After holding the same job for 10 years, I have been on/off unemployment for the past 1.5 years. I lost my last two positions quickly- one after 3 weeks, one after 9 days. I have since learned that I have cognitive impairment which is likely why I lost those jobs.
I have applied for disability but continue the job search- both because I need to in order to receive UI but also because I'd like to find something- at least part time. Which leads me to a dilemma. I received a call from an employment agency yesterday telling me about an opportunity that sounds great. I told her to submit me (I can't refuse after all). What do I do now? there's a part of me that thinks I could do the job if it's not that fast paced; the other part says I'm in denial since I thought I could do the other jobs as well. Do I go on the interview and purposely throw it? My natural inclination tells me to go for it and see what happens. Then the other part kicks in and says I could not cut it- even due just to fatigue issues. Has anyone experienced anything similar, and if so how did you handle it? Sorry for rambling....
