Don't give up!

I graduated from Med. Assisting school in Dec. 2010. I had to quit the job that I had because it was doing inventory and they had very unpredictable work hours. With this said, if I had stayed working for them I would not have been able to go for interviews. So almost 5 months to the day, I finally found a job! I had almost given up, and was to the point of trying to find ANY kind of job, when I got a call this morning asking me if I wanted to work for them!! After spilling my coffee all over my robe, I said YES! It will be in a multiple physician office. I will be starting in the Allergy part then I will also work with the Asthma Physician and the Rheumatologist. I have put in dozens of resumes and went to equally amount of interviews. All of them slapped me in the face with the comment, "We need someone with experience". And of course, as you all know, you cannot get the experience if no one will hire you! But the powers up above answered my prayers, and found someone who would give me a chance! Keep the chin up. It WILL happen!
