Appointment with Employment Counsellor

Did an employment counsellor actually do SOMETHING for me? We debated school and work and all in all I said I wanted to find work with decent wages. She suggested the workability program. It is a twelve week program where I get paid to work for non profit organization. They should pay for my daycare and transportation.

I am concerned that my worker will not be willing to pay the high cost of daycare and transportation out here, but we will see. Small, baby steps.

Maybe this is what I need to boost my self esteem? I will miss my son but I am certain he will have fun wherever he is at :) Hopefully, he doesn't get sick though. Those are other things I need to think about. If I miss days of work, I will miss out on money.

It is really not easy trying to make it in the world as a single mother. Guess, I should of thought about that before I had a baby.

Nonetheless, I don't feel like killing myself very much today. That's a positive note. I'm supposed to be at home resting so away I am to nap :) Please comment if you read my blog.

  2. The workability is great, and if you get your foot in the door than there is a possibility they could off you a full time position with the company you are placed!!! They will pay your daycare although you may have to pay 5.00 a day which is better than paying full price, and tehy will give you a bus pass so you can come to and from work unless employement is available in your area of living. GREAT NEWS!!!! There is a reason why they have a rearview mirror and a windshield...a rearview mirror to leave things behind and a windshield to see what is in front of you. SLOW AND STEADY wins the RACE!
