).

Why on earth would you feel guilty? Please PM me if the lonlieness is really hurting you like that.
