Is there any Encore work in Gallup, NM?

Is there any Encore work in Gallup, NM?

I had been working with an internet provider in Gallup as an administrative assistant. Then was laid off on the 15th of May. I found a job five days later at a loan office but I was having a moral issue with their interest rate. Then after three weeks there I was terminated. Terminated!! Never in my life had I been terminated. My background is in clerical, secretarial and various tutoring, substituting jobs in the schools of Arizona. Now I need work again and we don’t have a job service in this city other than Work Force Development.

I was widowed for six years and now looking forward to marrying a man I met online and he’ll be here soon. He has high hopes of starting a catering business with his wonderful Texas barbeque. But my interests lie in education, arts and music. I lead worship at a church in Gallup and want to be able to find work at home if I can. I have a computer and printer but and would love to find work that will make a difference in the community.

Is there anyone in the Gallup, NM area that could use my experience in not only office work but creating business forms, organizing files, experienced in customer service on the telephone as well knowledgeable in computer programs of Word, Excel and Access. I am self taught in most areas of computer. I have a blog on my space and blogger. I enjoy writing poetry, music and always taking photos.

Hang in there. It is very hard to see success right now when in truth its been with you for most of your working life.
Also don’t confuse and encore career I ( a subsititute for retirement) with a job. I think there are two categories of folks out there. Those who have successfully surfed the American dream and can afford to ‘give back’ and those who are struggling to stay afloat with values while searching for a way to survive and live with their values intact.
