I had a long, and interesting post, about my job history and my life and about how, on December 31, 2011, I'm losing my job in a company layoff. But as I read it I realized that it was way to specific about jobs, locations, duties, uniforms, and it felt like if ANYONE who every knew me for a little while would know that it was me. Silly, right?
None of my good church-going friends would read a blog like, mine, but still, it felt very exposed so I pulled it out of the schedule and now you are reading this one.
On December 31, 2011, I'm losing my job in a company layoff. Seriously, it's the best possible outcome.
I've been bored senseless in my job lately. Repetitive audits, boring software design, people who don't care, an absentee boss who teaches me nothing. It all adds up to the blahs. I should have quit 2 years ago. I should have pulled the plug on my dead-end job and moved on, but I didn't and that's OK, because now I get a severance package that will care for me while I get a new job.
I know that a lot of people are struggling with employment issues right now. I feel incredibly lucky to be moving on the way I am. I am lucking for something new, a different way to use my skills than just keeping the computers running and making the auditors happy. I'm looking for a creative company that does interesting things and wants to pay me a lot of money to do it.
The only down side is that if I actually have to work in this new job, then it will seriously cut in to my blogging and chat time. Do you think I can negotiate that into my new contract?
