  • WOOHOOO! I got a job!

    I just got a great job. This really nice engineering school needed an assistant director for their learning center. I applied, I interviewed and I got the job! Starting salary: $40,000/year + benefits.

    'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

                              It took me almost 5 months. I graduated in May with my MS. I started looking right after graduation. I sent out my resume. I went to a couple interviews but nothing worked until this interview I had last week.
