Well your job right now is finding a job. If you want to take the day off, fine, but then hit it tomorrow.

You'll likely get a number of rejections, but the employment fit is out there waiting for you. You just need to find it.

And it feels VERY personal, but none of it is, from the employers' end.

I am sure that you can find a whole bunch of support here though. Good luck with it.

Have a cry and some cake and then start afresh tomorrow. But if I hear that there has been crying (or indeed cake) tomorrow then you Sir are in BIG TRUB.

Good luck.

Good luck, sweetkid. Sometimes we all need a 'duvet diving' day.

If I recall correctly you posted about this in askmecha. They are gonna regret it, kid.
(And why didn't they get the memo? They are supposed to fire on FRIDAYS so you have a weekend to wallow then the eye of the tiger on Monday. Sheesh.)
Anyhow, ice cream and wallow. Then hit it the rest of this week, then a long weekend. But who knows, you might be snapped up by then!

Yeah, no, it was Sunday night. After my vacation.

Dude, if I ever get fired I'm taking a couple of weeks off, unless it is absolutely financially impossible. You only got kicked to the curb on Sunday, you spent Monday applying and networking, today's Tuesday and you're asking if it's okay to take a day off? Of course it is. Hell, take two, they're small.

They're called "mental health" days and are good for you. Remember, everything in moderation (including moderation)!

Take the day off, and tomorrow afternoon too - looking for new apply-for-work gear (after checking want ads or however you seek work in the morning). Nothing too expensive, just something that makes you feel "ka-pow-wow I'm great" at the interviews you will get. A shirt or something that you won't wear until the first interview. It's a mental good luck charm and will help kick you into applying for more work come Thursday.
