Just got home from work. Work is hard when you had a nice six months vacation.

I have to say that finding a job was not easy. I did the whole internet application and resume thing and got nowhere. I had the make some calls to find out who the hiring manager was and called him directly. He told me he was just about to make an offer to someone. I told him what I have to offer and that's what got me the job (after three interviews with upper management). The process took almost one month.

IMO, the whole internet job app thing is BROKEN and a waste of time.

I am tired! I've done the job before so I kinda remember how to do it. I just need to get back in the swing of things. Like getting up early and taking only one hour for lunch. I had it good at my last position. Maybe too good. I got lazy.

I feel like I am neglecting my Hi-Fi gear. I am just too tired after dinner. My day feels so short. I had to work today too. I hope I get to relax in front of my Hi-Fi tomorrow, at least for an hour or so.

Mike....at least you have a job, listening to the system now should give you more quality time and enjoy it more.

Glad things are working out for you
