Job hunting

[kimmi]

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?

sorry to hear that, oh well we really do have lots of adjustments..

have u tried going to ur nearest job center?or searching thru ur local newspaper?sometimes they do post local jobs in there.

like some have said here, as long as ur choosy we're sure u can find a job.

Goodluck..

My wife has been here for more than 6 weeks now and, to be honest, at the moment I'm in no great hurry for her to find a job as we are both relishing that special feeling called TOGETHERNESS. But I daresay the day will come when needs must ... and all that. Is there really any truth in the saying "two can live as cheaply as one"? Or am I living in 'Cloud Land'?

Ah good old Ipswich jobcentre. We were there on tuesday and hated every minute of it!
I guess you dont live in Ipswich though cos there are plenty of buses there taking you to all places.
I don`t know what your skills are but if I remember rightly, walk up to the centre of town from the jobcentre and there are a couple of agencies there.
I`ll get Chryss to PM you and maybe we could meet up us we arn`t far from you.
