They say that everything happens for a reason. Does anyone else get tired of hearing that constantly? Especially in this economy and with the lack of jobs out there...I do at times. I thought that things were looking up. I thought that things were going to be able to be to get better. Interesting thing about this time around I'm not as sad and down as I used to be when things didn't work out as I had hoped. Maybe life is teaching me something.
I thought that a job prospect was happening. I did training and such but when the time came the reality was that it fell down the rabbit hole. The prospect that I thought was there turned out to be a dead end. Yet this time around I leave a bit more hopeful. This time though I am looking as this little hiccup as 1. money in my pocket, 2. experience that hopefully if help was ever needed again I would be first on the list to be called, and 3. something to place on the resume along with s couple of references to add.
My dad always tells me to do things mainly based on the theory of 'what do you have to lose'. This was definitely one of those cases. I really didn't have anything to lose by trying this opportunity out. Granted it didn't work out the way that I had hoped but there is still nothing lost. Nothing lost short of the job. That is life though. I do wish it had worked out in my favour.
Back to the drawing board...I will probably be more grumbly about that concept come a week or two from now. Only time will tell. We shall see what the future holds for me. Add that to the saying 'everything happens for a reason'.
