Looking for a job is a full time job in itself, only problem is that you're only paid a pittance for the work involved. It could also be a time for changing a few things like getting more exercise, changing eating habits, learning a language, etc
I was made redundant in November. Went to the gym,decorated and caught up with odd jobs. Now I am bored rigid. Spend most of my time now looking and applying for jobs. Hope you have better luck than me!
