Job hunt update

Things are going pretty well, by which I mean I'm not urping from stress. I'm actually kind of enjoying the whole job scene, but Rachal will be jittery until I find something permanent, I think.

The day I got fired, I landed at another store of the same name, doing freelance work for the former owner of my ex-company. His computer operator had a funeral to go to, so I'm working there at least 'til Tuesday, and maybe longer. (Since my once and current boss wants two computer operators at his new store, my occasional jaunts to doctors' offices wouldn't be the catastrophe they were at the store I was so recently working. Clear so far?) I'm delaying my unemployment claim with each day worked, but also padding the time I can keep searching, so it's all coming out in the wash.

Plus I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a temp assignment to come through that would handily pad our bank account. I should learn more Monday: it'd last several weeks, for fifty-plus hours a week ... at twenty-three dollars per hour. If the hypothetically permanent offer at the sign shop I've been at can wait for that long, I'd prefer to stack those jobs in order ... which would make getting fired an ultimately profitable enterprise.

More later.
