So I quit my job...

As you are probably aware, Anita resigned from her position. We will post her position ASAP, however, in the interim we need to figure out the best way to divide up her work.

So I quit my job. Not without a sliver of looking back. But still looking forward to the future. The UN hasn't called, and at this point I am not so sure they ever will. But someone else did and I seemed to be appreciating their language a little bit more than I was with the present. It was a little more in line with the job I had for a month and quit it to accept the present one. Except this one has some advantages over that one in terms of working space and job location. That one had the gift of flexiblity of time and the good 'ole laptop. But you can't win them all.

There are 20 million jobs in America, and about 10 million jobs in GA, and out of those 10 million, there are about 999999 shitty ones, and I am currently making the rounds through all of them. If you get a good conmpany, with stability, you get a company that is living in the ancient ages, that works with paper models and uses an IBM computer system with a trusty fax machine. The company is stable and your job is as about as secure as the fax machine but their methods of doing work are antiquated, making work a little routine. Then, you get the dotcom company that is savvy, and swift and modern, but it's quick to fire people in the elevator because it doesn't like how they look. It throws parties at the drop of a hat, and every meeting is catered by a top restaurant and it constantly sends its staff to retreats and meetings abroad, traveling business class of course. But in that same year, it lays off its' entire helpdesk.

In totality, I cannot win. There is no winning point, where I can hang my hat and say, I am just as happy and content to settle for said company with its somewhat shitty ways or somewhat shitty job duties, or whatever shitty circumstance they want to throw at me. There may be such a time. Maybe when I am too old, or just fed-up. And I can tell you now, I am getting close to it. But for now, I am looking for that needle in a haystack of perfection, of job satisfaction, that 1 job out of the 10 million that sets itself apart.
