On the job front... well, I've for some reason gotten involved with EU a subset of EDD in SF. I've been trying to keep an open mind, but, skepticism reality is showing it's ugly head. Except for a few younger people, there are a lot of people who are what I would call over the hill, over working age, with a lot of appearance issues ... yes, ageism is alive and well in our society. These people may have skills, but keeping up appearances is not one of them. And, yes, frankly, if a man or woman well into their late 60s were to apply for a job, I too, would pass them over for a younger person who would cost a lot less to hire.
So, where do I fit in all of this?
What kind of a job am I going to get?
What am I looking for?
Will I take just anything that comes my way?
I've already just turned down one job, because:
1. I don't want to work in someone's home where I would be all alone while they are out in the field having fun.
2. I need to be working around people.
What is stopping me from being/becoming an art teacher?
What hurdles do I have to get over?
It's clearly a mental issue.
