Life
Today has been pretty up. My supervisor from the school district, Theresa, sent me an email today. Previously I had asked her if she could write a letter of recommendation for me. She has been having a lot going on outside of all the work crap and hasn't had a chance to let me know what is going on. Today she sent me an email with the letter attached, for my approval (I laugh at that). Here is the general jist:
To Whom This Concerns:
I am very pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Pickle. As the Director of Fiscal Services, I supervised Ms. Pickle, who held the Accounting Technician position, from November 2003 until May 2005. I was new to school accounting, and Pickle held nothing back in helping me acclimate to the new procedures. I soon realized that she had proper accounting training and was working beyond her job expectations. Pickle often volunteered to help in analyzing data, research funding methodologies, creating forms, and writing procedures.
Pickle proved to be a bright, resourceful member of the District, and had the respect of the entire office. She has a very creative mind and is able to articulate ideas in an practical fashion. Her achievements were not limited to what was assigned, but always went beyond, illustrating her ability to see beyond the matter at hand. Her contributions were always appreciated and valued.
Our District was very sorry to see Pickle leave our employ. Her intelligence and creativity are not easily replaced. Pickle would be a great asset to any business that hires her.
I wish so much that I could just work somewhere with all the great people I've worked with in the past, Theresa included. Anyhow so that was a positive thing today, which I really, really needed. Tonight we have to do the stuff we should've done last night but I was unable to. Go to storage, get rid of the little storage, and dump more of the attic holdings into the new storage. After we get home I'll devote some time to the job hunt and the housing situation. xinejaquette, khinderer, angille and I are seriously thinking about getting a living situation up there together. The thing is that both couples are only looking for temporary housing and it makes good financial sense for both of us to do it this way. The biggest obstacle that we can foresee is the fact that Jamers and I have 2 cats, and they have 1 cat and 1 guinea pig. We'll see if it works out. It would be cool to have a living situation where things are shared and info and ideas can have greater feedback.
Anyhoo, work is calling. Toodlies.
