3. No Monty on hand.. no money to go rent...
The cable was shut off so no hope of it randomly being on tv either.

Actually doesn't it take both?

7. Well.
Doctor visit costs 45.00
Xanax prescription costs about 9.00
We could start a fund raiser.

8. Meh..
If we were having a fund-raiser I'd just as soon it went to the ACLU or Amnesty Intl. instead.

I think my chances of flipping out will drop significantly if I find a job.

9. Don't flip out!
Contact *Florida* unemployment and see if they might pay you. Some states will pay out-of-state for people who last worked in-state (Wisconsin did that for Otter for a while).

12. Never hurts to ask.
Plus, we need to work on your resume and on getting you not to undersell yourself. You're so focused on not over-hyping your abilities, you tend to downplay the things that would make you a strong candidate.

13. *shrug* I guess
I don't know any other way to be though. :shrug:

I guess it's that lack of jealous ambition and desire to move up.. I just want to get a nice job and be cool at it and do it well...

14. No; it's lack of sales strategy
All the ambition you need to have is the ambition to get a job and keep it. But you seem to lack belief in yourself, and it makes your self-presentation seem uncertain.

15. I am sure you are right..
I find it much easier for others to evaluate those sort of aspects of my persona than to see them for myself.

16. Yeah, and for ambition...
I'll have you talk to Jager; he's good at ambitionizing people. But really, it's initiative that's the issue (not ambition); *what do you want to do in life*?

17. Man.. all I want right now is a job...
I could care less if it is digging ditches or frying hamburgers. I need money and I need it yesterday.

Security would be nice, I have a calling in that direction. Then, you already know that.
