TAN#155: TANkful Yanti's still alive (Page 36)

Morning, TAN. 

So here I am... Day 1 of 2 weeks where I just, I don't know, sit at my desk? This is going to be a LONG couple of weeks, with many, many gratuitous days off, long breaks (from TANning, since I plan on doing zero work), leaving early, and showing up late. 

Ulgh. I didn't like this place when I DID have a job here. Why are they making me do NOTHING for the next 2 weeks.

Haha, thanks. I don't think it'll be bad, because I will have absolutely no qualms about doing anything here now. I am openly going to be looking for jobs, being on BT, which I tried to hide before, etc. I just think I would rather do it in the comfort of my own home, sans pants, than be here, putting in my hours just because they expect me to. I fear I'm going to be getting pretty bored.

I was back at my parents' place for the weekend, helping out with a big Christmas open house that we do every year. Therefore it hasn't really started yet. But I imagine by about 8:30 this morning, I will be into it pretty heavily. 

I actually did look at jobs on Thursday night, though (probably a sign). There seems to be enough jobs up here that look interesting, just a matter of actually getting them. First up, though, is making the resume purdy. And figuring out what I want to do with the rest of my life.

That would be awesome, Jim! Enjoying where you work is definitely at least almost as important as enjoying what you do. I am learning that slowly, but surely. the next place I go, I will enjoy both (hopefully).

I really, really hate writing up a resume. Everyone tells me to put specific numbers on my job, like cost savings that I have influenced, etc. Problem is I have never, ever dealt with the money on any project I have worked on. I have been a very specific designer, and people higher up the chain have dealt with the $. I really wish I knew how to write a kick-azz resume.

For work or do you need help? How are you doing man?

Sup, Elaine, and Cord.

So apparently I should probably have a French resume as well... crap, that could take a while.

partir en courant

Done.

Hahaha, nice. But we tend to conjugate our verbs here  

I actually already found a pretty decent job that I am exactly qualified for, which I think I would really like, but the posting is in French, so I should PROBABLY apply in French. Damned government jobs.
