I regret to inform you...
Just to warn people in case anything actually comes of it, I'm applying for a bunch of out of province jobs right now. I was hoping to avoid having to do this, but I really need to get on a career track with some place soon. Unfortunately this is likely going to entail me going out west where there are actually jobs and stuff, since nearly every avenue that I've explored here in NS has come up empty. It is still my intention to eventually make it back here since this is really where I want to end up, but it seems that I'm going to have to start down the career path elsewhere before it leads back here.
