Not much to report today. The medicine is working, and I’m feeling better. I’m
trying to focus on getting a job, and not worrying too much about my
requirements for that. It just has to give me some kind of steady income, and
my employer can’t get hung up on my lack of social security number, or
whatever other info this country expects out of me. I’ve not found anything
yet. Unemployment seems to be rather low here. There are about as many jobs as
there are people, and my arrival has thrown off that balance. I don’t know why
I said that. I don’t really know how any of this works. I try to spend a
little bit of time every day getting an idea of what exactly is different
about this world, but there’s no real way for me to understand. My real
problem is that I don’t have any résumé to speak of. I mean, I do, but I can’t
prove any of it, since I lived in a different universe at the time. Still, I’m
putting out feelers, as they say. Nothin’ yet, but I’ll keep looking. It’s
only been a few days. I’ve spent months looking for work before, so I’m not
going to be discouraged quite yet. Then again, I was living in a lot of
privilege before. Now I have nothing to fall back on. I’m alone. That’s not
true. I have this great finished attic, and I’m so grateful for it. Still, I
don’t want to overstay my welcome. It’s important that I figure out how to
take care of myself. I think I’m going to have to start hanging out in the
side lot of a home improvement store as a day laborer, if that’s even a thing
here.
