Yesterday, I went to a local job fair. Diane went, as she is looking for work. I am retired. Over 1000 people attended for about 50 open jobs. I was there for over 7 hours. I was in a line that took over 2 hours just to turn in applications. While waiting in line, I was in front a couple of younger men, that were constantly making fun of people as they walk by. At one point, I saw one of our sisters coming in. I want to talk to her, but could not leave the line, and didn't see her again. I was treated like a lady. When addresses as ma'am, it felt good. I was very impressed that she was able to attend, but she did attract unwanted attention. These two guys, started their comments, one was, "I can spot them a mile away". I wanted to tell them that they had been standing behind one for 1.5 hours, and didn't notice. When I was leaving, one of the staff members said, have a nice night Ms. Lynn. What a great day.
I also joined a woman's fitness club, and is going very well. They have a pool, sauna, and a whirlpool, which meant a new swimsuit. I am just one of the girls, and am hoping to create some new friends.
