Im getting so frustrated!!! I quit my job as a Vet Tech in San Francisco to move down to LA cause my boyfriends job relocated him. It couldn't have come at a worse time since it happened right before the recession started. I thought I was gonna be able to get a job no problem, but that was 8 fucking months ago and STILL nothing!!! I interview every fucking day but no one takes me. I have an AWESOME fucking resume and a lot of experience working with animals, so I cant help but think that Im not getting hired due to the way I look. I always cover up my tattoos and the only visible piercings I have are in my eyebrows. God SF is so much more lenient on appearance than LA it seems. I actually had one doctor down here interview me and tell me that my piercings would give the clients the idea that he doesn't know how to hire competent workers. ???? WTF is that all about??? I always look professional in interviews and am 100% honest and sincere. Animals are my life and Im so fucking depressed that I haven't been able to work with them in so long. I don't know what to do, Im at wits end now. My depression is increasing, but all I can do is get up the next day and interview again. Aint life a bitch!
