With my job that is. I think that we have people bailing left and right, with the only ones that are staying put are the ones that insane. Guess I’m one of the insane ones for now.

I do have an interview next week. The “opportunity” I spoke of earlier. Not quite sure what to think about it yet. Can’t get a job description other than a very general one. It would be a great company from what I hear, but a very challenging job. Some cleaning house first, then setting up many policies and procedures. Now, do I even have a good suit to wear? Might need to visit a suit shop this weekend and see what I can buy off the rack. I hear S & K has some good off the rack stuff. At least I can wear it to church when I’m done.

I really don’t want to sound negative about the job possibility. I would love to be in a better company, where people are not treated as a commodity. Guess I’m stuck in the 80’s where that was the life I lived. Did I work my tail off for them? Absolutely. Did they pay me well? Absolutely not. Not because they chose not to, but because the companies were young and growing and reinvesting all the capital into themselves. Did it pay off? Absolutely. I’m in a much better position now because of the sacrifices I made then. Having the kids, having my kids in particular would make it impossible to do that over now. To date, we’ve been lucky with jobs. Guess it’s that go-get-em attitude we both have and a bit of luck. Mostly the attitude. Work harder than anyone else and eventually it’ll come back to reward you.

TGIAF (almost friday)…
