So my joke at the smoke shop on Oct 31st was, "Guess what I am for Halloween?" Answer, "Unemployed!"
That killed my Outer Banks drum fishing trip as I lit up my network that I was available. I'm in the IT industry so recruiters came out of the network. Most of the recruiters were completely clueless. Turned down one offer the week after I was laid off. Couldn't tell you why, but it was a gut feeling. As I get older I am listening to my gut more often then not.
Well have a dozen or so recruiters ringing off the hook I ended up taking a job on Friday that came from a friend that introduced me to the company where he employed. Excited about the company. Good group of folks. Celebrated with Old Weller 107 and Mississippi River. :cheers:
Back to the commute tomorrow! :affraid:
Now to focus on the Secret Santa victim, I mean recipient! :santa:
