T O P I C R E V I E WblueskyAfter losing my job in September (which was supposed to be a permanent thing, and was the first real job I had managed to get), I got another job in January. I was on a contract for 3 months and they have decided to terminate my employment mid-May (i.e. not renew the contract), because they have run out of funds. They let me know on Friday 13th, ho hum. I have another job which is part-time, but it's not enough money. I have submitted my CV for a full-time position there, but don't know if some of the others would want me to work there full-time (jealousy, etc.)I am so sick of all the job instability I have had over the years. I am trying to retrain and get another qualification, but it is extremely hard when all this sh*t keeps happening. It is my 44th birthday tomorrow, and over the last few days I have been seriously fed up. The job instability thing has been going on my whole life, and I don't understand it. My flatmate (also my SO, who has been a rock) has, over the last few years, managed to find his niche. Why can't I? My father also had lots of job ups and downs over the years, and my mother did not work at all (not even particularly in the house, though she was meant to be a housewife). They weren't interested in what I did for a job, only criteria were that it was something which "looked good". I never scored in that department, because I just simply couldn't get jobs! WHEN, PLEASE, WHEN, will things improve for me? I am trying to do everything in my power to make my life better. I have had a dreadful time for years and I seriously think there must be some hardship indicators in my chart. I do notice that Fixed signs, and Earth signs, never seem to want for anything. I have no Fixed signs in my chart, and no Earth. Perhaps I should adopt a more inflexible, Taurean attitude - they always get what they want, and are extremely smug the whole time (and I can't stand them because of that).
