(3,580 posts)I don't know your situation but even if you have savings, it is scarey to not know when you'll get a paycheck again. But you are so warm and real and if you talk the way you write, you'll blow them away in a job interview.

They are sweeping the old peeps out. The youngsters, they can pay them so much less.

(3,580 posts)We're afraid to stand up for ourselves anymore. We had a patient that was violent towards us, us old girls took him down but when we complained we needed a couple of male staff they told us if we couldn't do the job to retire.
I was joking when I said we should all move into my house and retire. Start an old lady commune but it's starting to make sense.

(1,771 posts)I saw where you mentioned that your age may be a factor. Believe it or not there is a shift in hiring - many companies are seeking 'older' employees because of their life and business experiences. Regroup. Process things a bit. Seek advice from others. Until then..........

Of course there are sites such as Indeed.com, dice.com, monster.com etc.
LinkedIn is also good for networking connections.
I hope you find your dream job
