Adventures in Jobless Obscurity
Here it is. The first post on my blog. I had been wanting to start a blog for quite some time but, could not decide on a name, theme, etc. Suddenly, I lose my job and this idea popped into my head. (The job loss was sudden, not the idea) Why not track my time in the job-free world? Here I will post my feelings, prospects, adventures, and the state of my life as I move through this new phase.
I have been jobless since July 16th. I was not sad to lose my job because I was not so fond of it anyway. The only thing that I enjoyed at that torture chamber were the people. Most the people there I truly miss seeing every day, especially my little asshole Andy. Andy was my office mate. She and I were friends before I started working at The Chamber (good title isn't it?) and I believe we will be friends for a long time to come here on the other side.
So, how are my prospects you ask? Well, the job market is as bad as They say. Who are they? The man I suppose. There is a whole lot of nothing in the paper. I have updated my resume on Monster but have seen nothing. The same story is unfolding on Yahoo jobs. The truth is, I am not sure what I want to do next so it makes everything I see that much less interesting. Should I go back to school? For what? Should I write a novel? Go work on a fishing boat in Alaska? Try to become a professional competitive eater? Be a Latin ballroom dance instructor? Run off to a tropical island and live in a tent and eat coconuts and bananas all day? So many options. If you have any suggestions on things you think I would be good at please let me know. All options will be considered.
Still not rich or famous, Dez
