Sheesh... I know, I know - I promised to be less tardy and more pro-active on this blog, but things have been... complicated. Here's hoping that you had a tolerable 2008, and may the New Year treat you better (despite its ominous beginning, economics-wise).Indeed! What with the all the things happening out in the World today, it is a wonder that any of us finds the time to write in our blogs - but fear nought, Dear Reader, as Ushiku Person has plenty of self-absorbed rantings to entertain you by!
Where to begin... well, first off, I had a job interview yesterday, and it went fairly well. Since moving to the Greater Chicago Metropolitan Area I have been furiously applying for work - to include pestering everybody I have ever met about possible employment opportunities (we'll call that "networking"). All that whinging might finally have paid off - I will hear by next Friday whether or not I got this job. The good news is that it actually sounds like fun, and it pays well - bad news, it means another move; this time down to Indiana. What is it? How does Lead Technician grab you? Me, a Technologist?
These days, if you have what is kindly referred to as a "well-rounded" resume (that's HR-speak for some square-peg fool who doesn't fit neatly into a round hole), you are looked at with a great deal of suspicion (and sometimes a little envy). But where would Samuel Clemens have been if he had spent fifty years as a stock clerk? We would have been entreated to The Adventures of Mr. H. Finn: Insurance Adjustor. "It is wiser to find out than suppose"
Cross your fingers, and let's hope for the best!
