What Kind Of A World

 

That´s all I can give you as my world falls apart as I´m accused again for not finding a job in hard lockdown.

To all of you who have one: Yay.

I loose... love... respect.
Like maybe many of you.

Henry 🦁.
Henry...


He´s mad at the world.
Of all the lies the politicians give us and make our world collide. Making jobs unavailable.

He´s mad at the ... not understanding how bad it is to have no job and hence... what is the reason to get up at 06-something a.m. (I do!!!! - in the dark and cold).

Since darn March LAST year we´re stuck and I have to carry bad consequences.

 
Another bad day, as maybe many have. Let´s smile, if quirky.
 
And... Ella is right, " Life is life"! - Turn on the sound here goes (No idea why they start with "live" - do you?)!
 
 
                      
 
What would we do without friends and... music. 
This song is from an Austrian band, from 1984 - can you believe this - could be from today...

I like the cheeky grin Iris. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals.
Sorry that things aren't going well, not easy being without a job, but the pandemic certainly makes things much harder.
As you say, lucky are the ones that have a job.
A big hug to you xxx

Kathy, that´s a car of one of the Braunschweig (now called New Yorker)-Lions defense players in American Football :-)
Yes, try to stay strong... I do.

Ella said...

Hallo baby, did you miss me? LOL
The cheeky grin is a beautiful sight in these times!
Actually we should all have such a cheeky grin ... maybe Corine is afraid of ... LOL with a big grin!
Why are you making such a "big deal" that you don't have a job? You're not alone ... and you have arranged everything properly, right? Life is life baby!
I've missed you mine 🐘 !!!

Ich hab dich liiiieb !!!
xoxo

Iris Flavia said...

My dear Ella, yes, I did miss you! Your blog was off again and I worried.
Yes, let´s freak her out with grins, huh!
I don´t make that a big deal, someone else here does. And it hurts me very badly.
Oh, thank you, now I have an awful earworm!!! Do you know this terrible 80´s song?

But reckon you are right. And the text is true.
I´ll add this!!
Ich hab dich liiiieb mein 🦋
xoxo

Off to yours!

Ella said...

Is one of my favorite songs ...
I can dance until my toes turn blue ... LOL
xoxo

Iris Flavia said...

Blue 🤣 - OK, let´s go, DANCE!

Tom said...

...that's quite a grin!

Sorry to hear things are a bit touchy again Iris, I don't understand why especially as you have your own finance. All you can do is keep looking and enjoy life while you are looking 💜

Ella said...

Hathi got email ... xoxo

Please please accept my big hugs to my dearest big sister! I am back after a loooong time! I missed my sister and her blog that always cheers me up and I hope and pray that you also cheer up. I had awful news as well at the beginning of the year. the interview that was awesome was not so awesome at all because I did not make it to the job :( But hey, I just kept reminding myself that maybe it's just not for me. So I have to stay at my current work and look at the brighter side of things even if they just keep getting harder. We can do this dear Iris! Let's hope for a job, a great one, for us coming very soon! Sending you big hugs!

DVArtist said...

Iris, I am so sorry you are being treated badly. It is not your fault. Shame on who is treating you this way. You are a beautiful, strong woman and you deserve much better. Just my opinion.

RedPat said...

I am having one of those days too but tomorrow will be different and better I hope. I'm heading out for a long walk in the sun to clear the mood.

dee said...

What a fun mural! :)
It's cute, too. :D

Iris...nothing lasts for ever -- not even bad days. The vaccine's here. Things will get better, soon. And the world will have a lot of catching up to do. ;)

Stay strong. Keep meeting the day at 6am and keep blogging.
Hugs!!

Bill said...

Stay strong, Iris and give us one of your big happy smiles. Everyone has them and they're contagious just like the virus. Spread the smile! :)

Finding a job in lockdown is a bit hard when nothing is open and businesses are closing, I had the same battle here, in the end I sent a facebook message to one of our local garden centres asking if they had any work, it was just by chance they'd had someone leave and when we went into level 2 (out of lockdown) they gave me the job, I pray something like that happens to you.

Jeanie said...

I know this may not help but please tell him that in America the job unemployment rate is just about as high as it as ever been -- and maybe the highest -- not sure on that one. So many things are closed and people just aren't hiring. I'm sure it's not for lack of trying.

William Kendall said...

I'm sorry that you're having a difficult time of it.

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

Love the grin. Sorry you are unable to find work, but it's the same story all over the world. In the states, we are losing more jobs than we gain.

My name is Erika. said...

Do you think someone who has such a mad Henry on their car is trying to look tough? Right now has to be a really hard time to find work with covid. Stay strong.

Carola Bartz said...

I remember that song! And I like the cheaky grin.
I'm sorry about your job situation - it sure is a sucky time to look for a job. It's not like the economy is booming right now...

peppylady (Dora) said...

What grin
Coffee is on and stay safe

Iris Flavia said...

Grace, it´s frustration on both sides. Ingo´s job turns crappy and I have none at all... potential, you can say...

Ella, thank you, hopping over! xoxo

Oh, Stevenson, I was about e-mailing you cause I worried! How weird are we??? Same with the job, sorry to hear. You try again, will you? I had a phone-date with my counsellor and she applied three times for the same job and finally got it! After hard lockdown I´ll just try again - mamagers/situations may´ve changed! Big hugs to you, dearest Stevenson!

Nicole, thank you - I think everybody is frustrated by now. Some work too much and others not at all...

____

RedPat, I did walk, too, if in grey weather - laugh about me on following post (it WAS funny).

____

dee, thank you, you are right, so let´s smile and go through this! Hugs back!

____

Bill, thank you, join me laughing today :-)

____

Jeanie, yes, it does help. It´s in the news, it´s everywhere but frustration rises and rises...

____

William, thank you, yes, not funny.

____

Elizabeth, we need to smile. Yes, everywhere it goes down the drain....

____

Carola, that song drove me nuts, LOL. It stayed on like forever on the radio! Not booming is another word for... yikes!

Dora, we must!
