If you can't send out 3 resumes a week you may want to tone down your job expectations. What will you do when the benefits are gone and you still do not have a position?

This is exactly what I was doing. I was sending out at least 30-50 resumes per week, and getting nowhere. I have three jobs right now - two part-time event security jobs, and I'm working for H&R Block as a receptionist for tax season. But that job ends April 20, and I'm looking for another one. I had to take my Social Security out early, thanks to EDD reducing my benefits to $88 per week.
