Looking for jobs sucks, I'm devastated by the prospect of leaving Chicago, and my spouse and I have been sick for weeks with pneumonia. But I truly know I'm in hell because my feverish brain has earwormed the worst song by Heart ("All I Want to Do"). Why couldn't it have been "Barracuda" instead?? 😩
Violet, better health and I hope something in Chicago opens up for you to continue your stay.
I, too, am struggling to find work in Chicago & have been for a while, also considering other places to look, even though i adore the city… we’re not alone in this hell, at least 😅
I'm so sorry about all the suckiness, Violet.
{{{hugs}}}
I’m sorry you both are ill on top of everything else. I agree re that song. 70s Heart. So much better than 80s Heart. I got to see them at the Hollywood Bowl ten years ago and they were amazing.
If you're waiting on a response from me, I'm sorry, I'm in bad shape right now.
I'm sorry to hear that you and hubby are both ill. I hope you both get well very soon. This side of the Atlantic we have what we're calling the "90-day cough". The moment you start feeling better the coughing starts all over again. Strongs my friend! 🤗
I'm hoping for better days ahead for both of you... and soon!
Hope you feel better soon! ☹️
wishing you both full recovery & relief soon. good luck with the job search—what an awful time to have to get a new job! do you have enough support?
Oof. The job search alone is rough, but being sick on top of that... *hugs, if you are OK with them...*
I'm so so sorry, this fucking sucks.
Oh Violet I am so so sorry
what about baby shark? or this is the song that never ends? or goodbye earl? (earl can be substituted with other names)
Oh man, I'm sorry friend.
That all sounds awful :( Apologies if you’re not looking for advice/help, but Boston Pub Lib has a high-level cataloging gig open (posting is on city website). It would mean moving to Boston & I don’t know if it otherwise fits your bill, but there’s a great crew there. (I’m adjacent, in SCx)
Happy to chat or connect you with some of the people there, though you might already know some of them!
Sorry on all accounts
