Job Hunting

I guess I have reached my limit with my current job and need to go somewhere new. There is just not enough time to do what needs to be done and with more and more staff leaving, there is not enough people to handle it all. If LJ was feeling better, I might be able to push through. Though with her being sick, I can’t put in more than 60 hours/week. That is too much to keep up for a long period of time. Too much to do, too much stress, and then the added fun of knowing any extra work I put in will not be recognized at all. Kind of like the systems I build in my off time, I’d get a pat on the back with nothing much else to say for it. With just one income right now, it’s not a good scenario.


In the job search, I am 0/2. At MATC I was turned down without an interview. At the CSL, I did manage to get an interview. Working there would have been just about a dream come true, but it turn out not to be. I have an interview coming up with the Geology department with a good looking job and I’m applying to another job at the School of Business. Stay tuned for updates.


Then again, I have a meeting with a higher up in the company this week to talk about staffing. My tune may change after that, but we shall see.


On a happier note, check the Pictures link over there (=====>) for pictures of the new dog that is helping keep me sane.
