Special Treat – From Me!

A Weekend of What If’s

Carol Roach

July 2, 2006

Well my school is over. When I first started the French courses, I really didn't want to do it. For me it was just an effort to get a bit more money to live on. Welfare was not an easy existence; the entire cheque does not even pay my rent let alone anything else. But as I got into the courses I really started to like them and got the urge to go on. I asked if I could continue my courses after the 4 months allotted to me had expired. But the unemployment refused, so yesterday June 30th was my last day at school. I have the choice of going out and trying to find work myself or take a short job search program that starts on July 10th and lasts for 3 weeks. Trouble is I have to fall back on welfare for that. I am torn between what to do, what if the job search doesn't produce anything and I cannot even pay my rent on welfare. What if I find a job now and it’s the crap I was doing and I didn't like and I lose a golden opportunity that only came out of the job search but I didn't take it?

Of course I want to do whatever would yield the best results in the long run, but what is it?
