w00t w00t w00t!
I’ve got a new job!
Which is both AWESOME, and sort of sad. I really liked being unemployed. 😀 I cooked a lot, did some work in the garden, took a bunch of photos, started writing up a game design I’ve been thinking about for a while, and put up some trim in the downstairs.
It’ll be nice to have the salary, not feel like the pursestrings are so tight, etc. But man, oh, man – the free time. I’ve gotta say, this honestly couldn’t have worked out better. I (will) have had almost a month off, got to do a bunch of stuff, and will be working again doing stuff I love doing.
Admittedly, I’m coming in on the tail end of a project I don’t know too much about, and took a pay cut (though not a terrible one), and basically, things are … pretty darned good. It’s all very strange. I almost don’t know what to make of it.
😀
A couple years ago I was laid off for about two months during the summer. That was the best summer I’ve had in a long, long time, but I was constantly stressed out about finding a new job. Once I had a job, I wished I would’ve waited a bit longer to find one. Uncertainty about your future sucks. I wish I would’vd had a crystal ball that told me exactly when I’d find a new job, so I could’ve relaxed a bit more, instead of worrying the whole time.
Congrats on the new job!
congrats!!
it must be a nice relief..
where are you going?
Congrats! I’m in awe of your job-finding-abilities.
This is very cool.
I can’t _wait_ to take some time off.
