Yes that's why I always hated holidays when I;m not working because it delays the progress of my job hunt.
I agree. I actually thought that the holidays wouldn't be a big deal and that it actually may be helpful because of other employee's being on vacation. That was a stupid thought, I guess it's just another long week of delays. The week after thanksgiving I have testing for the power company and also for the post office. I know the post office is not the best place because of the post office not being stable but at this point I am open to anything - clerical, customer service, heck even retail - just anything as long as it pays a living wage. I can work on finding a career once I find a tide me over job.
How is your job hunt going TVSG? Are you having any better luck? I hope so.

I still have the same pending situation with the company that emailed me on Friday letting me know that 2 out of my 3 references responded and do I want to submit another name since the other person never got back to them,.
So maybe this will be settled before December and I get a job offer between 11/26 and 11/30

That sounds like a good sign. I hope your thanksgiving gift is a new job where you will be happy.
That's all I want from Santa is a decent job, heck at this point I'd settle for even $10 a hour until something better comes along!

Yeah it does seem like a good sign because she did go out of her way to let me know one of my references didn't respond and asked me to submit a new name.
She could have just not said anything and just removed my name from consideration.
The Hurricane is what messed everything up because if it never happened the reference check would have started on 10/29 instead of 11/5 and this would have been settled before the holidays.
