(My sister-in-law works at the Legislature library. She's got her actual MLS.) Not sure how helpful that will be, but I can ask. I often enjoy being unemployed, because of the not having to work part; it's just the not getting paid part that catches up with me. I spent about half of 1993 fruitlessly looking for work and living off of EI before giving up and going back to school on student loans.

I've felt this way for quite a while which is why I stopped accepting contract work last year, I just couldn't stand doing it. Thanks for the offer though~ @Amanda: I really wanted to apply for next year! >_< We just can't afford it right now though. ;_; Maybe in a couple years down the road. When you applied for page positions, did you ever even get a call back? I haven't had any luck even getting an interview yet. *Tear* Apparently the library gets a ton of applications for page positions though, so we're up against a lot of other people I guess. @Graham: Cold turkey for me.

I applied for library and information technology at Grant Mac for next year! Apply Brenna - we'll be together! Also, I can't seem to get a page job :( I hope you have better luck than me. Oh my gosh!

And I know just how you feel being stuck doing a job you don't want to do, believe me. You're good at it, so you know, for whatever that's worth. Took us a long time to really figure that out, but you are. Are you going cold turkey or are you open to contract work in that field (or design in general) to fill the gaps? Can't guarantee anything, but if I can help I will. Glad to hear it's not such bad news for you after all. And I know just how you feel being stuck doing a job you don't want to do, believe me.
