Nose to the grindstone time

It's not like I haven't been looking. I have -- the way we used to look; the best job at the highest wages possible. I guess it just took me a little longer than most to believe we are in a real depression. So now, instead of waiting for the jobs to come to me (like in the past), I'm going after them.

I posted my resume on the technical sites and just for shits and giggles, I opened an account on LINKED-IN. This one makes sense to me. I'm not a Twitter, Face Book type person. I prefer living instead of keep the world apprised of my every move. Trust me, unless you're a real wing-nut the world doesn't give a royal shit about either of us.

Okay, so I even posted a warm, smiley picture. Yup, I look like someone I'd hire. I went to past agencies I'd used and asked for referrals (I moved to a different state) to their counterparts. Funny, but some of them are closed! Holy shit, I must have been sleeping for the last two years.

Still plugging along, trying to find, not my perfect job, cut one I can do well and at least -- stand! Well, until I win the lottery. Then it's off to the Caribbean to teach Project Management, under a palm tree.
