Let’s find a new job!
The countdown has officially begun! Six days and five shifts until vacation starts. It is more than needed. We are catching an early flight out of Dulles on Saturday morning and arriving just in time for Ayer 4th of July festivities. Then Sunday I am headed to the much longed for vacation house where I plan to swim, play, drink, barbeque, and spend as much time outside as I possibly can while bothering every member of my family to the extreme to let them know what they’ve been missing. I am ready. I have been fighting back starting to pack for the past week. Really, I am so ready.
As for life here in Virginia, it is… well… making me want to take a vacation. I have a wonderful apartment, wonderful company, and a few good folks that I work with. However, I need a new job. I spent the majority of this morning looking for jobs and coming out pretty unsuccessful. Part of me feels I need to go back to school in order to get the kind of job I want. But I already did that! I still haven’t paid off the Bachelor’s degree yet. I think I may talk Cyndi into getting her teacher’s certificate with me in whatever state we go to next. I’m leaning more towards environmental groups, non-profits, safety, conservation jobs but those results either have me in Washington, DC asking people on the street to donate, or require a much more advanced and specific degree that I really really don’t have. Suggestions? I really shouldn’t complain. I mean, my job is easy, I get to wear ripped shorts and t-shirts, and it is a very easy trip by bus to get there. I just have a feeling that I have reached some retail coma where customer service doesn’t come as easily and my bosses are morons.
We have been going swimming pretty often. I am so damn thankful that we found an apartment with a pool.
Posting again soon… some more comments on job hunting as well as growing things and writing.
