almost forgot
I almost forgot to write today's blog entry but here it is. Sure it's 11pm but it's better late than never, right? It'll be short because we just got back from meeting friends and I'm ready for bed. I had a job interview today that went fine, but I'm concerned about the commute length so unless the offer comes in with a nice salary behind it, I'm not too sure. Anyway, I'll worry about it when/if I get an offer.
It's starting to settle in that I'm unemployed and it sucks because I basically feel useless. I would think I'd be enjoying some time off but it kind of feels like I'm letting people down. I just wish I knew I'd have a job ready to go soon so I could stop worrying about the whole thing. It's not like I'm actively freaking out, rather, it's just sitting in the back of my mind and I'm reminded of it quite a bit. It's funny, I never thought I'd be this motivated to go to work.
The good part of being unemployed is I get to enjoy the day without the hassle of waking up early or being tired. I get to sleep in, watch daytime tv (like the 11am SportsCenter!), play games and make and eat lunch at lunchtime. I check the job sites every few hours but otherwise I lounge around and soak up the nothingness. What I need to do is motivate myself to clean up our apartment that has been a disaster area since the wedding but that might be asking a lot.
I met with two job recruiters yesterday and the thing that bothers me about them is they have copies of my resume, they look it over and invite me in to talk and before I can talk to them when I stop by their office, they hand me all this paperwork to fill out that is basically all of the information they have in my resume. Does the word redundant mean anything to them?
