Finding employment in Houston............






             
  It seems to be the hardest thing to do these days.....  with unemployment rates rising and companies  continuously laying off employees, people are becoming discouraged. The workforce is crowded, it's like future employees are fighting for jobs. Well with that said, I took the liberty to help find ways to make money and tips on how to find the right job for you. First off, we will look at some of the things that can possibly stop you from finding a good job, we will start with appearance. Overall appearance plays a big role in job-hunting, employers want to see their future employee in business professional attire, not in everyday street wear. When attending an interview men should be sure to be clean shaven, hair should be groomed, clothes should be cleaned, ironed, shirts tucked in, and belts if pants have loops. There should be no jewelry, unless it's a wedding band, earrings, necklaces, gold teeth, are prohibited and should not be worn to an interview. Women should dress appropriately, pant suits, skirts should be knee length, with a minimal amount of jewelry, hair should be combed and out of face, unless you have bangs, they should be trimmed and out of eyes, and you should not wear open toed shoes, or flip flops. Women if you do not have the income for the proper clothing , you can visit http://www.dressforsuccess.org/ and they can possibly help you with clothing to wear to interviews. You would have to check the website and check the requirements.


                 The economy, something that we all have to live with and in, is downsizing in jobs, on a daily basis job loss is becoming an issue, so many people are looking for jobs an not many of them are finding them. The most important thing is to keep a positive mind about the entire situation of being unemployed, you cannot expect positive things to happen if you are negatively thinking. Try to read your spiritual book daily to keep you in the positive direction.  Below are some links that will help you find a position that is suitable for you. Click on either link and it should go directly to the site. In this post and future ones you will find all you need to acquire a position in a work environment that you will enjoy. There are a lot of places on the Internet to look for jobs, even odd jobs, and I intend to put them all within this blog, so if you haven't found the right position, continue reading. I went searching for some jobs ad I found out that the city of Houston is hiring for various positions, if you feel that you are the perfect candidate, feel free to click the link and apply.. http://www.houstontx.gov/. So in this blog I am going to cover the outside jobs as far as in the work field. If you want to check out the worksource you can register at http://www.workintexas.com/, then call your nearest worksource and speak with a career advisor, they can set you up with different jobs and help you with a resume. See the object is to tweak your resume' to fit the job that you are applying for. Visit http://www.youtube.com/ and watch some videos to learn different things, use them as a training technique to teach you to do various jobs so that you can expand your skills. Well I am going to end this blog for now!!! Til next week folks, happy hunting!!!!

Why We Should Find Alternative Ways of Living to Avoid Eviction & Homelessness

                   It was a sunny day in June when we found out our landlord wouldn't be renewing our lease, the day was going great, I made a couple of sales, business wasn't great but it was paying bills. I was talking to my husband in "the shop" (the tiny home in the backyard that turned out to be the perfect workspace) about the rodent problem that we were experiencing when my oldest son came in with the mail. There it was, a notice that our landlord wouldn't be renewing our lease. The talk of rodents went elsewhere, we immediately went into survival mode thinking and planning what would be our next move. We were starting over with the house, at the top of our budget at 1400 dollars a month plus utilities.  The duplex we lived in before the house was great for a Sunnyside Duplex,. The landlord kept it up, but there was a shootout there, and that raised concerns with my husband and I, which caused us to look for another place to live. So we found thou house wit

The Art of Bouncing Back: Steps to Pick up the Pieces and Start Again

       B ouncing back, picking up the pieces, picking up yourself, starting over, whatever you want to call it requires a whole lot of patience and perseverance. When we fall, man, we tend to fall hard some of us have a hard time getting back up, some of us need a boost or some kind of motivation to get out of the slump. Don't feel bad, we have all been through it. Falling on your face will surely make you feel like shit, but you got to get on up now! (in my Jodeci voice) the comeback is always phenomenal so don't trip. Find your Reason.      Shit happens in life, we got to be prepared for everything these days, but when we aren't prepared and shit just hits us back-to-back it throws us off track, well it is up to us to hop back on the saddle and ride till the wheels fall off, or the hooves, whatever.
