On Monday I found a job I was very interested in on an employment web site. In order to apply for the position, you had to go to the employer’s corporate web site. I had applied for another position at this company a year or so ago and so I…

It Has Come To This
I am doing the job search and saw the following in a posting: “Exciting opportunity for the right individual.” What I thought it said was: “Exciting opportunity for a right-handed individual.” Professional help? Anyone?
A Revelation
It is 90 degrees here in Eastern Pennsylvania today. I’m beginning to think this whole job search endeavor has been for naught as it seems the world just might be coming to an end. For it to be this temperature the first week of April is really an anomaly. They…
Spring Has Sprung
I just finished doing the job search, the second one in less than 24 hours. Yesterday I found a few jobs I’m going to apply for and then there was another one today. I’m going to tackle those next. It is almost 80 degrees here today which is crazy for…
President & CEO As Well As Chief Bottle Washer
I spent the Easter weekend at the New Jersey shore with my mom. We had a great time and we got home a few hours ago. As soon as the car was unpacked, I came straight to my office. Just like returning to a “real” job after a few days…

One of the last projects I’ve had to do while I’m not working has been hanging over my head like the giant rain cloud that has positioned itself over Pennsylvania these days. WE ARE NOT SEATTLE — GO WEST OH DARK RAINCLOUD!!! Sorry. I’m back. The project I am finally…
I Love My Car
I applied for a job over the weekend, so that makes it a little easier to discover no new leads this morning. Not really but I’m trying to stay positive once again at the beginning of a new week. I’ve applied for ten jobs this month which is a huge…
