Trust,...I'm always for moving to something new. Trust, when we moved to VA and realized we didn't like it I felt such an obligation to stay there since we had invested money and time into being there, and so many people had helped us out. When it came down to it, being unhappy just was NOT worth it. I know you can do it!!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18232672247334137723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3487643911041532546.post-42405988911375290762012-08-08T13:37:03.967-05:002012-08-08T13:37:03.967-05:00Ashley - if you're miserable... don't stay...Ashley - if you're miserable... don't stay in that position!! Something you enjoy will come along even if it takes some time... Life is too short to waste it on some job that makes you depressed and sad. Something wonderful will come your way - it just takes time here again! Best of luck with your search if that's the way you decide to go! xoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3487643911041532546.post-55208199000186247972012-08-08T12:58:30.137-05:002012-08-08T12:58:30.137-05:00Ashley I can honestly understand where you're ...Ashley I can honestly understand where you're coming from. I am 22 and newly out of school and for the past four months I have been unemployed. I was seriously doubting everything because I had gotten offers in other areas, but said no to them because I'm in the same boat as you: my family, my friends and my life are here in Chicago. I'd applied for more jobs than I can count and had a few interviews, but no luck. But then today, the impossible happened and I got a teaching job. It is my first job and there are a lot of unknowns, but I'm excited to see where they will lead. I would do whatever you think will be the best for you: if it's financial security and you love having family and loved ones close by, I would stick it out and then try contacting anyone and everyone you can to try to find a new position that you think would be better. Plus, with family and friends close, you have their support, help and guidance. But, if you are thinking that you would like a whole new career that would bring you more joy and find enjoyment in the unknowns of a new place, then I'd try that. I know a lot of people who are happiest when they are faced with an unknown and starting clean. I'm not one of those people (at least not presently), but a lot of people love it. I truly have faith that everything will work out for you and that you will make the best choice for you. (sorry this was so long! But I can definitely relate to how you feel!)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09749821450283856941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3487643911041532546.post-57384013158845930772012-08-08T10:52:50.212-05:002012-08-08T10:52:50.212-05:00As a fellow Chicago girl, who has worked in the Ch...As a fellow Chicago girl, who has worked in the Chicago fashion world, I feel your pain. It is true that there are few companies here to work for in this industry however they do exist. I wouldn't get discouraged because of not enjoying your first job. To be honest mine was miserable most of the as well, however at 23 you have plenty of time to sort things out. Stay positive and be proactive and things will come together.<br />XX,<br />MorganMorganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17381732745299325303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3487643911041532546.post-11161081442772297072012-08-08T10:07:55.036-05:002012-08-08T10:07:55.036-05:00girl dont worry - everyone goes through those phas...girl dont worry - everyone goes through those phases but if you feel like you need to make a change, you should!
