So Wednesday marked three months of unemployment. It was ALSO my first day at my (temp) job! How appropriate. Let me back up, for an official professional update.
In the three months I've been back, I've been slowly exploring job opportunities and applied for a couple along the way. One, we'll call XYZZ, turned me down, and the other, after a week long "trial", wasn't quite what I was hoping for so I withdrew my candidacy. THEN I was in a little funk, feeling like I had some great momentum going which ultimately led to feelings of failure, confusion, and misdirection. Just as I was getting back on the saddle, scheduling more informational interviews and researching various companies/ organizations, XYZZ called me asking if I was interested in a 3-4 days a week, 3 month temp assignment. In my eyes this was perfect: structure, human interaction (sorry, Desmond), and still time to continue the job search! Very pleased. First few days at XYZZ were great! Working part time rocks. If only I could get an extremely high paying part time job...
