Job hunting

[adam&chryss]

It's so depressing, I have been here for exactly 2 months now and still no luck in getting a job. I feel so useless because I am not contributing financially to my husband. He's paying all the bills alone and still trying to pay off credit card debts that he used to get me here. It's just so difficult if you can't drive and get nowhere. Unlike in the Philippines, if you have the address of the company, you can just take a taxi and directly go there or ride a bus, jeepney, tricycle or MRT/ LRT. So many forms of transportation but here, it's so hard!!! unless you can drive and have your own transportation. I have been learning how to drive, I used to learn twice a week but now,only doing once a week bcoz of financial constraint..To all Filipina wives here, I am just wondering how long did it take you before you got a job?

Here you can get a taxi too!
Don`t feel useless, its not the holy land here. Its hard for everybody.
Dont set your sights too high and i`m sure you`ll be able to find something.
My wife,Chryss, hasnt looked for work yet as shes just given birth to our son so I cant answer that question.
Good luck and dont get disheartened!

it took my misses more than 6 months to find a good job working in the nhs,

you can get a bus(es) to most places and you might be able to buy a monthly bus pass

use this to see if you can easily get a bus/train etc to where the job is..

Yes I'm sure you can get a taxi here in some places but not in my place. And even if there are taxis around won't be able to afford it anyway... Congrats to your son! Bet he's a cutie!
