Must be the season....shrewreaderJune 14 2005, 21:25:33 UTC
My shrink, last week, was asking me where we were going with therapy -- I gave her my patent-pending forest fire analogy. Your overall goal is containment, and a good chunk of the time you spend going and ringing in bits of it and putting out hot spots.
But one of the hot spots lately is what I want to -DO.-
And lately, the question is answered with a shrug and 'fuck if I know.'
But I'll say this: I'd like to not have a job that gives me anxiety attacks, and a boss that's not nuts.

Huh. I'd have said the overall goal was redirection: getting the fire into the fireplace, thanks, and the furnace, and the rubbish can. You *definitely* deserve a better job than you had, and much luck with the interviews! {{hugs}} (Did you ever post that? I didn't see it...?)

Oh, he's interested, but he's price-shy. he =needs= someone whom he'd have to pay at least $18 an hour (and really, for that commute, I'd want $20), but he's -been- paying $11 and has seriously outgrown the incumbent (who has outgrown the position).
So, a compromise 90 day offer was suggested, and we'll see if he takes it, but I might *crosses fingers* have an interview for more money, same sort of job and shorter commute tomorrow, so it might also be moot.

This shrew goes for dried fruit only from now on.
Data on how today's interviews went on my LJ.
