I wonder if there are some steps in mental preparation for a job search that you could parlay into development goals - deveoping networking mojo, polishing up some marketable skill that could make you more well-rounded as a candidate, something...
We use the latest in scientific technology and state-of-the-art weaponry and you, if I understand correctly, poke them with a sharp stick.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yikes, shrift. I hope the mindfulness helps!
I should have meditated this morning, because people are complaining all over the place about how I haven't answered their goddamn tickets. I have four more days to answer your stupid ticket, junior employee. Don't start with me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Sort of related to the FB discussion from yesterday, someone I have blocked because she only posts about the skincare products she sells DM'd me to see if I knew people she could recruit.

I used to put a future goal was to retire. Not received well.

We aren't allowed to have future goals anymore other than our job description

OMG I would love that. I have no interest in advancement in this company. I am not bonus eligible and have no ambition.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm buying my ticket to New York for mid-July -- shouldn't have waited this long, but with the uncertainty about husband's job, it's delayed us. Even right now, I'm just buying a ticket for me, and he'll either go to NY or not depending on whether he starts a job around then. So now I'm playing airport merry-go-round, trying to figure out what's cheap. My mom did remind me about JetBlue, which I've never flown because it only has a direct flight from Houston to NY.

Last week we were asked to submit a paragraph on our career goals here in the company. I've been trying to shift into another department directly related to tech support for three years, I'm not sanguine about my ability to develop my career. But I wouldn't mind retiring from here (only another ten years or so! I'm old!)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My acting boss told me I have no opportunity for advancement already, and he won't be my boss anymore as of July 5, so he really can fuck off. I wrote some stuff and we'll see what he has to say. On the upside, the feedback to me from my team made me cry in a good way.

I literally just sent my friend who is a dr and starts working at a new hospital a recent picture and told him to find me a boyfriend. Straight up pimpin'. So you all might as well be in on it to. I think long distance relationship would be great for me cause I am online all the time anyway and I do plan on moving in 3 years. So go forth and make a match. Payment in baked goods and or random objects I have lying about.
