A House Husbands Guide to Unemployment

As I have reached a milestone of 100 jobs applied for since April 2009, with believe it or not no real response. This has included entry level jobs, management jobs, supervisor jobs, basic retail jobs, almost every single thing you can apply for. But this isn't a post dealing with how horrible the job market is...because that would be kind of boring.

This is yet another series that I will write every once in awhile about what I do to keep myself occupied, because I have actually been asked that many times lately.

Today I will tell you about my unemployment beard. This is a beard that I am growing until I get an interview, it has been probably 2 months since I have trimmed it and I will not be trimming it until some kind of progress is made. I might do some touch ups so it doesn't get too horrible but the length will not be touched. I figure why not? Why not see how extreme I can take something that normally a working man would have to keep looking pretty. My beard is not the longest it has ever been but it is very close, in about another month it will be a lot longer than it has ever been. So grow an unemployment beard you unemployed losers...we must unite and fight the powers that won't hire us! This takes up every minute of everyday, so it keeps me pretty occupied... :-)

I have also messed around with the idea of shaving my head bald, Mr. Clean bald. I have always wanted to do it and who knows if that will be my next post! I would of course keep my beard though!
