Why? I have to come up with $6400 dollars this year. This is the most I\u2019ve ever had to pay. Usually, I have a small refund. Granted, I had an unusual year last year, with cashing in a small pension I didn\u2019t know I had, and a fairly sizable series of stock dividends.<\/p>\n<p>The problem here is that I\u2019m not working right now. It isn\u2019t going to help that my unemployment will be running out either this week or next, and I\u2019ll be working through my savings. If I don\u2019t find something in the next month or so, the Anger Central Primary Dwelling will have to go on the market. Where I\u2019ll live after that and what I will do with all the household items I collected with the former Mrs. Webmaster is unknown. My circumstances are very similar to what happened in 2008 when I was out of work for a good 11 months.<\/p>\n<p>Who do I blame for this? Well that\u2019s easy. I blame Barack Obama and the United States Government. If you\u2019ve followed this blog, you\u2019ll get the impression that I\u2019m not a fan of our current president or the morons in Congress. You would be correct. Thanks to them, along with the out of control bureaucracy, Americans are being forced to fork over most of their paychecks to the black hole in Washington.<\/p>\n<p>Back to my search for gainful employment, I\u2019ve submitted to around a thousand openings in the last 6 months. From that I had hundreds of phone screens. From there, I was able to get a grand total of 8 face to face interviews, some of them last several hours. From that, not one single offer.<\/p>\n<p>Last week I had three separate rejections, and three phone screens. (I have one more Monday) In most cases, I wasn\u2019t notified that I was out of the running, and in a couple of instances, I only found out when I asked where things stood. That is something else that angers me, the refusal of companies that you have actually interviewed at to follow up with candidates and let them know they won\u2019t be getting a job.<\/p>\n<p>Well, it\u2019s been a really bad year for me. Out of work for 6 months. Mrs. Webmaster decided she didn\u2019t want to be Mrs. Webmaster anymore, after 12 years together and the economy outright sucks thanks to Obama, the Democrats and the cowards of the Republican party.<\/p>\n<p>Sigh<\/p>\n<p>Thatisall (For now)<\/p>\n<p><i><b>~The Really Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p>[yasr_visitor_votes size=&#8221;medium&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all.
