I was and still am trying to get my business going with zero budget. I have asked my friends to help spread the word but they have not done a good job.
I am trying to rely heavily on Social Media to get me noticed and get the word out. But I think most of the people are too self involved to help others.
I have two people who are trying to help me and one is someone who I am still getting to know better and one is someone I just met. But the people who are closest to me ….nothing.
I have helped a number of unemployed people in the WIND group and ask for them to help but again nothing.
I am sure there are those of you out there going through the same thing. You have helped others and now that you need help everyone has seemed to disappear from the radar and immediate vicinity.
Makes you wonder what this word has come to. Being unemployed gives you time to reflect on what is important to you and who is important to you. To re-evaluate your relationships and friendships.
It is a struggle and you feel so alone.
However, it is not a time to give up. Failure is not an option in my book and you should think about it as your mantra also. I refuse to demean myself no matter how bad it gets because I know who I am and what I am capable of doing and I mean something damn it!
I just haven’t found the company that deserves my talents or the company that has taken the time to recognize them. In this fast pace, take the easiest route world we live in there are a number of highly qualified people that are being overlooked for the dumbest of reasons.
My neighbor came over yesterday with a small care package of food for me. It is nice to know there is still some charity left in the world. It renews my hope and faith in mankind.
I will succeed in my new venture somehow some way as I said failure is not an option for me.
We should ban together and figure out how to fight the fight together for there is safety in numbers as well as strength.
Thee is no weakness in asking for help only strength!
Job seeking from a hunters perspective Blog 
I just became a 99er last week.
I have a bit of savings, but it won’t last too long as I make my mortgage payments. Everything else, every other bill except for utilities, car insurance, food, and mortgage will now NOT get paid.
I did manage to pick up a little part time job of 10-15 hours a week for minimum wage, but the $100 or so a week won’t really help.
Like you said, I feel very alone too. No one in our society seems to care, and the media and our so-called newly elected “leaders” paint us as being spoiled and lazy. Sure 15 MILLION American citizens are lazy! Right.
It is making me sick.
