Jesse, you even had a meeting! How can you possibly be expected to work more?
That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Have I posted this bit from a job posting before?
Pluses
Experience in software industry
Experience with Apple/Mac
Enthusiasm for outdoor recreation (boating, hunting, camping, off-roading, snowmobiling)
The company works in the outdoor recreation industry, so it's not out of left field, but every time I see that, I think, "...probably not the job for me."

Oy, I just saw that the planned safety power outage is supposed to start 12:01 tomorrow morning and last through Thursday afternoon! I thought it was just gonna be a few hours. Luckily, my house shows on the map as if it will not be affected, I hope that turns out to be true

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, you even had a meeting! How can you possibly be expected to work more?
I had a meeting that ended at 4:30 and had to work more after THAT!

OK then!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Cindy, I hope all went well with your son's surgery.
Gud, please, please get into therapy. Your wife is abusive and you need help seeing it and dealing with it. You are a worthwhile and good person.
I've entered the Depression stage of the Five Stages of Grieving. Denial was last weekend, Anger was yesterday, and for efficiency I'm skipping Bargaining. I have no skills that anyone wants to pay for, and no one is offering pay for anything that I want to do. If I had the opportunity to do whatever I wanted, I don't even know what I'd do. Six years until I can take early retirement, which I wasn't planning to do, but hey, things change.

I figure that if I get laid off I'll hunt down some local insurance companies that use our program and see if they'd like a consultant. Did your job involve contact with anyone outside your company that might be interested?

Zen, tell me to delete if this is too detailed, but you were a journal editor, right? Talk to Steph about remote editing work. I know she's in medical editing, which is somewhat different, but still.

Sorry for pointing out the obvious, then. I just really don't think you're unemployable, and I want you to get a fabulous new job and rub it in the faces of your former employers.
