I’ve lost over 10 pounds since I quit my job! (That reminds me, I forgot to post about that. Well, I quit my job after being there a month because it sucked. I got two paycheques out of it to pay bills, and now I’m spending time on my business and on looking for a real job).
Anyway.
That’s not a lot overall, but it’s a lot when the only lifestyle change you make is a massive reduction in stress level. School was stressful. The stupid job was stressful. Now they are gone! Yay!
I’m also able to grow my nails now. I usually tear them up when I get stressed or nervous, so they’re always short and stumpy and in poor shape.
Since I got rid of the things in my life that causes all-encompasing, never ending stress, they’ve grown very nicely, and I can deal with the normal amounts of life stress that people get, because there’s not a huge one in the background. Yet. That could change, the longer I go without finding a job.

In job hunt news: still no news.
I got a “congratulations, you’re on the short list for an interview!” email from a company in Mississauga, but that was back on June 19th so I’ve pretty much written that one off since it’s been so long since then and they said they’d contact me “soon” if I was selected for an interview. Damnit, that one sounded really good, too.

I applied for a lab technician job at McMaster University today.
I also applied through 2 “Microbiology Analyst” jobs, a Lab Tech, and a QA Food Tech job on Workopolis.
Busy day. My cover leters are all starting to sound the same.
