The staring match is hard enough if it goes on too long, never mind the selling game to follow. (I have one of those 'but what exactly do you DO?' job descriptions too --- the 'writing' part is easier to get across, everything else... not so much)</p> <p>At least you'll have your Trinity coat to let them know *subliminally* you are the superwoman that you say you are!</p> <p>@Andie --- Fingers crossed for you too. Hang in there and keep that chin up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817704 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 05:19:32 +0000 rae 817704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ugh, that stinks. It always kills me when smart, talented, creative people are looking for work - especially since I feel the quality of our creative arts in this country is getting to be a bit questionable. At least on a whole. Best vibes being sent to you. xoxo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817681 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 04:32:21 +0000 Transcona Shannon 817681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That just plain sucks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817678 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 04:28:46 +0000 Nadya 817678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to hear you're dealing with such silliness. Sending you good thoughts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817659 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 03:56:00 +0000 Isabel 817659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IK, good luck. If stopping your shopping gives you a sense of control, then do it. Please keep us updated. </p> <p>Andie, I am so sorry to hear that. I can't imagine going to work every day and not knowing if it is the last. It is soooooo tough to make a decision in those situations when the economy is bad. Hang in there and keep us posted.</p> <p>I just want to say that I hate employment self-justification. It is the same thinking behind giving oneself an annual review. I HATED it. It really puts people on the spot and completely takes away any ownership and responsibility of the employer. In other words, if they let you go, they will say, SHE said she couldn't do the job. UGHHHH !!!!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817627 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 02:58:58 +0000 Debbie 817627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope your job woes are sloved soon. Lots of positive thoughts coming your way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817623 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 02:56:39 +0000 Caro in Oz 817623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It doesn't feel good when people don't recognise your talents. Chin up, it's good to vent here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817617 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 02:42:09 +0000 christieanne 817617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sending you my most positive vibes IK! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817613 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 02:34:55 +0000 Andie 817613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know exactly how you feel .... have been there for the past 3 months .... every week wondering when the ax will drop ..... not fun at all ..... and for some of us, selling ourselves is not an option - that has already been decided for us ..... but let us not let all this bring us down. Cheers! And all the best! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817578 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 01:51:52 +0000 Thistle 817578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hoping for the best for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817572 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 01:46:11 +0000 Suz 817572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you ordered your coat before you go this news.

I have to go sell myself. It's so fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817568 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 01:42:39 +0000 annagybe 817568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh that sucks! I sweat bullets every time I hear of state budget cuts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817566 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 01:42:00 +0000 Amy 817566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Will you have to train the people who have no idea what to do? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817564 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 01:41:30 +0000 Mo 817564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That was me this last spring! I totally hear you. Hang in there. You have that beautiful coat coming, don't you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817562 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 01:41:19 +0000 Jaime 817562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are still big and important to those that matter IK! Relax - I would probably run out and buy shoes so don't be hard on yourself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-stall---job-in-doubt#post-817560 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 01:36:49 +0000 ironkurtin 817560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One word: BLEARGH.</p> <p>No more shopping until I know what is going on. I HATE looking for work. I used to be big and important. Now I'm insignificant and unhirable, shilling maybe 1/4 of my job skills to people who have no idea what I do.</p> <p>Deep breath!</p> <p>And no shopping!</p> <p>Except for the Yoox final sale boxes I have in the mail! </p>
