Make It Happen For Women: Diary of a Job Searching Woman: Sept. 28. What about my career?
My boss was gone today. He’s probably out looking for a new job. The senior VP approached me to ask my help in keeping people calm with all the rumors mulling around the office. I told him I was up for the job and that he could count on me. What I really wanted to know was: Is my job safe? Do I need to start working on my resume so I can look for a new job? What about my career?
I left early, went home to balance my checkbook, check my credit card balances and savings account balance. I must keep calm. The company is not ready to close its doors. Have some faith for heavens sake. You’ve worked hard. They won’t lay you off.
I tried to keep my mind on my daughter’s chattering about her day as I prepared dinner. She got angry because I wasn’t paying attention. “Get a grip on yourself,” I tell myself.
Tried to find my old resume and can’t find it. Tomorrow is another day.
