You Are Now a Manager

“A Job Search Snippet”

Regardless of what your job was or what position you held, when you lost your job you automatically became a manager. Unpaid, of course, but with all the responsibilities, headaches, concerns, etc.

You are now in charge of your own schedule. No one else will keep up with whether you are late to work or leaving early. Whether you take too long a break. What your lunch break is like. And if you think that is a ridiculous idea since you are unemployed, think again.

Because you do have a job. Your job is to find a job, and it’s a full-time job. It’s a hard job. It’s a frustrating job. It’s likely to be a thankless job. But, you can succeed if you keep at it.

“Job Search Snippets” are intended to just introduce you to ideas that have worked for others. They won’t take a long time to read, but hopefully they will each give you something to think about and use to help yourself get through this.
