I'm proud of myself for overcoming my anxiety about not driving and trying to find more work in a field where lots of jobs need a license enough to research some places I might like to work and find out if they employ non-drivers. I was so anxious about ringing in case everywhere said it wasn't possible and I would feel worse. But the place I am most interested in employs non-drivers! And so do a few other places. Some don't have roles available right now, but said I can send a CV. And the places that do need a license were nice in how they responded and didn't make me feel like I was weird for not driving. I have much more hope I will find a job I like, even if it takes some time and am proud I started researching before my course is over in November as I was using that as an excuse to put it off.
