Job Search – day 33 – trying to be light

Sorry for the lack of posts, but I’m finding that job searching isn’t leaving a lot of energy for blogging.

Here’s the update – I’m still looking.  My networking is starting to work better, but it hasn’t led to anything solid yet.

In outplacement, they tell you that you have a job – finding a new job IS your day job now.  I’m not finding that particularly motivating (who wants THIS job?), but it does bring up some fun concepts if you think outside the box.

Reasons that the Job of Searching for a Job is Good

  1. You usually have a really short commute.
  2. Parking at the “office” is really easy to find (for many people)
  3. The camera is the size of a camcorder, silent in operation, non-contact, emits no radiation and Imaging can be repeated as often as required. viagra online consultation Poorly controlled blood sugar levels cause damage to sildenafil tablets india the blood vessels to the penis to increase blood flow.

  4. You can bring your pets to work (most of the time)
  5. The cafeteria is always serving what you want for lunch (or at least what you bought)
  6. You get to set your own hours
  7. You have complete control over your schedule, and what you do at any given moment
  8. You are your own boss (and you are your own janitor)
  9. The office is not too hot or too cold, or you can fix it

Don’t get me wrong – I’d rather not have those advantages.  But at least there is a tiny lighter side.

  2. Good points, Mark! Most of those also apply to my current situation freelancing/self-employed… it’s not always easy, but it is what you make it to an extent. I would add, “You are your own motivator” to your list – for better or for worse, we can choose/change our task list to reflect our mindset that day.
