Just in time for the holidays I'll be officially employed again next week and I am so very excited! It'll be nice to get my brain working again. I think it will be difficult at first, which is probably the most exciting part of it all. I am hoping to come home exhausted mentally.
I've learned a lot from these past few weeks. Sometimes I think people doubt others when they do life changing and career changing things. It wasn't easy to put myself out there and find places that were willing to look past the fact that I took a detour for a few years working with kids with Autism. It was so rewarding and taught me so much about how everyone learns at different paces and in different ways. The the key is EVERYONE can learn.
Another thing that is really positive that I wanted to share is that there ARE jobs in Rochester. There are jobs that pay good money in Rochester. And there are more than a few of these jobs. My dad told me the other night that the northeast is going through a rough time right now. A lot of people are moving south, leaving less good workers in the northeast. According to my dad, it is really difficult to find people that are hard working that want to GO to work on a daily basis. He finds people that say "I can only work "x" amount of days a week" or people that come to work drunk or just don't show up and don't care about the consequences. He said it is a great time for people with a good head on their shoulders to find a job. In my experience, he is right. I found plenty of places looking for someone and I had a few interviews right away!
So I think that was a huge rant, but oh well.
The bottom line is that if you want to do something- it doesn't matter what it is... put your mind to it and you can make it happen :)
That's all the optimism I have for one day :-D

Well said. I think a lot of people blame the economy on their own laziness.
I'm happy for you! :)
Congrats my friend! Your dad is right, there are many places out there looking for good workers. I can't stress enough how difficult that is. kjm (says bart) This applies towards internships as well. I have yet to find a good admin or intern. Ug!
