meganursulaBeing out of work (when one wants to be working) is an incredibly hard thing to do. Aside from the soul sucking drudgery of looking for a new job, the mental toll of being an involuntary non-wage-earner has lots of time to fester while you are sitting around aimlessly. Learning to fill that time in a way that you enjoy, and which is rewarding on your personal productivity scale is quite a challenge.
Actually, that latter is true even when you are not an involuntary non-wage-earner. I am continuously trying to develop the organizational and motivational skills required to feel productive when left up to my own devices. Its hard.
Just a thought about that.
I am thankful that my own job appears to be secure right now. In fact, this winter sees me ramping up my responsibilities, which is terrifying, but interesting and challenging as well. Thus far i am enjoying the new portions of my work.
In other news, my department at APL is currently looking to hire a bad-ass admin assistant. Said person will be active in grant writing and financial accounting as well as other administrative tasks. If you, or someone you know, is such a person, and wants to get a job in Seattle, let me know.
