Small window of opportunity

Today's post brought more refusals to job applications. Also two phone calls saying their recent part-time posts had been filled. As for my application to be a costumed tour guide for Oxford Castle... they didn't even respond!

What can I do? Surely I can be of some use? Is my age against me or am I just unlucky and if so, is it a temporary thing?

My business idea is on hold due to the encroaching recession and my not wanting to take out a small business loan at the moment.

My other idea is to go back to college and take a course in psychology or hypno-therapy... if nothing else I may understand why I'm being turned down and may be able to convince myself that I am worthy of a job.

I have just turned down a full-time job at a secondary school; the stress of which I really don't want any more, not unless discipline reigns supreme. Surely, someone out there needs a willing, able and fairly intelligent person to work part-time?
