I keep checking all over the Internet for new ideas for all of you who are still looking for positions to either work at home or work out in the brick and mortar world and the positions hiring continue to be those that are connected to the medical industry. This truly does make sense as our population longevity increases, these seniors will need more and more care.
The other day, there were some lists created of what are considered to be the most currently stressful jobs and those that are the least stressful jobs in today's economic climate and I thought I would go ahead and post them for you here.
Careers with the greatest amount of stress:
Real Estate Agent
EMT
Stockbroker
Architect
Advertising Account Executive
Newscaster
Photo Journalist
Sales Corporation Executive
Public Relations Executive
Commercial Airlines Pilot
Careers with the least amount of stress:
Audiologist
Dietitian
Software Engineer
Computer Programmer
Dental Hygienist
Speech Pathologist
Philosopher - Teaching in college or universities
Mathematician - in an academic or government position
Occupational Therapist
Chiropractor
I know that some of you are considering going back to college and are looking into professions where you won't have to worry so much about the economy pulling the rug out from underneath you in the future. Hopefully some of these positions above will give you some ideas of new career paths to look at.
All I know is that I continue to read where more companies are planning some major cutbacks and layoffs which is not at all encouraging to the workforce who are presently without a job and have been looking for a long time now.
All I can tell you is 1. Don't expect to return to the workforce at a salary you were making prior to being laid off, if you have been out of work for six months or more. 2. Be sure to continue with your networking of friends, neighbors, former co-workers, putting out the "feelers" because what might not have been available several months ago may be available now. 3. Continue to follow up on all of your resumes to see if anyone is in a hiring mode yet and to let them know you are still interested. 4. Be willing to accept a lower starting salary than you originally thought you needed 5. Be willing to relocate if the opportunity comes along.
Some of us, are not able to have the luxuries of as many opportunities to either go back to school and change careers or to relocate if the opportunity came along. Many of us are no longer in the age brackets that prospective employers are looking at to fill their ranks.

Out With The Old and In With The New
I have to share this story with you about some special people in my life. Both lost their jobs, both in their 40’s and both in very specialized career paths before this happened. I have always said that God gives you certain talents, which will enable you to survive, and both of them are living proof of this.
Having been a police officer for about 15 years, now in his mid 40’s being without a job was not only a shock but also emotionally shaking. This career had been the core of his life for all these years and now he would have to find another career path. Having always had an interest in medicine, this would be the opportunity for him to find the positive aspect in his situation and begin studying for this field. After attending classes, both on campus and on the internet, he decided to go ahead and apply for a position as a firefighter where he could utilize his medical schooling as a firefighter and EMT. Being in excellent physical condition, he was able to go through firefighter school and performed higher than many of the younger men in his class. After finishing firefighter school, it was time to apply for positions with different departments. Because of the recent freeze in hiring in the state where he lives, at the present time the only positions available were to get on as a reserve, which he has done. This enables him to keep up his firefighting and EMT skills until he can get onto a department permanently. It also allows him to spend more time at home, working as a mentor at one of the local high schools and coaching a sports team.
Then there is the Project Manager, also in his 40’s, which specialized in projects building the buildings where microchips are manufactured. After many months of attempting to locate another position with no results, it was time to deal with the problem directly and start a company to do home repairs and remodeling. With his organizational skills and building experience both of commercial and some residential building, it was logical to begin a home repair business. In today’s world, people are spending money to remodel and update their present homes rather than to sell, taking huge losses on their investments, and purchase another home. From the moment he let others know of his new endeavor, work orders have been constantly coming his way.
Both of these men seem to be so much happier now. They have learned that life may through you a curve ball, but you can still step up to the plate and hit a home run! If you are given lemons, make lemonade!
I guess what I am trying to tell you is that it is never too late to reinvent yourself, to pursue your dreams and your goals as long as you are willing to put in the efforts to do so. I can hear enthusiasm in their voices whenever I speak with them, they are excited about the new opportunities that they have and the new doors that have opened up for them in their lives.
I wish both of them much happiness and success in their new ventures.

Need A Little Help From My Friends
Just like those of you who are out there looking for work, it is always nice to get a little help from your friends.It is called networking and each and every one of you who is looking for work should be using this very valuable tool in your job hunt.
You are one of many who are out there looking for work. Let your friends know, don't suffer in silence! Let your friends, your church family, and any other acquaintances you might have know that you are looking. You might be surprised at the leads you generate. They may know someone or someone they know who knows someone who is looking for a person with your expertise!
If you keep interviewing with companies and don't get an offer, go ahead and contact that person who interviewed you. Tell them that you really appreciated interviewing with them and even though you were not hired, would they happen to know anyone else who might be looking for someone with your background. You might not have been a good match for their company, but you might be perfect for someone else that they happen to know who is hiring.
Now I am going to ask for some help from those of you who are following this blog or even if this is your first visit here. I want to know if the information I have been giving you has been beneficial to you? Have I provided you with some good ideas of how to find work in some new areas that you have not considered before? Have I been able to give you some encouragement? Are there any areas of employment or helping you prepare resumes or for interviews that you would like me to cover?
This blog is written to help you find employment, be it something temporary to hold you over and put food on the table and a roof over your head until you find that perfect job, or to encourage you to look at some new avenues for a career path. The best way for me to serve you is to have some feedback from you on how I am meeting those needs.
So come on, give me a shout and let me know your opinions. I would love to hear from you.

