Dealing with call outs
I’m curious if others experience noisy co workers even management asking why you called out. And what do you say? I’m personally starting to find it annoying. Does anyone else find it annoying and what do you say?

Please wish me luck, or say a prayer for me! I am praying for all of us out there, particularly those of us in our mid-50s searching for a new role in which we can be happy, fulfilled and grow our careers (those of use not close to retirement)!
I am so tired of the rejection and tomorrow's interview seems like such a great position. I am trying hard to stay confident but it is not easy, since I have been rejected for so many roles.

Try for quality instead of quantity; don't just blindly apply to jobs rapid-fire using the same resume for each. Customize your resume using appropriate key words and apply for jobs you are well-qualified for. Also try connecting with someone from the employer using Linked In, and by all means let friends/family/former co-workers know you're looking. It sounds like maybe your resume is too generic or lacks appropriate key words and/or that you're applying for work you aren't obviously qualified for. The job market is tough and it's frustrating, but even with 1000 no's, all you need is one yes. Don't give up but DO get help with your resume and applications. If you're a recent college grad, get help from the career services department.
