Jobless BF :[

[franc1sgmp]

Hindi ko gets kung paano napapatulan ng mga responsableng babae ang mga lalaking palamunin.

[stylishmomy]

^same here sis, I dont think I can love not even live with a guy like that.

[airish_2]

it happens to me ako yung walang work for 1 year pero di sya nagsawang suportahan ako ramdam ko din yung pagiging pushy nya na maghanap ako ng trabaho, and then thanks god nakapagwork din dapat talaga sa panahon praktikal na hindi talaga tayo mabubuhay na LOVE lang dapat realistic kesa maging idealistic.

[trew]

^ Pare tanong lang, so in those last 3 months, sino gumagastos sa dates ninyo?

I still pay for the dates, bawas muna sa dates while looking for a job. I still have enough savings to live by for the next few months.

@stylishmomy:
In the last 3 months I've been unemployed, I made sure to upgrade my skills. I have invested substantial time, effort and money so I can have a better career. I feel that I might lose track with the career path that I want if i am to take any other job.

Thanks,

Trew

[stylishmomy]

^good to know that bro, good luck with finding the job that you want hats off to your effort.

[trew]

@stylishmomy:

Thanks.

OT- what could it mean if the companies you are applying for do not reply to your application letter sent via e-mail or jobstreet, jobsdb? Is it advisable to walk-in so I can get an interview?
   
Thanks,

Trew

^I'm interested to know how long you will wait before giving up and just taking a lower-paying job.

You said you've already been unemployed for 3 months?  So what if 6 months na wala pa rin?  Or 1 year?

[stylishmomy]

^^maybe the position has already been filled?

Nothing wrong if you do the walk-in, maybe may impact ang presence mo good luck!

[ayka]

@ aquacharly: agree!

and sino ba naman siya para maging choosy sa trabaho? alam ba niya na millions of new graduates stay jobless for the first one or two years after graduating? di magkanda-ugaga sa paghahanap ng trabaho. [textspeak!] ba yan.

kaya kilatisin muna ng mabuti ang bf before deciding to jump into the wagon of lifetime commitment (if ever lang). 

[Kady_14]

know your worth, maikli lang ang buhay ng tao. If he's like that talaga nuon pa (ikaw lang makakapag sabi nito) leave him. Well unless kaya mo ang ganyang set up kahit may anak na kayo.

[redsh0es]

^^di ko naman pinagmamalaki sarili ko guys. pero before naman ako nakarating sa level ko ngayon nagdaan naman ako sa pinakamababa, working student ako dati sobrang hirap talaga mabuhay right?
lagi ko yung sinasabi sa kanya na talagang walang trabaho na may shortcut. talagang dadaan ka sa butas ng karayom para worth it ka sa position mo. ewan ko talaga sa knya bakit di niya magets yun.
everytime na napapagusapan namin yung work for sure away yan. pati nga siblings niya inaasar siya pag andun ako sa kanila. mabuti pa raw ako maganda career ko samantalang siya nakahilata at ng ffb buong araw. grabe ako ang nhihiya para sa knya.. same age lang kami pero parang mas immature pa siya sakin.

and if I may add, nasa marrying age na kami pareho. di kami makapag plano kasi nga wala kaming ipon. yung ipon namin dati nung may work pa siya naubos dahil inuutang niya kasi nga wala siyang pera. hay.

[melmedrano]

hi sis,

share ko lang sa iyo kung paano kami nakaalis sa ganyang situation nung dati kong boyfriend (now husband).

He's 5 years my junior, kaya nung nameet ko sya nag-aaral pa sya (overstaying na)... hanggang sa naging mag boyfriend kami. ako naman may matatag ng trabaho pero di naman masyadong malaki sweldo. IT ang course nya kaya encourage ko sya na mag service sa mga office/bahay, so naging self employed sya, hanggang sa magpakasal kami.

It was not easy kasi hindi naman everyday may client, so hindi everyday may kita sya. May times naman na may bigtime na client, he earns up to 17K in one day... so iba-iba talaga. At least ako may regular na income. Kaya ang pang everyday naming gastos kinukuha namin sa income ko, tapos yung mga kailangan for the wedding preps and malalaking purchase galing sa kita nya sa pagiging self employed nya.

Pero after namin maikasal, naghanap na ng work yung asawa ko... nag call center sya sa gabi habang tinatapos yung naiwan nyang units sa college. Hanggang sa makatapos sya at nagkaanak kami. Nagtiis sya ng maliit ang sweldo, halos break-even lang sa gastos nya yung sweldo nya, basta ang importante sa amin nun yung health card (kasi extended sa akin at may maternity benefits). Kaya maliit lang binayaran namin sa hospital nung nanganak ako. At syempre yung ibang benefits.

Tapos after ko manganak, kinailangan nya mag resign. Something happened to their account, basta naging magulo, at the same time gusto na rin nya na pang umaga sya kasi nga may baby na kami. Ang ginawa namin is nag training sya sa Meralco Foundation. Ilang linggo din yun, at the same time naghanap sya ng work... swerte naman na in a few weeks nakakuha na sya ng work sa isang bank (under agency nung una tapos inabsorb sya).

Hanggang ngayon dun pa rin sya sa bank na yun, at mas malaki na ang sweldo nya sa akin. :-)

Nakipaghiwalay ako sa ex ko ng dahil jan...
(Though he's the best among all men I've ever met.. - walang bisyo, faithful, gentleman atbp, as in wala na kong mahihiling pa except financial stability)
Nagpaka-praktikal ako...

Now, nasa abroad na sya and earning 6x higher than my salary..
Nalula nga ako eh.. hehe
No regrets naman, atleast okay na yung situation nya ngayon..
I'm happy for him 

*Minsan kasi kailangan pa natin makipaghiwalay para lang matauhan sila...

[jtansanco]

Remember, love does not pay the bills..

did he work harder to win you back.. if thats the case...

lets go write a book,, i was joking...

[kawen]

^^whef hope that kind of luck happens to my bf... sis eilegna.

Same situation, he's at home and a bum... Nasa kanya lahat except lang sa FINANCIAL STABILITY which is important pa naman these days.. I try to be supportive to the point I nag him everyday, I am making him realize how much time he's wasting now that we're both 28. I know he is willing to work hard for us pero I just can't see him do something about it, as in right now. His family is not well-off and may psychological problem pa siya... hayz....  he said he doesn't have the budget to come to Manila because of financial problems.. OH WELL - hope all is well.

[stylishmomy]

^sorry sis ha, what are the reasons why you're still with him? no motivation to work = no financial stability plus with psychological problem.

[eilegna]

@ Sis @JLO -- NO.. he can't.... If I'm single, I know he will (I'm his first girlfriend, first love - first in everything)

I have my own family now.. Pinili ko yung 'other guy' which is financially stable...  Pero ngayon hiwalay na kami.. Their personality is exactly the opposite.
Naloka ako..

Sisses, money is not always the key to be happy and be contented with your life.
Support your man.. Be patient and pray for him. God will take care of the rest.

As for me, I've learned my lesson. 

[stylishmomy]

^yes sis, i'ts not the key but its important it makes the world go round. I may appear na "mukhang pera" but I cant just settle for "okay" specially if you have children.

Just what jtansanco, LOVE cant pay the bills and to live in this world.. we definitely have to pay the bills.

[eilegna]

^right sis.. It just so happen that the one I've chose is someone whom I can't spend my whole life with.


Anyway, I'm still hoping and praying na maisave pa yung family namin.
