nyykiWhat is with everyone in the pagan community right now? It seems like it is coming apart at the seams.
I'm not going to get into the witch war B&B started in reaction to "the website" -- I've agreed to not discuss Club Maeven in my journal. (Besides, Lynxfeather's latest journal entry nails it on the head. http://www.lynxfeather.net/journal/2001/03-06-2001-2.html) Suffice to say that there are a lot of people out of sorts in general right now. And Mercury isn't even in retrograde.
I'm just glad my group is stable right now.
The technology markets are seriously whacked right now, so no one is hiring. The recruiters admit to me that they are in a major slump. There was less than one page of computer job classifieds in the Dallas Morning Right-Wing Totalitarian Pravda on Sunday.
Of course, this is totally foreign to the s/o -- I'm obviously lazy and making this up. The s/o wants me to start cold calling to technology companies. (Opinions?)
I'm to the point where I am going to take a waitstaff position to make ends meet. It sucks, but we need the money.
What is it going to take to get some balance in my life? What am I doing to create this stuff? And how can I stop doing or start doing what it takes?

Date: 2001-03-07 01:47 pm (UTC)Consulting Partners in Dallas, Texas, is SUPERB for people wanting to break into technical writing. Moontiger, me, Jesse... we all got our career changed by talking to them. Give them a try. And another consulting friend of mine SWEARS by dice.com.
Good luck. I admire the fact that you are willing to take a shit job in the interim. That speaks well of you...
