Looking For A Job In U.S.A

I always thought it would be easy to look for a job here. Well, there are so many vacancies in the kind of job I am looking for. I was pretty confident that I will land a job soon.

Three weeks of searching makes me think otherwise. Am I not good enough for them or they simply do not like me. I thought I have always been lucky in job hunting. Well, it seems to me that my luck has ran out. Patience is wearing thin. Anxiety is mounting. Temper is flaring. I seem to turn into a monster. Friends and family begin to console me that it will take a long while to find a job. So, meantime, enjoy the life I am leading now. The truth is I am not enjoying life of no income and I badly need retail therapy and massage pampering. And, I can't seem to have life's simple luxuries.

Oh, how long do I have to wait to find a job? Till then, it is back to job search.
