Times are not tough they are Rough

Why is it that when good things happen, the worst ones hit the hardest. My dog just tore her meniscus in her right leg this morning. What is crazy is September of 2007 she tore her meniscus in her left leg. The surgery is super expensive and I am going to have to get a second job yet again to cover the surgery. The only problem is we were not in a recession like we are now. There are absolutely no jobs out there. I am a librarian who is covering all of the available career seeker services and there is nooooooooooothing. The most important things is I have full time job with health insurance. I will do anything to make sure my dog gets the necessary medical treatment even if that means working at the Cheesecake Factory b/c that is like the only place hiring right now. Those two things make me think "Everything will work out" (as Charles always used to say). Does anyone have any ideas about where to find a second job?

Shit Amy! That sucks I'm sorry babe... Maybe you can get a job in the telemetry room on my floor. It seems they hire people with little to no experience, train on the job and pay well...I'll look into it and keep my eyes and ears open for other job opportunities! I wish I had lots of money to give you! If I won a $5000 (or however much it costs) playing the lottery I would give it to you. I will start playing tomorrow. Poor Bailey!! Love you!