No Light At The End Of The Tunnel
From what I have been seeing in the news, hearing from others who are still unemployed and looking for work, the present employment picture is continuing to look very bleak!
Over the Christmas holidays some workers were hired in anticipation of more people in the stores, letting loose of their hard earned cash buying gifts for loved ones. The sad thing is, not as many people were hired for this time period and few were retained afterward and were thus put back into the unemployment line.
Unemployment figures are deceiving as to the number of people who are currently unemployed as many who were once able to collect their benefits have now fallen off the rolls and are no longer counted in that figure, even though they are not working. Some people have totally given up looking for a job and are now in total despair as to what they are going to do next to keep body and soul together. The two sections of our population who are being most affected by our current economic situation are young college graduates who are anxious to get out into the working world so that they are able to begin paying on their student loans which they encumbered and are now coming due and the older sector of laid off workers who are over forty years of age! Yes folks that is what I said, anyone over forty is having an extremely difficult time finding a job.
A disturbing article I read the other day, stated that many companies who are in a position to be adding on new employees are not even looking at anyone who has been unemployed for over six months! Their reasoning according to one executive recruiter, who happened to spill the beans, is that they feel anyone who has been out of work for over six months now has "outdated skills" especially if they are in the hi-tech industry.
Some career positions I am afraid will never come back after this recession is over. Many duties and responsibilities were incorporated into existing positions when companies laid off personnel and I don't see those positions being recreated later on. If you haven't been reading and keeping up with the times about what career positions are hot and will continue to be hot hiring areas, I would suggest you start boning up now.
I can not stress this enough, any position that deals with elder care will be in high demand. I don't care if it is a community that is geared to just elder living facilities, to in-home care for those who are preferring to "age in place" in their own homes, special medical facilities that deal with care and rehabilitation for the aging population will all be requiring employees now or in the near future.
Lets look at some examples and perhaps this might even give you some ideas about starting your own business:
Senior living apartment complexes often have shuttle bus drivers to take residents to doctor appointments, to the beauty shop, the bank and the shopping mall.
Senior communities, where there is a club house and lawns to be maintained hire yard workers Some of these communities also have a Registered Nurse on staff to help with minor medical problems and to help residents with their medications to be sure they are taking them correctly.
So gyms have special instructors who work with their elderly clientele to be sure that they are exercising properly.
Nursing homes and assisted living facilities use a variety of nursing staff, kitchen help, a dietitian for creating balance meals, as well as a housekeeping staff and grounds keeping staff to keep the facilities clean and inviting for both the residents and their guests.
Some seniors are no longer able to drive and might appreciate having some type of service that would either take them to the stores so they can do their own shopping or be willing to pay someone to do it for them.
Home Remodeling businesses are now looking at concentrating on doing nothing but making existing homes safer for the elderly to live in. From widening doorways to make wheelchairs and walkers easy to maneuver through openings, to lowering cabinets and cooking prep areas in kitchens so someone in a wheelchair can prepare their own meals to installing safety bars in bathrooms and redoing showers and tubs so that they are easily accessible.
Lawn care services for the elderly are going to be needed as more an more live in their own homes but are no longer able to care for their property properly.
Are you a bookkeeper or an accountant? How many elderly people do you know that need assistance in making sure that their bills are paid every month and their stock portfolios (if they are lucky enough to still have any) are up to date and in order.
I hope these give you some ideas on places that you might look for work or perhaps venture into business for yourself.

Hey Shutterbug!
Are you a good photographer? Are you one of those people who live to point that camera and take a picture of just about anything from a beautiful sunrise or sunset, to animals, old barns, and baskets of fruit on a table to a picture of a juicy steak on a plate? If so, you need to be turning your photography skills into a little extra cash for your pocket.
There are many websites on the Internet that will pay you for your pictures, no matter what the subject matter is. There are people who will pay a fee to download your pictures and use them on their websites and you are paid for that downloaded picture. How great is that?
In most cases, you will be required to complete an application with the websites you want to use to carry your pictures. Pay can range from 20 cents or 25 cents per download to as much as $7.50 or more, depending on the websites. Some require that you hit at least $50 in downloads before a payment is issued to you, but do not let that discourage you, if you have a good variety of subject matter that money adds up quickly. You can give a website either exclusive or non-exclusive rights to your materials. Be sure to read their contract agreement so that you can determine whether you are giving them the rights to your photos or if you are able to retain ownership.
Believe me when I say, there are people out there right now who are making a nice monthly income just off of the photographs that they are putting up on the Internet for sale. Here is a list of some of the better known sites although I am sure there plenty more that could and will be added to this list over the coming months as more and more people begin creating websites who are in need of art work for their website.
These websites are not listed in any particular order.

Crestock.com - with this company you can retain the rights to your photographs

So go ahead, take a picture of that bowl of ice cream with chocolate sauce or that cute kid with the dirty face from eating it! Alternatively, a picture of that sink full of dirty dishes to the dogs out playing in the sprinkler. You never know what someone is looking for from the most mundane subject material to those that you would most likely think someone would want to use on their websites.
Are you in need of ideas for subject matter for your photos? Just go browse the Internet for ideas, believe me, you will have so many ideas running through your head by the time you have spent an hour or two looking, you will feel like you are on a merry-go-round! Oh hey, there is a shot for you!
Get out that digital camera and get clicking and you will soon be on your way.
