On January 15 of this month, my position was eliminated and I lost my job. It has been a hard slug, but I landed a job about a month ago, and am starting my new position today.
I've held a job most of my life. I started with a paper route when I was 8, and worked pretty much the entire time through high school and college. I've taken my work seriously; regardless of the job I held. I always felt it important to provide a return on the investment that my employer was making on me.
Today, that engagement begins anew with a new employer in a whole new location. And I am so ready to go back to work that I can't wait. While the work involved in a finding a new job (and make no mistake in that - it is damned hard work) and activity around some consulting I did helped bide my time, these past couple of weeks since my offer has been received and things have been brought to a stop on the job search have been long, long days.
I have a lot more to offer somebody, and I look forward to returning to a position as a productive member of society.
Here we go...
