Re: Anyone feel like chatting?
It is hard, especially when the rejection emails came without feedback and I love feedback. I wasn't even asked for an interview. That really knocked me.
I don't mind being rejected, it's healthy and matures a person. What I dislike is how long it is taking me to get over the rejection. I feel the sooner I'm over it the sooner I can wow people.

Re: Anyone feel like chatting?
hi @outlander I think I dealt with my surgery nerves by distraction & not telling anyone about it irl - I felt if I told people they'd ask questions or say what could go wrong & make me focus on it more. I only told my mother (who is unfortunately abusive) as she was helping to pay for it and she was dropping me off & picking me up - I don't think the hospital allowed me to get a taxi. I had great faith in my surgeon & was confident she'd do a great job when the time came so I just put it out of my mind up until the last minute. I only had the cat to organise & live pretty close to the hospital.
That's so awesome you've organise yourself a private nurse & hotel room to recover in, what a terrific plan to protect & support yourself for the quickest & best recovery. You sound like an incredibly mature and responsible you person & I'm so proud of you you've organised your recovery this way. I'm sure the hopsital has excellent staff & it will all go very well
hi @LadyleahRDBloom yeah it's hard to bounce back from a rejection email. I dread checking my email 'cos now I epxect there to be rejection emails & not even an interview waiting for me in my inbox. It is rough. But give yourself a little time to recover, you'll be able to get back into the job applications when you're ready, you sound like a very strong & capable person. Hamsolo has been working away very hard at job applications, way more than I have, his thread is called ' new start kind' of if you want to drop in there.

Re: Anyone feel like chatting?
I may do just that 🙂
I've been through some pretty rough patches. There are things that have happened I wouldn't wish on my enemies. But my experiances have made me wiser and tougher. So I don't really regret them. Does that make sense? Nope?
Drat!
I really enjoy learning and I take professional reviews to heart. All I get from these emails are. We've had too many applicants. Your skills are impressive, please apply again. I don't know what to make of that and a big part of me is trying really hard to assume the worst.
Sigh.
It's tricky as isn't it?
When I have five mins I'll look at the thread.

Re: Anyone feel like chatting?
morning @Bill16 @outlander @LadyleahRDBloom @Adge @Shaz51 how are you?
hope everone had a nice weekend. I was brave enough to go to a meetup friday night with new people, it's the first time I've felt brave enough this year. it was good, the people were all really lovely & I hope to see them again. Then I did a 10km hike yesterday in the bush. Today I'm a bit anxious as I've got the telco technician coming to install the nbn and I am scared of having strangers in my home. Fingers crossed it goes smoothly and there aren't any glitches with the install.
how's the job hunting going @LadyleahRDBloom ? Are you feeling any better about getting back into writing applications?
