It's been a while! I guess that just means you get the quick summary of the past month, since the events are no longer fresh in my mind ( Read more... )

Well, as I somewhat anticipated, I was laid off today. I knew it was a matter of time, and suspected I'd be next in line after the last few lay-offs. Most of the departments are run by a single person, and mine, as slow as it was, had three people, so I had a feeling it was coming. I'm a little bummed, in theory, but it's somewhat of a relief. I ( Read more... )

Still on the job hunt. Might have an in, which I'm excited about! I received an automated email for a job posting with Jacobs, but whenever I tried to apply, the site was down. I Facebooked an old colleague of mine, asking if she knew an email address I could send my resume. The site was up shortly after, so I applied and updated her. She then ( Read more... )

Welcome to another monthly peek into Tess' life! I have been experiencing a lot of stress lately, but things are starting to shape up. The past eight months were bookend-ed with two periods of unemployment (about two months in total), and inbetween that, I was working for a temp agency, with less pay than what I've been making the past 3-4 years ( Read more... )

I went camping this past weekend - lots o' fun was had by all! It was mizraelle, Amanda, Kevin and I. We got there Saturday right after lunch, and it rained as soon as we pitched the tent (good thing we decided to do that right away). We hid out for the afternoon, playing Crazy Eights and Scrabble, until the rain finally died down. We were stuck beside a ( Read more... )

Happy November NaNo-month folks! I don't have much new to report, but I figured I'd drop in and say hi ( Read more... )
