Ok let’s bring this up to date. Monday 13th: Go thru my emails from the Job search agents I have set up on several head hunter sites/company sites. Check my group (Gray Matters!”) On LinkedIn. Member ship still low (we need more members if we are to be heard). Got call from a head hunter about a job (this new their calling me). She ask me if I wanted to try for a IT job (did she think I was going say no. At his point I would work in Afghanistan). At 01:30 when with the kids to pick up free food (mostly bread and some veggies). 3:00 we get back wet from sweat (the sun is not to be taken lightly where I live). Back to the internet looking for work. Tuesday 14th: Another head hunter calls while I was going thru my job search emails. Asked me to rework my resume to add in mortgage experience ( I only have 3 months experience on that when I worked for mortgage broker). I told him I do not lie but, told him I would put down I had some experience with mortgage and Stock information systems (two years in computer operations at large stock agency). Sent him the reworked résumé and went to back to the emails. Later he calls again for another job and he sends me my resume back to me for my ok. Because the company doing the hiring wants it in the format he sent back to me. It looks ok and he didn’t add any thing to it. So I tell him go for it. Wednesday 15th: Pay what bills I can with what I have and save out some money to buy 2 new tires for truck. I am riding on my spare (one of those half tires) and the other tire will go soon. Have not heard back from the head hunters or the bank that holds the mortgage on the house. Go thru my emails again and at around 5:00 go with family to free dinner that is held every Wednesday night. Come home after ward, spent some time with family and kids before going to my PC and check emails for jobs. O and to finally update my blog.
