After 13 Years... I have no job..

I was loyal to my employer... I was at work every day... Rarely ever calling off. It had to be something earth shaking for me to call off. I even showed up when I wasn't feeling well, thankful for HAVING a job.

I even went and paid to go to school during the weekends to help and get my license. Enabling me to do more with my job and with clientele. Office accounting, scheduling, creating ads and fact sheets, discussing situations with clients, troubleshooting and taking care of my daily routines.

Then, after 13 years... I was let go. I was lost. I'm still lost. The job market here is bad. I have applied and left my resume at dozens of business'. I have called each place and have been told many times I'm over qualified. Overqualified???? I don't care!! Just give me a job so I can pay my bills!!

I always thought I'd have this job.. I always thought I'd retire there. I thought I was one of the lucky ones that didn't have to worry about downsizing or losing my means of living.

However, here I am.. sitting behind my computer, unemployed and struggling for money. I have so much to offer a company, but no-one is willing to take a chance on me. I just want a chance to prove myself, to prove my loyalty and to prove I learn quickly and do my work efficiently.

I lost my job, going through a divorce and have no money. I'm thinking things just can't get worse.

I am an emotional person. I don't want to be fucked over, I don't want to be fucked around on or lied to. I'm very simple. Simple to make happy. All I want is for someone to love me back, have a job and be happy. That's all. Is it too much to ask?
