Job Coaching Starts and A Chaotic Day

My brother and I have finally settled into the new job coaching service. Three days a week, we’ll have separate mentors visit us to help find jobs and coach us how to do interviews. I had been using the term helper for the person who had that role but I learned the term mentor is more accurate. Last Tuesday since she was exposed to covid we talked virtually applying to half a dozen jobs and improving answers to common interview questions. Despite Christmas Eve and New Years Eve being sort-of holidays, we still meet on the former and will meet tomorrow on the latter. I thought I was a bit distracted during our first meeting but the mentor said I did wonderfully. I hope I can continue to meet those expectations and actually be able to find and hold a job, though it means I’ll have to drop some of my hobbies. She also determined I could and should learn to drive so I’ve been taking multiple choice and similar tests once a day. Hopefully all these new tasks won’t drain my energy for writing. I don’t know if I’ll continue socializing in my usual haunts but I’ll see as I get used to this new routine.

That’s all for now. I’m altering my writing schedule so I’m rewriting another original fiction story on weekends since I’ve lost passion for the fanfic. I’ll see how that goes. Until the first month of 2026, see you!
