Looking for a job

Well, I am starting to get run down over my present job. I have a lot of things I want to do on Saturdays but can't, because I work then. I have approached my boss several times with ideas on how to get me out of that day, so I don't have to constantly take it off, but she's not listening.

So, Tuesday night I put up a basic resume on Monster, and yesterday out of the blue I got a call from a recruiter. I was not prepared to get a call that fast! I also thought with my record (being on disability and out of the IT work force for 6 years now) I was not a very appealing candidate. Anyway, I plan on meeting with him next week and seeing if these jobs he has open can meet my salary requirements. I need at least as much as I get with disability and my job pay, just to break even. I am barely scraping by as it is, I don't need to go to work just to take an unaffordable pay cut.

Keep your fingers (toes, etc,.) crossed. I'll keep you informed as to how it goes.

This may or may not affect my blogging, I don't know if I'll go to an evening format, or just get up at oh-dark-thirty (military slang for the middle of the night) and do it then.

Anyway, I have a lot to do between now and next week, I better get on it.
